Leeds United take on Blackburn Rovers this weekend in the Sky Bet Championship as they look to get another big three points before the end of this period of games.
The Whites have been very decent so far this season and once again look like one of the sides capable of challenging for promotion back into the Premier League.
It’s been a long time since United were in the top flight but, once again, they have a chance of challenging with the likes of West Brom, Preston and several others all pushing to get into the promised land.
Another three points are needed this weekend, then, but it remains to be seen who plays for the Whites with them having to contend with a few injuries right now.
Eddie Nketiah is one of them, too, and plenty has been said after Adam Pope offered this update:
TEAM NEWS: Leeds United striker Eddie Nketiah (abdomen) is being assessed week to week before returning to training. He, Ezgjan Gianni Alioski (side) & Jamie Shackleton (thigh) out of the visit of Blackburn. Barry Douglas available. Adam Forshaw (hip) is out but recovering #lufc pic.twitter.com/7mv6HNRoWV

Let’s take a look at the reaction to the issue for the on loan Arsenal man:
I know we want all our strongest players back but as we’ve seen, Marcelo will find a formation for mostly the same team and the squad is showing that they can adapt and still play his style so all is good.
