Pretty much agree with that line up, especially the Pugh and White situation. I think Nunez should replace Howson, scored 5 goals and loves playing in the center, he'll be well up for it and adds more attacking threat

I really, really hope o'brien doesn't play.....otherwise we're in deep doo doo !

Shows how over-reliant we are on the same players does that. We need Howson to come to the party in what has been a very average season.

I too would start with Becchio.

I think this is the last chance saloon for AOB. If he is poor in this match, I would try my hardest to get rid - along with Bromby, Parker and Bruce. We have a lot of deadwood in defence.

for some reason i have a feeling that AOB will be a completely different player. Well he couldn't get much worse!

perfect chance for the experienced PK and AOB to prove to leeds fans theyve still got what it takes to play for leeds, they must both feel miffed that 2 guys aged 20 and 24 are dislodging them when they are both in their early 30s so this is a great opportunity to prove they still know what to do. nugent, beckford, king, and whoeverelse lesta have at their goalscoring disposal will be a tough test

I think i have to agree with dropping howson. Gone missing in games far too many times this season, and as a leader on the pitch. That has a huge effect on the rest of the team. But Larry wont drop his golden boy ...cos no matter what he does (or doesnt in most cases so far this season), the sun will shine out of his a**e. Give him a few matches on the bench. Might just give him a bit of a boot up the jacksy he needs.

Agreed completely Wasted.

Totally disagree about Howson going missing

Complete rubbish, tries very hard and always asking for the ball.

Just not playing well, but nither is clayton

Don't know why

Agree LIW, think they both need to be in 4-5-1 with someone sat in front of the back four allowing them to play there natural game which is to get forward, we might see the best of them then.

Howson tries hard, cannot knock him or his work ethic. Also a very likeable lad

But he has huge spells where he isn't involved in the game, which for a central midfielder is a worry.

He cannot really perform in a 4-4-2, I agree he more suits 4-5-1. But he is not doing enough in the middle in the current formation. I would love to see us go for somebody like Jay Spearing.

5/6 leicester

I think the problem is they don't get much good ball

No ball playing centre halfs

Were still crying out for a good version of Kisnorbo to sit alongside the impressive Lees.
