How a full strength Leeds United starting line-up and bench could look with summer transfer window now closed

The summer transfer window is now firmly shut - so how could Leeds United's starting XI and bench look at full strength over the next four months?

Leeds were one of the Premier League' s main movers on Tuesday's transfer deadline day, signing winger Dan James from Manchester United for a fee of £25m.

James becomes United's second most expensive signing, following the arrival of Spanish international forward Rodrigo last summer from Valencia for £27m.

Leeds also loaned out winger Helder Costa to Valencia on deadline day and here is a suggestion of how everything might fit into place when everybody is fit.

Marcelo Bielsa's Whites will return to Premier League action with a clash against Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool at Elland Road on Sunday, September 12.
