The #LUFC Breakfast Debate (Friday 18th October) Fulham come to Aaronson's rescue

Good Morning. It's Friday 18th October, and here are the latest headlines from Elland Road...


Fulham come to Aaronson's rescue

Brenden Arronson's chances of participating in tonight's Yorkshire Derby have been greatly increased, thanks to Fulham Football Club. The 23 year old was part of Mauricio Pochettino's new look USA side that lost 2-0 to Mexico in the early hours of Wednesday morning. The game took place in Guadalajara, some 9000 kilometres away from Blighty.

The game only finished at 5.30am (UK time) meaning but the time they showered, changed, arrived and boarded a flight another four hours would have passed, and that's before taking into account the sixteen hour flight. Fortunately for Aaronson, and the rest of the players (from both sides) who apply their trade in the Football League, they were allowed to board a private charter laid on for Raul Jimenez by Fulham, cutting the travelling time by half. The extra rest time ahead of tonight's Yorkshire derby could be pivotal.





Will a point do?

High flying Sheffield Utd are the visitors to Elland Road this evening as Leeds look to get back to winning ways after back to back draws. Chris Wilder's men are the divisions in-form team at the moment with five wins and a draw from their last six games, without even conceding! They've only surrendered three league goals all season; only Liverpool who have played two games less can boast a better record.

Lady luck rarely shines on West Yorkshire's finest. Injuries to key personnel have meant Daniel Farke is 'down to his bare bones' as far as midfield selections are concerned, and that's before taking into account the late arrivals, coming back from International duty. Bearing this in mind, would you settle for a point tonight?
