Sheffield Wednesday were one of the first teams to reveal their retained list ahead of the summer and there were a few big names unveiled as set to be off.
Our Yorkshire rivals have had a similarly tough season to us this year and, like us, are probably due a clear out.
One man caught my eye more than most, too, and that was Ross Wallace.
A player who always looks up for a scrap and will try all he can to get the win, he’s the sort of player you can rely on often.
A few other Leeds fans took note of his impending release, too, and it seems as though many of them would like him to come in:

Ross Wallace has always played well against us, I would take him too

The Verdict
He’s a real tenacious player that’ll hassle and harass the opposition – something we need more of.
I agree, then, with those that are saying he might be worth a look – especially on a free – because we need his kind of desire and industry in our midfield.
