Bespoke Django clue about Cantona's focus when missing header for Leeds United (10)
I believe the answer is:
conjugated
'united' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)
'bespoke django clue about cantona's focus when missing header for leeds' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'about' could be 'on' (as in a book 'on' a certain topic) and 'on' is present in the answer.
'when' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is located in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for conjugated that I've seen is " (In grammar) inflected a verb systematically - do get Cajun (anag)".)
