Some context on these guys. Kane and Wilks both started this season as teenagers. Kane had never played a single first team game ever and Wilks had started a grand total of 7 first team games, all in League Two. For us this season Wilks has started 41 games and Kane 36 games in League One. These lads have had a very steep learning curves and done a cracking job. Very bright futures in the game...probably not with us though!

It amazes me sometimes - Wilks has had unwarranted abuse on here despite the fact he is still learning his trade. I rate him very highly, however I’m not sure he has a future at Leeds if you look at the players in front of him (I’m convinced that they will dip into the market rather than blood a young player). Hopefully that leaves the door open for a transfer. Kane I fear may end up at Rangers
