Left-back has long been a problem position at Leeds United. For years, even before the current administration, highly-anticipated solutions have fallen flat. There is just something about that corner of the field in Leeds white.
Makeshift options like Stuart Dallas and Ezgjan Alioski have had the most success there in recent seasons. More natural choices like Junior Firpo and Barry Douglas have not found the form or fitness to really hold down that shirt.
Max Wober now arrives with plenty of versatility to offer. Dispatches from Austria, Netherlands and Spain would suggest he is a natural centre-back with the ability to move left or forward into midfield.
