Leeds United’s squad is currently down to the barebones and so the international break may be set to arrive at the best possible time.
Daniel Farke was already without Ethan Ampadu, Dan James, Manor Solomon, Max Wober and Isaac Schmidt for Tuesday night’s draw at Norwich City, but went onto lose Ilia Gruev after just 20 minutes.
Farke did attempt to utilise his bench with Friday’s trip to Sunderland in mind, but it was clear just how much weaker Leeds were after his changes.
Leeds supporters were very critical of Farke’s substitutions after the match as it had felt the Whites were the most likely to win the match after Largie Ramazani’s equaliser.
However, once some of Leeds’ injured bodies do return to action, they will not be weakened in the same way as at Carrow Road when Farke uses his bench.
