Sam Allardyce says Leeds need experience. Of course he does. But this potential Championship XI is full of talent. LewisOldham99 puts it together.
. Well, that won’t matter *if* this XI lines up in the Championship next season.
The club’s supporters may be down in the dumps following relegation, but the calibre of this youthful XI indicates that the good vibes could return to Elland Road pretty swiftly…The France U21 international suffered a severe crisis of confidence in 2022/23 and Allardyce replaced him with his old Everton pal – Joel Robles – for Leeds’ final four games.
He is good enough to justify them phasing out Luke Ayling and Rasmus Kristensen in favour of a younger upgrade at right-back.The imposing 20-year-old would have been a valuable option for Leeds during their fight to avoid the drop in 22/23, especially when you consider how poor they were without him in defence.because he scored a brace of headers in a debut win over Stoke City, though this match-winning performance admittedly made for superb viewing.
The versatile defender – who is equally as capable of playing at centre-back and wing-back – is fearless and he can be relied upon defensively more than most players his age. The midfielder is far more likely to get chances at Leeds than as part of the Todd Boehly circus at Stamford Bridge, so this 2021 move was wise from his perspective.
Leeds will do well to keep hold of the 21-year-old this summer but his freakish pace would give Championship defenders nightmares and he would be a major asset in the second tier.Like Summerville, ex-Arsenal academy product Greenwood showed flashes of promise during Leeds United’s relegation season. He delivered a potentially star-making moment with his stunning goal in his side’s 4-3 win over AFC Bournemouth in November.
