Click here if you can’t see the comments. The Whites have been in the headlines for what feels like all the wrong reasons since 4pm on Sunday. The major blow came on Monday night when The Athletic reported FIFA had ruled Leeds must pay Jean-Kevin Augustin £24.5m for an alleged breach of contract.

It was not a major surprise to learn the French striker had pursued lost earnings once the Court of Arbitration for Sport had ruled in RB Leipzig's favour on the transfer monies owed. What was your reaction to the news? United are appealing the decision, but what are your thoughts on the whole saga?

The Augustin news came hot on the heels of Sunday's demoralising hammering at the hands of Crystal Palace. Where does that result leave the Whites in your opinion? We can get stuck into the final eight games and how many points Leeds may pick up.

There was also confirmation Leeds will not be heading to the summer pre-season tournament arranged in the USA by the Premier League. There had been hopes at Elland Road of being involved, but new plans will be made for the summer.
