Leeds have won two and drawn two this season
Jayden Bogle insisted that Leeds “will not get carried away”, despite climbing to third place in the Premier League with a dominant 4-1 win over Newcastle.

Leeds wreaked havoc at Elland Road, where Bogle was credited with the second goal after a header by Dominic Calvert-Lewin – who himself scored to make it 3-0 – while an own goal by Sean Steur and a goal by Noah Okafor completed the goal show.
Daniel Farke’s men are still unbeaten in the top flight this season and are now in third place, while inflicting their first defeat of the season on Newcastle.
On Leeds’ ambitions, Bogle told Sky Sports: “At the moment we are taking it game by game, we are not getting carried away.
“Everyone is ambitious in their own way, but as a group we stay focused and concentrate on the next game.”
Leeds continue to impress in 2026
Indeed, Leeds’ success this season stretches back to the start of the year, with few teams in better form than them in 2026.
Only Arsenal (52), Manchester City (50), Manchester United (45) and Bournemouth (37) have taken more Premier League points in 2026 than Leeds United (35). The Whites have only one defeat in their last 13 league games (six wins, six draws).
Bogle added: “It’s about working and having an understanding of the players and playing with them.
“Dom [Calvert-Lewin] is in the middle and competing for everything, and to get players next to and under him is huge for us. It paid off tonight.
“We worked on rotation. JJ [James Justin] went a little higher and wider sometimes, which opened up the pocket for me to get into it.
“Dom [Calvert-Lewin] occupies two centre-backs. It’s about getting into an area where the ball can end up. We tried a few different patterns and movements we’ve been working on in training to create space.”
“We wanted to start well today, get the fans with us and get them going. We did that at first, and then it was about maintaining that and keeping the energy high.
“It was a tough game, a lot of running, it was physically demanding. They [Newcastle] are a top team, they can hurt you at any time.”
