'Dear God', 'Says it all' – These Leeds fans fume as player image emerges from Crawley defeat

Dave is a huge Leeds fan and ardent disciple of Bielsa ball. A career in print magazines that included editing PC Zone, launching PokerPlayer and redesigning The Big Issue has finally led Dave to writing about the love of his life, Leeds United. It’s been a tough 2020 but the single scariest moment was the first quarter of the game against Man City. Rodrigo will be the saviour this season.

Leeds United keeper Kiko Casilla has come under severe criticism after his performance in the 3-0 defeat against Crawley on Sunday.

And one photo has been seized on by Leeds fans who claim it sums up the situation with the goalkeeper perfectly.

The photo shows Casilla on the ground shrugging, seemingly after a mistake, while Kalvin Phillips looks on in disgust.

Some Leeds fans think that it shows that Casilla doesn't care about the club or how badly he played, and is just happy to pick up his big weekly wage.

One Leeds fan posted the photo on Twitter and said, "look at that."

Another fan said, "The look KP is giving him is what 95% of the rest of us are thinking."

The big problem is that after Illan Meslier, Leeds don't have another option at the moment.

We've been calling for Leeds to sign an experienced back-up for Meslier but so far Leeds have resisted strengthening that area of the squad.

After Casilla, Leeds would have to rely on the inexperienced Elia Caprile.

Leeds fans aren't impressed at all with their current back-up option and the only consolation is that there are no more cup games for Leeds until next season.

Barring injury or suspension, that will be the last time we see Casilla this campaign.

Here are the best reactions from Leeds fans...

Imagine Bera front in the same pitch as Kiko

His look alone would have said. You and me in the changing room after the whistle

Sometimes a facial expression conveys all you need to know. Casilla’s is “Meh, I’m getting paid anyway.” The look KP is giving him is what 95% of the rest of us are thinking.
