'Gutted' - Leeds United fans fear the worst after Diego Llorente injury against Newcastle

Leeds United fans have been reacting to the injury to Diego Llorente against Newcastle.

Llorente returned to the starting line-up after having a spell on the sidelines with a groin injury, but now looks to be out of action for another unspecified period of time.

The Spaniard appeared to go down holding his hamstring at St James’ Park, and the Leeds backroom team did not hesitate to bring him off and replace the centre-back with Pascal Struijk.

Leeds fans watching the game took to social media to express their thoughts and emotions of Llorente’s injury, with an overwhelming theme emerging.

Here is a selection of what they had to say.

Paul G: “Llorente will need a full pre season with us now. It’ll be bit part till then. He’ll be a right player for us when all the kings horses and all the kings men put him back together again.”

Daniel: “Llorente lasting 8 mins is very Leeds. Gutted.”

Mcbailey99: “Llorente do a medical or not??”

Andrew Clarke: “Llorente is made of glass.”

Simon McMaster: “Did we keep Llorente’s receipt?”

David C-Walker: “Is Llorente made of glass/extremely unlucky or rubbish at warming up.”
