Liam Cooper has been Elland Road’s captain for numerous years, but his on-field engagement has waned, requiring others to step up.

In Struijk’s absence, Ethan Ampadu has been tasked with captaining Leeds, despite signing in the summer and being only 23 years old. However,…

Football can be an emotionally charged game at times. Indeed, while it may appear that players do not care as much as fans do, make no mistake: that enthusiasm for the game is felt at all levels.

In recent years, we’ve seen colleagues fight on the pitch and in training, and Patrick Bamford, speaking on the My Mate’s a Footballer Podcast, recounted a minor altercation at Leeds United.
