Leeds United have plenty to be optimistic about after a superb start to the season, with the most recent round of fixtures seeing the Peacocks open up a five-point lead over third-place Sheffield United.
Marcelo Bielsa’s guidance this season has led to a significant improvement from the Yorkshire giants, who have established themselves amongst the leading contenders to earn promotion to the Premier League.
However, there is still room for improvement and fans on social media have made it clear on a number of occasions that they are unhappy with the recent performances from Ezgjan Alioski – and they now feel they have identified the ideal replacement.
Teenage starlet Jack Clarke caught the eye again for the U23 side after starring in a 6-3 victory over Burnley this week, finding the back of the net and also contributing two assists for his teammates.
Fans now believe that he deserves to start this weekend away to Bolton and we have gathered some of their comments below.
Clarke has to start over Alioski 🤔

1 goal and 2 assists in 45 mins🤔It's getting beyond embarrassing that Alioski is still being picked in front of him.

Hopefully he’ll start v Bolton saturday. He has to over Alioski. Gives so much going forward where as Alioski gets brain dead, stops, trips over himself & gets himself into an offside position whilst crashing to the floor
