Leeds youngster makes squad for Derby game after Dallas injury – Starting XI unchanged

The Leeds United team to face Derby has been announced and youngster Jamie Shackleton has been called up to the side. He was the player who I expected to make the squad as he can play in various roles, he may be called upon if we have issues at full-back or need legs in the centre of the park.

The rest of the team is unchanged from the win over Stoke City and that means only a place on the bench for both Pontus Jansson and Patrick Bamford. It’s a strong looking team again and will be the same fluid 4-1-4-1 formation that worked so well last week. If Leeds can get on top of Derby early on they can get hold of a side who will want to give Frank Lampard a winning start at home.
