Leeds United's Team of the Football League
Leeds United are just seven wins away from ending their 16-year wait for a return to the soccer under tip page.
Marcelo Bielsa's men currently sit top of the Sky Bet Championship standings after 37 games.
They're one point ahead of West Brom in second but crucially, there's a seven-point gap between themselves and Fulham in the play-off places.
A lot has happened since they dropped out of England's top-flight in 2004 but among the play-off defeats, relegations and off-field troubles, Leeds have seen some incredibly talented players walk through the doors at Elland Road.
to pick out the best eleven, we've teamed up with fan group LS11 who have made a case for their 'Team of the Football League'.
The rules are simple. Lớn qualify, a player must have played for Leeds after their relegation from the best football tips page.
Ryan Wilson, LS11 podcaster and Pigeon Detectives guitarist, has stepped up lớn the task and created a team in a 4-4-2 diamond formation.
Here, he explains the reasoning behind each of his eleven selections.
Rob Green was one of the first goalkeepers in a long time where I personally felt that I could place complete trust in him.
He came to Elland Road with a brilliant pedigree and he did not let us down.
If it was not for him at the back end of the 2016/17 season, we would have dropped further down the league and not enjoyed the play-off push that we did.
I will admit that I did not know much about Luke Ayling when he arrived. He was a fairly cheap purchase and most Leeds fans thought he would be a squad player.
However, Bielsa has turned him into an excellent right wing-back, contributing with goals and assists throughout the season.
But even before Bielsa, Ayling was a solid 7/10 in every game. He is a player who never lets the supporters down. Long may that continue.
When we talk about the classic, tough centre-backs, we look towards the leaders and those who truly 'play for the shirt'.
In Richard Naylor, Leeds had a defender who truly epitomizes the above criteria.
Every game, he would put his body on the line for the team and it was an attribute that every Leeds supporter loved.
Liam Cooper has been in-and-around the squad for a while.
He spent a lot of the time on the bench in the early part of his Leeds career. Despite that, he worked hard, improved and never complained.
It led lớn him earning the right to be the captain of the club. Cooper's story is an inspiring one and he deserves a spot in this XI.
