Leeds are set for their first pre-season game tomorrow.
Leeds United play their first pre-season game tomorrow against Forest Green Rovers.
Much will be made of the team new boss Marcelo Bielsa selects… but going off last year’s first friendly under Thomas Christiansen, it is not worth over-analysing.
Christiansen’s first pre-season game as Leeds boss came against Guiseley, and here is a look at the XI he selected.
Green, Denton, Cooper, Diagouraga, O’Connor, Gomes, Bridcutt, Klich, Roofe, Doukara, Antonsson.
Of the 11, only three players are available for selection for Leeds tomorrow.
Rob Green, Liam Bridcutt, Toumani Diagouraga and Souleymane Doukara were all let go before last summer’s transfer window close.
Tyler Denton and Paudie O’Connor have just been sent out on loan by Bielsa, with Marcus Antonsson and Madger Gomes sold.
Just Liam Cooper, Mateusz Klich and Kemar Roofe remain open for selection.
The 11 Bielsa picks tomorrow should certainly not get too comfortable.
