The Sheffield Wednesday manager Jos Luhukay has a positive dilemma on his hands ahead of Leeds United’s visit.
Sheffield Wednesday’s performance against Aston Villa on Saturday should, in theory, make Jos Luhukay’s upcoming Leeds United selection fairly straightforward.
From one to 11 – or 8 to 42 as Wednesday lined up at Villa Park – the Owls were superb in securing arguably their greatest away result of the Dutchman’s tenure.
But with Fernando Forestieri and (potentially) Jordan Thorniley back from suspension and injury respectively, Luhukay has an albeit positive dilemma on his hands ahead of Leeds’ visit to Hillsborough on Friday.
If this writer was a betting man, both of those players can expect to start the Yorkshire derby on the substitutes’ bench, which could also feature first-team regulars like Liam Palmer, Lucas Joao and Atdhe Nuhiu – not to mention Josh Onomah, the England Under-21 international signed on loan from Tottenham Hotspur last month.
