Overhaul in Leeds United selection played a role in snapping the team out of the last time they struggled for one win in five matches. Five changes were made by Daniel Farke on New Year’s Day when Birmingham City visited and it triggered the 15-match unbeaten run that has them now contesting the title.
Joel Piroe was taken out of the team in one of Farke’s more decisive switches to the line-up. It allowed Patrick Bamford to lead the attack and finally had Georginio Rutter playing behind in a more creative role. The Bulgarian was not considered sharp enough by Farke to play two matches in quick succession, but he would be restored in the Peterborough United clash and never looked back. The changes made by Farke were not entirely tactical or form-related, but it was a refresh of the XI nonetheless.
Who else can do what Georginior Rutter does? Summerville might work through a central berth, but does Farke have the nerve to bench a match-winner like the Frenchman?
