Raphinha - Out with illness Raphinha is not in Leeds' match day squad for Sunday's clash against Tottenham.
Jamie Shackleton - Out against Spurs Shackleton (undisclosed) is not in Leeds' match day squad for Sunday's clash against Tottenham.
Impact Shackleton missed the draw against Leicester City before the international break with an undisclosed injury, and he will not be involved on Sunday either. Adam Forshaw lines up in midfield in his absence.

Jewish or Leeds? The religions coexist, side by side This is the largely untold tale of a community who became fanatical about their local team and still turn out en masse today

Adam Forshaw - Gets first start in more than a year Forshaw started and went 89 minutes in the 1-1 draw against Leicester, producing one chance created and two clearances.
Impact Forshaw came into the XI and played as a defensive midfielder alongside Kalvin Phillips, which was his first start since the 2019/20 season because of injury. Forshaw is a nice boost to the squad, but once everyone else is healthy, it's unclear what role he'll play.

Joe Gelhardt - Playing for U23s Gelhardt (muscular) was on the bench for Friday's match with the Leeds U23s.
Impact Gelhardt remains a bench option for the senior team and is likely getting minutes Friday to build up his fitness. He's appeared in two matches this season and could get a couple more appearances with Patrick Bamford still out.

Jamie Shackleton - Could be option after break Shackleton (undisclosed) is toward the end of recovery and could be an option Sunday against Tottenham, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.
Impact Shackleton recovered from whatever his issue was over the break and he could again be an option to start Sunday. Prior to the issue, he had started five-straight matches in a couple different roles, so it'll be interesting to see how Leeds line up against Spurs.
NOVEMBER 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Robin Koch - Still weeks away Koch (pubis) is further away from a return than some of his teammates, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.
Impact Koch was originally given a timeline of "at least one month" and now it's clear that it could be closer to two months. At one point, he was out of the country getting surgery and now he probably has a few more weeks until he's back in training.
NOVEMBER 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Luke Ayling - Out at least one more match Ayling (knee) will miss Sunday's trip to Tottenham, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.
Impact The hope was for Ayling to recover over the break and be an option again Sunday, but that's not the case. He still doesn't have a timeline to return and until he's ready, Leeds will continue to have an issue replacing him on their back line.
NOVEMBER 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Patrick Bamford - Still out against Tottenham Bamford (ankle) will remain out for Sunday's match against Tottenham, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.
Impact This isn't too surprising, as there have been no updates on a possible return to training for Bamford. It wouldn't be surprising if he missed a couple more matches with this injury, something Leeds fans don't want to hear after a nervy month.
NOVEMBER 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Junior Firpo - Should return against Spurs Firpo (strain) is "healthy" and "needs" minutes ahead of Sunday's trip to Tottenham, according to manager Marcelo Bielsa.
Impact At this point, there's a chance Firpo starts and goes a full 90 or completely misses the squad. Bielsa has been extremely cryptic with his updates, as Firpo has been given this label the last couple matches. However, this time he had the international break to recover, so he may be more likely to make the squad Sunday.

Rodrigo Moreno - Takes five shots against Leicester Rodrigo took five shots (two on target), created one chance, sent in three inaccurate crosses, made one interception and one clearance in Sunday's 1-1 draw to Leicester.
Impact Rodrigo took the second-most shots for his side, but it wasn't enough to help them earn three points at home. The forward has two goals in the season, both in his previous two games, and will now look to get on the scoresheet at Tottenham on Sunday.
NOVEMBER 9, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Daniel James - Takes six shots in draw James took six off-target shots, sent in four inaccurate crosses, made one tackle (won) and one clearance in Sunday's 1-1 draw to Leicester.
Impact James led his side in shots, but failed to hit the target and they ended up with one point at home. The forward has yet to scored in the season, and he will now look to find the back of the net at Tottenham on Sunday.
NOVEMBER 9, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Jack Harrison - Sends in seven crosses in draw Harrison took two shots (one on target), created one chance, sent in seven inaccurate crosses and made two tackles (both won) in Sunday's 1-1 draw to Leicester.
Impact Harrison had a productive outing, making the second-most crosses for his side, but it wasn't enough to help them earn the home win. The midfielder has yet to score or assist in the season, something he will look to achieve when they visit Tottenham on Sunday.

Impact Raphinha scored the opener in the 26th minute, but they conceded the equalizer two minutes later and settled for the home draw. The forward now has five goals in the season, while also receiving his third yellow card. They will visit Tottenham on Sunday.

Illan Meslier - Makes two saves in draw Meslier made two saves and three clearances in Sunday's 1-1 draw to Leicester.
Impact Meslier wasn't really tested, but conceded in first half as they ended up with the home draw. The goalkeeper has just one clean sheet over 11 starts in the season, and will look for his second at Tottenham on Sunday.
NOVEMBER 9, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Joe Gelhardt - Misses Leicester draw Gelhardt picked up some muscle discomfort for the U23s last week and wasn't in the squad for Sunday's draw against Leicester City.
Impact Gelhardt was getting time off the bench with Patrick Bamford injured, but he missed Sunday's contest. That being the case, once Bamford is ready to return, there probably won't be a role on the bench for Gelhardt, similar to early in the season.
