Grayson backs 'strong' Leeds squad

Leeds manager Simon Grayson believes the strength of his squad will be vital in the race for promotion to the Premier League. The Whites hammered fellow promotion hopefuls Nottingham Forest 4-1 on Saturday to move six points behind second-placed Norwich and Grayson insists every player can play their part in the final seven games of the season. "We have a very strong squad at the moment," he told the Telegraph & Argus. "Competition for places will drive us on and hopefully get us success between now and the end of the season. "On Saturday, we had a very strong bench and for various reasons. Alex Bruce, Billy Paynter and Paul Connolly were not even in the 18."
