We've had such a high turnover of players and managers since 2005, I struggle to remember who played what years.
Cant think of any others. Should know who was at the back with Bellusci(if he played) kick myself when the answer comes out) There was another Italian, midfielder I think that came at the time, was he one of the sick notes???
Top effort Ges
Dallas was one of the 3 used subs though, not a starter

Same manager with a two changes to the side.
Cook played instead of Dallas I think, Bridcutt played too. Initially I thought Dallas played on the left but I'm unsure whether it was him or Mowatt
With Bamba (of course) & our best left back Charlie Taylor filling the spaces in Gessa's ten man team.
Leeds won 0-2 with Antenucci scoring, unsure of the other scorer
Bamba
Taylor
Cook
Bridcutt
Mowatt
That lanky striker Erwin, must have been Dallas came on, can't recall the other sub
Correct so far
#1 M. Silvestri
#28 G. Berardi
#5 G. Bellusci
#3 S. Bamba
#21 C. Taylor
#26 L. Bridcutt
#8 L. Murphy
#10 A. Mowett
#23 L. Cook
#11 S. Doukara
#7 M. Antenucci
Used Subs (x3)
#15 S. Dallas
#19 L. Erwin
?
Manager - Steve Evans
Just the dodgy sub to get
None of us would swap any of that starting 11 for MB's side would we.........crikey !!! even Bamford would be safe

I didn't think Taylor was a starter around then, thought too that Cook had left. Should have got Bamba, especially since he went to them after.
Forgot all about Bridcutt.
No idea on other sub, probably one of the zillion loanees that didn't work out over the years.

It was that French 'Vieira-esque' star defensive midfielder Toumani Diagouraga !!

The same season Taylor scored a impressive solo goal at MK Dons mate.
I think Evans signed Bridcutt & I beileve he stood in as captain that season even though he was on loan

Stuart Dallas struggled to get into the first team then
Look at him now, one of the first names on team sheet
Mind you, could MB have improved any of those 11 starters to the extent that he managed with the seeming transformation of the team he inherited from when he came ?

Interesting question Cat
Taylor & Cook would certainly have fitted into the Bielsa's system.
Whether the rest could have improved as much as Dallas & Berardi have done is open to conjecture.
