James makes 'dangerous' Man Utd admission as Welsh winger started to play 'safe' for Red Devils

The Wales international admits that he retreated into his shell at Old Trafford, with a move to Leeds presenting him with a clean slate

Daniel James admits fears over his lack of game time at Manchester United led to him taking "safe" options, with the Wales international conceding that he was playing a "dangerous" game prior to sealing a summer switch to Leeds.

The 23-year-old forward took in 74 appearances across two full seasons at Old Trafford, scoring nine goals, but he was never a guaranteed starter and faced fierce competition for places throughout his time with Premier League heavyweights.
