    Will admit to forgetting about Harrison. Swap him out for Rodrigo

    Available but I am one of the few who picks Cooper ahead of him at the moment

    I was thinking of a back three of him, Cooper and Llorente, why move Ayling out of position?

    tough tough game today .. Burnley will be up for it, they'll want the win badly .. take an away point today, important not to lose this one .. going to be a very different game to last season's 4-0 stroll, remember they gave Leeds a difficult game at ER .. lads will need to be on it from the off, must score first or face lots of sh1thousing if Burnley get the lead .. expect them to be nasty, but with break coming up Leeds should run them non stop for 95 mins

    Bielsa going back three with two wing backs today, same as Everton game .. expecting a battle and lots of hoof ball up to Wood, so wing backs will be important to stop crosses and help get Leeds counter attacks going

    c'mon Leeds!

    We can clearly see the problems of a small squad again here as only 2 first team players on the bench, the rest are kids from the U23s. Peed off about Junior as he was starting to look good and Klich only had one injury in 2 seasons which came late last season and now out again.

    Leeds 3-0 up with 20 minutes to play, no injuries and we give a Summerville and Gelhardt a chance

    that would be ideal, they can play with no pressure and terrorise the Burnley bashers

    Nice to be able to bring in two top Spanish internationals to replace them though.
