Advantages: yound team

Disadvantages: need more experience

GOALKEEPERS

Nigel Martyn
A quality keeper who deserves the England number one shirt. He has brilliant reflexes and excellent handling. Leeds number one Martyn also is a great shot stopper.

Paul Robinson
Only seen a glimpse of this Goalkeeper but what I have seen of him I have liked. He replaced Martyn when he was injured for some of last season and has done superbly well for a youngster. Good back up keeper to have.

DEFENDERS

Dominic Matteo
A decent defender who has good tackling and his work rate is very good. A solid defender who rarely does wrong. Has not really had a good run out of late but with time should get in the first team.

Jonathan Woodgate
A good defender with still a lot to learn from the game. He has good tackling and marking qualities. His height is also an advantage. He has got a few England caps and I am sure he will get plenty more.

Gary Kelly
A good little right back who is very consistent at what he does on the pitch. He tackles well and is quite strong. He is also quite fast which helps for a full back.

Danny Mills
A good strong, powerful right back at Leeds who is good at tackling. Not many midfielders get past him. Only disadvantage is his aggression at times.

Ian Harte
A quality left back who has a lot of talent. He is strong, fast and very good at set pieces. Overall a brilliant player to have.

Michael Dubbery
A strong defender who is good in the air. He hasn’t really been in the Leeds first team this season, but if he trains to his full potential he should get in the first team.

Rio Ferdinand
Another young England defender at Leeds. He is proving he is worth the money they paid for him. Brilliant defender with many qualities including his tackling and marking. He is probably the most relaxed defender with the ball coming out of defence in the country. He also has a few England caps and will go on to get fif
ty or maybe a hundred caps for his country.

Lucas Radebe
Been at Leeds for quite a long time now and has played well over the years. Shows good strength and determination. Hasn’t been in the Leeds first team much since the arrival of Rio Ferdinand. I think he still has a few years left at Elland Road.

MIDFIELDERS

David Batty
A solid player who doesn’t lose many tackles. He has brilliant determination and his fitness level is good. He can have a high level of aggression but I feel he keeps it controlled.

Olivier Dacourt
Came to Leeds a couple of years ago and has done excellent for the club. He has everything in midfield pace, good tackling, good passing, strong and good marking. He also has good work rate. A good all round player.

Lee Bowyer
This player is awesome and has a lot of influence on the team. His work rate is excellent and rarely puts a foot wrong when playing. He is a good crosser of the ball and scores the odd goal.

Eirik Bakke
A tall strong midfielder. Hasn’t really been in the Leeds first team of late but does have the qualities to get into the first team. He is a good attacking midfielder with many good qualities including scoring goals.

Jason Wilcox
A good back-up player for Harry Kewell who hasn’t had a real chance at Leeds. For him to play to his full potential I feel he needs to move to a different club. He can cross the ball well and has good control.

Harry Kewell
A truly superb player who has bags of talent. He has excellent control and his flair is wicked. He can pass the ball well and scores a lot of goals for a midfielder. I feel he has been Leeds best player in the last five years.

STRIKERS

Robbie Keane
They loaned him for Inter Milan last season and than brought him for just over £10 million pounds. He is a good striker with great finishing. He shows good pace and his team play is excellent.

Michael Bridges
Hasn’t been in the first team much because of the other talented strikers playing well. He has good pace and if you give him the chance he scores the odd goal.

Alan Smith
An aggressive little player who has very good shooting and his strength is good for a little player. He puts himself about a bit and shows a lot of aggression. Some say his aggression is his weakness but I feel without it he wouldn’t be that good.

Mark Viduka
A good strong powerful striker who is excellent in the air and has brilliant shooting. Shows good balance for a big man and his link up play with other players is superb.
