    Leeds Utd v Middlesbrough
    Saturday 30th November 2019 15.00 | Elland Road

    Relegation threatened Middlesbrough are the visitors to Elland Road on Saturday as Leeds aim to finish November with a maximum haul of 15 points.

    With Boro currently in the relegation zone, Smoggo's Manager Jonathan Woodgate has not felt this much pressure since he thought it was a good idea to attend the Majestic Nightclub with some club mates.

    They currently sit in 22nd place on 14 points having not won a game since mid September.

    Leeds await news on the fitness of Tyler Roberts. The Welsh International picked up a knock at the Madjeski Stadium midweek and was substituted in favour of Helder Costa.

    The On loan Wolves winger immediately made an impact adding some natural width to the side, and along with fellow substitute Alioski helped set up the winner.

    Will the duo be recalled to the starting XI?

    What about Shackleton? He played 45 minutes for the U23's on Monday, and came on in injury time against the Royals!

    Will he get any game time against Boro?

    Wednesday was the cut off date for Kiko Casilla's appeal against his racism charge. We await to see whether he faces suspension or not! French U20 International Illan Meslier stands by.

    Fingers crossed for Kiko. Don’t need anything derailing this season

    That will be three wingers starting including Harrison & Pablo, might be a bit disjointed over a whole game. Fair to say that Tyler Roberts is made of straw.

    I’d like to see Costa at 10 but I’m assuming Pablo will start there, guess it could be a start for Shackleton and keep Costa on the bench?

    Pablo just hasn’t fired on all cylinders yet this season, I guess you just play him waiting for that one moment of magic

    Costa will go right wing and Pablo will play 10.

    Klich has great stats but we dont see much end product this season. Killer ball converted or indeed great goals smashed in. Yes he has great stats and so did Ray Wilkins who was also known as the crab? But if hes playing how Bielsa wants him to play.......

    I blame The Tranny Three ...... <yikes>

    (That sounds like an 80s synth band, doesn't it?).

    EDIT: Reminds me of the old Xmas joke .... Did you hear about the fat, alcoholic tranny - all he wanted to do was eat, drink and be Mary
