Leeds United fans have given a mixed verdict on the news Adam Forshaw has been ruled out of the weekend’s game with Derby County.
The Yorkshire Evening Post report Forshaw is still sidelined with the injury which kept him out of last weekend’s game with Barnsley.
Leeds won that game 2-0 with two late goals, with youngster Jamie Shackleton stepping in.
Shackleton did well against Barnsley, but Forshaw is more of an defensive minded player.
Some supporters are concerned whether Forshaw’s absence will be felt more so against the Rams.
Forshaw missed most of the play-offs for Leeds last season through injury, going off in the 24th minute of the first leg.
Shackleton stepped in well for him then, although Leeds lost the crucial second leg.
Derby have home advantage for Saturday’s fixture, but this should not daunt Leeds, as they won away twice against the Rams last season.
Here is a look at how Leeds fans reacted to the Forshaw update…
