Former Manchester City defender Micah Richards has told Weston McKennie and Tyler Adams they hold the key to Leeds United's success as they battle to avoid relegation. The Whites' performances have been decent enough in recent weeks but they've won just once in the Premier League since November.
That win coincided with Javi Gracia's first game in charge of Leeds against relegation rivals Southampton. The three points lifted the Whites out of the bottom three, but they were unable to build on that in the FA Cup away to Fulham.
When asked about Leeds' midfield this season, Richards told the BBC: "It's energy, it's tenacity and it's understanding. Obviously at the World Cup they had the trio with [Yunus] Musah as well, but since McKennie has come on loan from Juventus, I think he's made a difference.
