Don Goodman expects “outstanding” Connor Roberts to replace Archie Gray as right-back for Leeds United after signing from Burnley. Roberts, a Wales international, joined at Elland Road on deadline day last week on loan until the end of the season. The 28-year-old is set to make his debut against Rotherham United on Saturday (10 February), after been ineligible for the previous two games. If that happens, Gray, a central midfielder by trade, will most likely be forced to leave the squad. Goodman told MOT Leeds News that Leeds United made a wise decision in making the transfer. Young Archie Gray…

Dean Jones feels Wilfried Gnonto will eventually establish himself as a regular starter for Leeds United in the Championship. The Italy international has started three consecutive matches for the Whites in all competitions, with two of them coming in the FA Cup. Daniel Farke had favoured Daniel James on the right and Crysencio Summerville on the left, but the former is injured. Even when those two are healthy and available, Sports Lens writer Jones believes Gnonto is too good not to use more frequently. “Gnonto will become a regular starter again,” he told Give Me Sport on February 9. “He…
Daniel Farke has released a fresh team news update on his Leeds United side ahead of tomorrow’s match against Rotherham. The Whites were without five players for Tuesday’s FA Cup triumph against Plymouth Argyle, but Connor Roberts and Jamie Shackleton could return. Leeds’ only other absentees in midweek were Pascal Struijk, Dan James, and Karl Darlow, although none of them figure to be back in contention for the Yorkshire derby at Elland Road. Darlow has become somewhat of a forgotten character at Leeds, having been sidelined since the last game of 2023 after dislocating his thumb in the warm-up before…

Jones feels that once Gnonto returns to form, he will become a regular starter for Leeds and might play a key role in the club’s promotion from the Championship. Leeds United have “something special up their sleeve”…
Daniel Farke has a number of decisions to make for his team on Saturday when Leeds United host Rotherham United at Elland Road, one of which is whether Connor Roberts will make his debut. However, if Roberts is to start and make his Leeds debut on Saturday, a decision must be taken regarding Archie Gray. The England U20 wonderkid has been first-choice on the right side of the defense four. Roberts will be eager to play in the first game for which he is eligible, having missed registration for the game against Bristol City and being ineligible for the trip…

The Millers are bottom of the Championship table, 12 points from safety, while Leeds are in contention for automatic promotion after going unbeaten at the start of the year.

The Burnley full-back was not registered in time to represent Leeds…
