Rodrigo sets out aim of Leeds United winter training camp as Premier League return on horizon

Rodrigo Moreno believes this long period of preparation ahead of the Premier League's return will allow Leeds United to work on some of their weaknesses during the first part of the season. The Whites are currently out in Spain this week as they switch their focus to building up match fitness for their clash with Manchester City on December 28.

Leeds will face an away match at Elche on Thursday before hosting Real Sociedad and AS Monaco later this month. Upon the conclusion of the first 14 matches, Leeds sit 15th in the table just two points clear of the bottom three.

Despite some promising signs, there have been some clear weaknesses to Leeds' game so far, including the loss of several winning positions, the fourth worst defensive record in the division and their struggles to beat teams who sit back. Speaking to leedsunited.com, Rodrigo is confident that Leeds can use this time effectively to rectify some of those deficiencies.
