Sam Allardyce has named his first Leeds United starting XI as the Whites prepare to take on Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium. The head coach has made four changes to the side Leeds fielded at Bournemouth last weekend with the headline being a change between the sticks.
Illan Meslier has struggled for confidence and form over the last few games and Allardyce has chosen to take him out of the firing line. Joel Robles is the man to come into the side and it is hoped his experience can provide a steady presence at the back.
Robin Koch drops out of the side, too, with the Germany international moving to the bench. That means Max Wober comes into the line-up and with Liam Cooper being out injured, it seems he’ll partner Luke Ayling in the heart of the defence.
