da bet7k: Marcelo Bielsa’s Leeds United don’t have the strongest squad in terms of depth, and things may be about to get a whole lot worse for them.
da fezbet: Indeed, Kalvin Phillips went off injured early in their game against Reading, and as you can imagine, United fans were gutted when the midfielder was substituted.
You can understand their frustrations as well, the 24-year-old is undoubtedly one of the Yorkshire club’s most important players, and he’s previously been hailed as the best player in the Championship.

To make matters even worse, Leeds don’t really have a player who can act as a natural replacement for Phillips. Bielsa has previously stated that Adam Forshaw would be a direct replacement for him, but his season is over after undergoing surgery earlier this month.
It’s unknown how long the midfielder will be out for, but fans were devastated to hear that the midfielder has picked up an injury.
Others believe that this will have huge repercussions on their promotion hopes.
One fan stated that the season is over, while another stated that the Whites may have to settle for the playoffs.
It may seem like a bit of an overreaction, but we’ve seen how poor the Yorkshire club are without their star man.
Phillips missed three games due to injury a few weeks ago, and United managed to pick up just three points from a possible nine throughout that period.
