We asked for your Leeds United questions and our Whites writer Beren Cross answered. Read the full transcript of Beren Cross' Q&A below...
Question: There is a lot of debate about a new striker, and it seems to be a challenge which type of profile to approach. Given that we have Bamford (senior striker but with high risk of injury) and Gelhardt (ton of potential but lacking experience), how do you anticipate the rest of the window unfolding? It seems counter intuitive to stifle Joffy's progress by adding a young striker, but that's who we are mostly linked with. Personally I think a loan deal for a proven goal scorer would be the best balance, but any links seem to be shot down quickly. Not long left to go! Thoughts please.
BerenCross: Afternoon. Thanks for the question and balanced argument behind it. Based on the noises we are hearing behind the scenes and in Marsch's press conferences, my gut instinct is they won't add anyone else now unless they suffer a serious injury to a senior player. As you point out yourself, one of their key arguments is avoiding a block in the path of Gelhardt's development. Rodrigo's goals have also pushed him into the debate at the right time for the club to believe he's another reason they don't need another striker.
