    .....Is attack,play to our strengths.

    .........................Lonergan.....................
    .............Lees...Kisnorbo.....Bromby.....
    .................Clayton......Brown..............
    Snodgrass......Howson......Gradel..
    ....................................Nunez.............
    .......................McCormack.................

    At least it'll be entertaining! We've no decent fullbacks anyway,might as well not use them & win 5-4.

    Interesting, just think it's too much of a risk. Can't say that I've been overly impressed by either of Brown or Clayton's tackling and with neither being fantastically mobile, I can't see it coming off for us. We desperately need another full back, centre mid and striker. If we get that, I think we can surprise a few people!

    I must see a different player to you then LW88. I've been impressed with Clayton's mobility and he's done more than his fair share of tackling.

    As for Brown, I'm reserving judgement - the 2 games he's played have been like chalk and cheese. Against Saints he was like a bull in a china shop and nearly got sent off, and in the game against Bratfud he disappeared.

    Clayton was all over the place on Tuesday (in a good way). Brown did the tough, glamourless job of sitting back, stopping attacks and playing simple passes and he did it well.

    One word I definitely would use of Clayton is mobile. His tackling seems decent too for the more lightweight partner in the midfield. Brown definitely needs to show an improvement or no doubt we'll get 'impressive' loanee Jake Livermore in to replace him.

    Don't get me wrong, I like Clayton. Just don't see him as our midfield linch-pin.

    I think that's EXACTLY what he is,our midfield linch-pin,very impressive.
    At the time they used to say that when John Sheridan & Ian Snodin are buzzing Leeds perform. I think the same will be said of Clayton & Brown.

    The best from of defence is to sack Andy O'Brien with immediate effect.
