‘For real?’, ‘Back for the play-offs’ – These Leeds fans fume after Phil Hay injury update
Leeds United lost 2-0 to Nottingham Forest on Saturday and might have lost a key player to injury.
Tyler Roberts has hardly played this season because of fitness issues and Phil Hay confirmed that he had left the City Ground on Saturday on crutches after taking a knock.
Roberts came on in the 59th minute for a surprisingly subdued Pablo Hernandez.
Leeds have no rest as they travel to Griffin Park on Tuesday for another massive game against Brentford.
Another defeat there will see Leeds drop back into the play-off spots and Leeds fans can’t believe that Roberts has been injured again.
He’s only started four games this season and has been out for longer than he’s been available for selection.
Roberts missed big chunks of last season through injury, too, and one fan has had enough saying he “needs to go in the summer”.
Roberts did take a clattering challenge late on Saturday and the crutches might be precautionary.
