Former footballer Peter Crouch has been impressed by Leeds United's start of the Premier League season and believes they will be looking up rather than down the table this season.
Leeds were promoted to the Premier League along with Fulham and West Brom for the 2020/2021 season. Currently, Marcelo Bielsa's side are 4th in the league table with 10 points. Their recent league game was against Aston Villa which ended in Leeds' 3-0 victory.
"I just think there's no fear with the teams that come up these days," Crouch told BT Sport.
"I remember back in the day when teams would come up and you'd just assumed they would go back down, but I just don't see that with Leeds at all.
"They could comfortably push for the top half. I know perhaps results haven't been perfect for them, but they've had Liverpool, they've had Man City and the only real problem they've had was the Wolves game.
"They would have probably expected to get a result from that, but they've played some difficult teams and they've given a really good account of themselves, considering they've just come up.
"They've pushed everyone to the limit in every game."
