Dirty dressing room laundry has been aired within those four walls among Leeds United’s squad as they got stuck into what’s going wrong this season. Captain Liam Cooper, who is slowly but surely working his way back to action, has addressed the elephant in the room in today’s Norwich City programme.
While the Scotland international has not been in the matchday squad for more than three months, he remains an important voice in the dressing room. Cooper admits it has been a tough few days since Thursday’s nadir against Aston Villa, but home truths have been exchanged by a group which has worked too hard to reach the promised land.
“We know the performance against Aston Villa on Thursday wasn’t good enough,” he said. “As I’ve said previously, over the past few years we’ve set ourselves some very high standards and we didn’t get anywhere near those levels.
