Leeds Were Lucky With The Side We Had To Throw Together - Boothroyd

Coventry City manager Aidy Boothroyd felt that Leeds United were lucky to have taken on an under-strength Sky Blues side.

City were already without eight players before Marlon King went down with flu and Aidy Boothroyd told Sky Blue Player: "It was an open, end-to-end game and in the end we come away disappointed but I think encouraged by some of the individual performances.

"Individually I was very pleased with our midfield players and I think the front three worked well and gave Leeds a lot of problems but in the end Leeds have been very lucky in the side that we have had to throw together."
