So Lee Sobot had the talking points from the weekend that was Leeds United football.

The point he brings up about Andy Lonergan opening the door back open for Felix Wiedwald isn’t a bad one. After all, while Wiedwald had been poor, Lonergan wasn’t supposed to be brought in to be a starting goalkeeper, something that was made painfully obvious on Saturday.

So could the German return between the pipes after the international break?

At this point, I wouldn’t blame TC either way. I’d see if Wiedwald can manage to get his groove back, otherwise I’d start dialing some numbers for a deal in January.

On to the links.
