A lot of Leeds United fans have responded to the news that Tyler Roberts has been ruled out of the Whites’ clash with Brentford.
Phil Hay put out a tweet on Monday afternoon that said the 21-year-old had suffered a knock to his calf and would therefore not be in the squad for the trip to Griffin Park.
What should Leeds do with Tyler Roberts?
Get rid
Keep him
This latest piece of injury news has not surprised these Leeds fans.
Back at Thorp Arch for Bielsa's pre-Brentford presser.
Team news – Phillips is back from suspension. Tyler Roberts suffered a knock to his calf at the weekend and won't be in the squad tomorrow. #lufc

What do we think?
The Welsh international, who is valued at £3.6m by Transfermarkt, has failed to make the Leeds squad on 15 occasions in the league this season.
This is a shame because Marcelo Bielsa had earmarked him for a key role in the Whites’ squad this year.
Unfortunately, though, constant injuries have disrupted his campaign, and as a result, the longest run of matches he has had is only five.
Hopefully, this latest injury will only keep Roberts out of the Brentford match, and he can return for Saturday’s clash with Bristol City.
