Attackers on the bench and defenders on the pitch, apart from the Cup matches.

I did predict that at some stage we were likely to have first team players unavailable and then we're starting non match fit players and saying "Sorry for blanking you all season, but please save our souls". :)

Here's hoping we set up to score and not grind.

That said - we may score and lose 4-1

Yes but, no but, we have to remember that on 20 December 1930, Leeds United beat Manchester United 5-0.

Both Okafor and Bijol have posted Instagram things highlighting the Manure game.

So people are assuming they are fit.

Possible

On the other hand equally possible they don't run their accounts and it's just the employee doing it for engagement

I think Bijol and Gudmundsson start personally.... Okafor can be rested because we have better

I know it's against the scum tonight,we really don't need a battering as goal diff is getting close ,but as other people say bigger fish to fry with the likes of Wolves,Bournemouth and Burnley and an F A cup match coming up so we need to protect players with injuries and close to suspension.
I really think a draw tonight would be a brill result after the weekend and teams near us have tough games coming up .
I also think the likes of Tanaka,Gnotto,longstaff,baunawn have got to turn up tonight cos I think they will start .

In the last 4 months 9 premier teams have hosted Leeds at their gaff.
Brentford, Sunderland, Liverpool, Newcastle, Everton, Chelsea, Villa ,Palace and West ham.
Only Newcastle,fortuitously ,could beat us.
We are virtually UNBEATABLE on the road as ManU will find out tonight.

Don't answer that

Okafor fit to start, they've rumaged around in the Leeds United discard pile and dragged out Buonanotte I see. I see Farke has joined me in the Longstaff is s**t group.

Never thought I'd say it, but I think I'd have preferred Longstaff over Aaronson here.

If Okafor plays well we can get something from this.

Not the worst lineup.

Time for someone to put a few onto DCLs napper.
