Clinton Morrison has criticised Leeds United winger Luis Sinisterra on BBC Radio 5 Live for his performance against Steven Cooper’s Nottingham Forest away from home at the City Ground in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.

The former Crystal Palace forward has said that Sinisterra missed two very good chances in the first half for Leeds against Forest.

The BBC Sport pundit believes that the 23-year-old Colombia international winger was poor against Forest and was not good enough.

Leeds suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Forest at the City Ground this afternoon.

Jesse Marsch’s side remain in real danger of getting relegated to the Championship at the end of the season.

Morrison said about Sinisterra on the half-hour mark: “Sinisterra has to score. He has had two golden opportunities and it’s not good enough. When you are in the position that Leeds are in, you have to take those chances. It should be 1-1, it’s poor from Sinisterra.”

Disappointing

In our view, Luis Sinisterra did not have the best of matches for Leeds United and should have done better with the chances that he got against Nottingham Forest.

The winger was taken off in the 57th minute.

And we were not surprised.

During his time on the pitch, the £21 million (The Daily Mail) winger took three shots and two were on target, had a pass accuracy of 82.4%, won one header, took 35 touches, attempted two dribbles, and made two tackles.
