Jesse Marsch has been sacked and Leeds United have a trio of fresh faces in the dugout. Michael Skubala, Paco Gallardo and Chris Armas will take charge as the Whites make the daunting trip to Old Trafford.
Back-to-back clashes against Manchester United, one of the Premier League’s most in-form sides, is hardly ideal for a rookie coaching setup aiming to drag Leeds away from the relegation zone.
But what would you do if given the temporary gig?

Just two wins in six months points towards a side that requires a radical shake-up. Jack Harrison has polarised supporters with his inconsistent displays this season and, with Crysencio Summerville returning from injury at Nottingham Forest, he could provide an alternative.
Marsch preferred a 4-2-3-1 formation for most of his time at Elland Road. However, individual error and defensive frailties carry more of the burden for Leeds’ struggles than the system itself… or would you rip the tactics board up altogether?
Weston McKennie made his United debut from the bench on Sunday, a rare positive for Leeds fans. Forging a partnership with Tyler Adams could prove essential to keeping the Whites in the Premier League.
In attack, the Patrick Bamford issue remains a dilemma nobody can appear to answer. Just one Premier League goal in 14 months is ominous, albeit while suffering from injuries, while Georginio Rutter waits patiently for his chance.
Brenden Aaronson and Mateo Joseph were also on the bench at the City Ground and could freshen up the frontline if called upon. Rodrigo (ankle), Adam Forshaw (groin), Sonny Perkins (ankle), Stuart Dallas (thigh) and Robin Koch (suspended) are all out.
