The young Leeds United striker scored again for the Under-23s on Monday.
Some Leeds United fans are urging Marcelo Bielsa to involve Ryan Edmondson in Tuesday's trip to Preston North End.
That is despite Bielsa telling the Yorkshire Evening Post on Monday that Edmondson, the free-scoring Leeds U23s striker, is unlikely to be used due to his inexperience compared to Patrick Bamford, Kemar Roofe and Tyler Roberts.
And after the 17-year-old struck again for Carlos Corberan's development squad later that evening - his 17th goal this season - calls to promote him are not going away.
Some even want Edmondson to start ahead of Bamford, the £7 million summer signing whose form has suffered an alarming dip of late.
This is what they're saying on Twitter...
Edmondson deserves at least a last 10 minutes or so run out for the first team. He's something we lack, a strong physical presence. And he knows where the goal is.

Put him in the squad, let’s have some competition on Bamford’s mind.

Keeper has been keeping the scoreline respectable but even he can’t stop Captain Yorkshire from scoring. You’d hope that Patrick Bamford is watching, he could learn a thing or two from Ryan Edmondson. #lufc

Edmondson, who joined Leeds from York City in 2017, made his debut for the Whites on the final day of last season and has appeared once from the substitutes' bench this campaign.
The burly front man doesn't turn 18 until next month and has two years left on his contract at Elland Road.
Who should start up front for Leeds against Preston?
