Neil Redfearn admits he has been presented with a defensive selection headache at Leeds United due to the return of Giuseppe Bellusci from suspension.

Leeds claimed a 3-1 win over Blackpool with Liam Cooper filling in for Bellusci, while he also performed well in the club's 2-2 draw with Charlton Athletic.




That leaves Redfearn with a selection issue, with both Cooper and Bellusci keen to start against Blackburn next weekend.

 


However, the Leeds boss believes such fierce competition for places is healthy.

"Yes [I’ve got a dilemma, but] it's healthy, there's competition for places", Redfearn told LUTV.

"I thought we defended well in the game against Blackpool. I thought we used the ball well from the back. We came under a little bit of pressure at the end.

"The competition is there, but it's healthy competition", he added.

Leeds' win over Blackpool ended a run of eight games without a win for the Whites.
