RWB – Luke Ayling – A slightly different role for Luke but one I’m sure he can handle, he’s been one of our best players ever since he signed.
LWB – Ezgjan Alioski – Alioski plays wing-back for his country and if we’re going with this formation, we may as well put round pegs in round holes. He’ll have to be on the defensive side of things, if not, Dallas can take his place.
CM – Eunan O’Kane – I’ve no doubt O’Kane will return to the team, he yet again was top quality against Bristol City and is key to the way we play.
CM – Ronaldo Vieira – Despite playing through a knee injury, if he’s good to go then he should start. He showed us everything we’ve been missing last weekend and I look forward to seeing him at Elland Road.

CM – Kalvin Phillips – I’m still not sure if KP will play given he started against Leicester, but Christiansen seemed relieved that he got through without being suspended. Add that to the fact he was quality further up the pitch against Bristol City, it’s trending in the right direction for him to play.
Into the attack…
Sounds exciting!

What else can I say. I’d go with this attacking formation, but, probably use Dallas instead of Alioski. Other than that, a good hypothesis. Kudos!
