Our Leeds fans here in the Transfer Tavern are looking forward to seeing their side back in action already and are longing for the end of the international break.
It’s a part of the season that always feels like a kick in the teeth after the club game has returned for the first few weeks of the new campaign and so the sooner it is over the better for many.
Certainly, Leeds will be wanting to get back together as soon as possible thanks to their early form building some serious momentum and they’ll be hoping their players come back as fit as can be.
However, that hope has taken an early knock with Eunan O’Kane coming out of the Republic of Ireland with a groin injury – as per Lee Sobot on Twitter:
FA of Ireland reporting that Eunan O’Kane has pulled out of the Republic of Ireland squad and returned to #lufc due to a groin complaint.

Fans, then, have reacted to this and so, with that in mind, here is the best of what has been said:
Ain’t this an ongoing problem of his

Hope it’s nout serious. Although the strength in depth in midfield is fantastic. Klich is class, Anita is class and Vieira is class.

It’s fine that’s why we have loads of midfielders, let’s just hope it isn’t but serious and it’s just a caution

Oh no!!! Isn’t this how it all went wrong for him last year?!

Thought this was sorted last season hence time out. He is playing incredibly well but he arrived here with this, poorly managed imo

As long as he’s fit for Burton, we good!
