Leeds United have another injury concern to deal with in the game against Crystal Palace, with Adam Forshaw coming off after half an hour.

Leeds have already seen Junior Firpo ruled out for eight weeks after a knock in a pre-season game earlier in July, while the game against Crystal Palace has brought more headaches.

After 11 minutes, Luis Sinisterra pulled up with what looked like a hamstring injury as he went straight down the tunnel.

Now, just after the half-hour mark, Adam Forshaw has been pulled from the game in what looks like a precautionary decision from Jesse Marsch and his staff:

Great news…

Just after seeing Sinisterra hobble off, the last thing we needed was Forshaw coming off too.

It’s been a very feisty game with both sides throwing strong challenges in, so there’s no surprise that a knock has emerged, and it’s good to see the club not taking any risks.

Hopefully, this is the last of those setbacks, and that they are nothing to worry about, but the signs aren’t good.
