da esport bet: Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa confirmed in his Bristol City pre-match press conference that Bailey Peacock-Farrell is set to miss Saturday’s Championship clash having picked up a knee injury in training, and it could have big ramifications for the Argentine’s chosen starting XI against the Robins.
With Chelsea loanee Jamal Blackman suffering a broken leg while playing for the U23s last week that has seen him return to his parent club for treatment, one of either Will Huffer or Kamil Miazek is set to fill in despite neither having played a competitive game for the first team.
Whoever gets the nod, Bielsa will have some big selection decisions to make with influential defensive trio Luke Ayling, Gaetano Berardi and Pontus Jansson all also set to miss out through injury.
Chance for Shaughnessy
Had Jansson missed out and Peacock-Farrell been bit then Bielsa may well have opted to experiment by pushing Kalvin Phillips back into the heart of the defence – not for the first time this season.
The Argentine manager seemingly doesn’t fancy Conor Shaughnessy after 18-year-old Leif Davis was named on the substitutes’ bench ahead of him for the 4-1 defeat to West Bromwich Albion before the international break, but he should change that viewpoint now.
The 63-year-old needs players in their specialist positions and as much as experience in possible in front of either Huffer or Miazek, and Shaughnessy would be the best option alongside Liam Cooper given he has at least played 15 first-team matches for the Yorkshire outfit.
The Playmaker FC squad decided to wind-up some unsuspecting Brazil fans at the Emirates on Saturday night. Watch the hilarious results in the video below…
Dallas keeps his place
The 27-year-old didn’t enjoy his finest afternoon and came under criticism from his own fans on Twitter as he once again filled in for Ayling and Berardi at right-back at the Hawthorns, and while Bielsa could have considered dropping him in favour of trying out another player in that role against the Robins, he certainly shouldn’t do that now.
Leeds need as many experienced heads as they can get in their backline considering their injury troubles, and while Dallas may not be particularly popular with the Elland Road faithful when he covers at full-back, it is a necessity again in the circumstances.
