Also likes his yellow cards !
We are likely to score nil and concede a few.
Would hate it if they had Kaba

Although it looks like WBA will nick him.

Strong squad, it will be tough for our fullbacks potentially up against Dramah and Dan James!
Slowest week of my life.
Bulut just said in his press conference that Allsopp is out of the Leeds game. Hopeful that the others with knocks will be fit.
Sounds like all but Sawyers & Allsop will be available
Predictions?
Lose 2 nil but hard to predict.
2-0 Leeds.
Full on meltdown about how we can't score to save our lives.
Then we beat QPR 4-0.
'Leeds United boss Daniel Farke has admitted that strikers Patrick Bamford, Georginio Rutter and Mateo Joseph will all miss this weekend’s clash with Cardiff City.'

Tyler Adams, Jack Harrison, Stuart Dallas and Sam Greenwood also all out injured - and a couple of others (including Drameh) picked up knocks in their last friendly.
Half a dozen (so far) have left after relegation - most of their contracts seem to have relegation clauses, although some of their better players have said they want to stay. Others want out and the transfer speculation is growing. They have only brought in Ampadu and Darlow so far - but likely to make a lot more signings over the next few weeks. Sam Byram is on trial - but unlikely to be signed in time for Sunday.
Farke said today they only had 16 players in their last training session.
