It was a disappointing afternoon for Leeds United on Saturday, with Marcelo Bielsa’s side suffering just their second defeat of the season at the hands of Blackburn Rovers.

Leeds trailed early when Danny Graham found himself unmarked from a corner, with the Blackburn forward powering a header beyond Bailey Peacock-Farrell.

Bielsa’s side found themselves back in the game on the stroke of half time, though, with Mateusz Klich finishing off a sweeping move with a close range finish.

However, despite seeing a lot of the second half, Leeds conceded again from a corner when Darragh Lenihan found himself unmarked.

Klich again went close, but Leeds failed to find another equaliser and Bielsa’s side suffered their second defeat in the opening 13 fixtures of the season.

Leeds find themselves on a tough run, but they have the chance to bounce back to winning ways this week, welcoming Ipswich Town to Elland Road on Wednesday evening.

Here at FLW, we take a look at TWO players who Bielsa should axe for that clash…

In Dallas’ defence, he isn’t a full-back and is simply doing a job for the team, but his performance at Ewood Park wasn’t good.

Bielsa needs to turn to a natural option at full-back against Ipswich, with Luke Ayling’s return coming at a good time.

Dallas at full-back is an experiment that needs to stop.

Roberts warranted a start against Blackburn given his form in Kemar Roofe’s absence, but he shouldn’t have been the man to lead the line, that responsibility should’ve fallen to Roofe.

Pablo Hernandez has to come back into Leeds’ starting XI against Ipswich and it should be at the expense of Roberts as Roofe is so important.

Bielsa needs to get back to what was working in August.
