McLeod turns down Leeds loan move

Addicks striker Izale McLeod has turned down a loan move to Leeds. The South London Press reports that the League One high-fliers made the approach last week, but the 23-year-old rejected the switch because he wants to fight for his place at The Valley.

On one level, this is very heart warming. But the loan system provides an opportunity to play more first team football and hence hone one's skills - which, as a raw talent, is something that McLeod needs.

Think he's daft not to take a loan move - he's had chances, but Dickson has already shown more promise in his stints.

He's now fifth choice behind Gray, Varney, Iwelumo and Dickson. Strikers live on confidence, this won't do his any good.
