Image for Leeds United: Fans left furious at picture posted by Ben White

Leeds United fans have been reacting to an image that has emerged on social media from one of their former players, Ben White.

Leeds United’s recent worries continued as Marcelo Bielsa’s men, who were decimated by injuries were defeated 4-1 at home by Arsenal to stretch their run to 4 games without a win in the Premier League and still only one victory since the start of November.

Can you remember where Leeds finished in these league seasons? First up: 2018/19

What Leeds United fans don’t need in the aftermath is to have the defeat rubbed in their face by one of their former players, but posting on his Instagram story after the game (via @leeds_utd_news), that’s exactly what White did as he posted a black and white photo on himself squaring up to Leeds United’s Raphinha during the game.

This left a lot of Leeds fans rather angry when the image was relayed to them on social media, as they tore into the England defender for his post:

“London has def got to @ben6white head”

“Poor behaviour”
“The club made him and he’s acting like he’s bigger than them now. Remember a few months ago when arsenal fans didn’t want him cos he was too expensive? Pathetic behaviour”
“Lost respect for him and clearly he’s lost it for Leeds, we put him on the map”
“L’Oréal, because you’re worth it”
“Ralph > faded White”

Do you think Ben White will ever play for Leeds again?

Yes

Yes

No

No

With Leeds United having played a big part in his development with his year on loan there in 2019/20 where he won the club’s Young Player of the Year award, they obviously hoped he’d be a little more polite to his former side, but looks like that wasn’t the case.
