Rio Ferdinand has criticised Leeds United defender Stuart Dallas on BT Sport 1 (2:40pm, March 5, 2022) for the role he played in the defeat to Leicester City.
Leeds have suffered a 1-0 defeat to Leicester away from home at the King Power Stadium in the Premier League this afternoon.
Harvey Barnes scored the only goal of the match, and it came midway through the second half.
Dallas started at right-back for Leeds, and the Northern Ireland international was at fault.
Barnes got the better of Dallas easily, and former Leeds central defender Ferdinand believes that the ex-Brentford star should have done better.
The BT Sport pundit believes that Dallas should have forced Barnes into making a decision rather than stay still and allow him to come at him.

Ferdinand said: “He (Dallas) does nothing in the end. Everything he does here is probably the wrong thing.”
Disappointing result
In our view, it was a disappointing result for Leeds, who will feel that they should have taken at least a point from the encounter.
The Whites were very good defensively, except that one bad moment that cost them a goal.
Patrick Bamford could be back in the starting lineup soon, and that would be massive for Leeds.
Bamford is the best striker at Leeds, who needed someone like him to finish off the chances that they created against Leicester.
