You need a little a luck and Lambert isn't getting any on the injury front.

Who would have thought we would have a midfield injury crisis at the start of the season?

Currently injured or on loan

Surman
Hughes
Gill
K Smith
OTJ
Tom Adeyemi

Not forgetting losing 2 left backs and losing two central defenders.
Plus we have some players on the verge of getting suspended.

I think the fans have to take this into consideration if things dont go so well against Leeds.

You need luck with injuries to do well in the champs if you dont have massive resources.
Worthy was incredibly lucky our promotion season where we didnt have hardly any injuries at all with almost no major ones.

I still think we have a good first 11 vs Leeds, the problem is if we need to bring anyone from the bench who isnt a striker.

I know Surman played a practice game this week.
Are we desperate enough to rush him back early for at least a place on the bench?
From the Lambert interview, it looks like he is thinking about it.
