Maybe not yet but he's going the right way about it. I really love how he's right in the thick of all the celebrations and boosting other players, he seems to have a real connection with the club. | | | |

No |
Mills, Beattie, Taricco all ahead of him as a left back.
Plus plenty of others strong in that position too: Herman, Mings, Steve McCall… | | | |

We will never have a left back as good as Kevin Beattie | | | |

Had forgot about Herman.
All of those mentioned, plus Clapham, have at least done it at the highest level.
For whatever reason last year, our Leif looked a bit out of his depth at times. Albeit not to say he won't get there eventually. | | | |

who have actually done it in the PL
Leif in the end may do but he will need to improve his defensive game or just become a winger |  |

Not forgetting Colin Harper, in at the start of the Robson success story, different class defensively to Davis. | | | |

No. Can't shoot. Can't beat a defender. Can't defend very well. Is good at getting a cross in though although those have been quite poor of late | | | |

He came 9th equal in terms of chances created last season, and I think he was top for a defender.

Despite that, he didn't appear to attract Premier League interest, maybe because of his defensive qualities. On the other hand, you can't be bombing ahead in a poor Premier League team and hope to be defending very well at the same time.
But the answer to the question is no, and let's not forget Aaron Cresswell. [Post edited 9 Nov 2025 16:23]

If Leif had a capable midfielder or centre half playing behind him last season he would still be in the prem now.
He looked bad at defending because he had no cover at all, from anyone. | |

Absolutely love Leif from an attacking point of view. Brilliant player. But to be on any kind of 'Best of' list he has to improve defensively. He is outmuscled and beaten in 1 on 1s too frequently and still some questions marks on his back post defending.
Brilliant asset to our football club and a very important player. His energy and engine makes up for it at this level but to fulfil his full potential he has work to do. | |

One thing I have noticed this season is that the accuracy of his passing hasn't always been up to the same level as the last few seasons but maybe he is still getting to know the new players. Indeed, he is currently 52nd in terms of big chances created and 37th in terms of chances created, according to Fotmob.
