'Prime Bielsa' Leeds United fans weigh in as Jean-Kevin Augustin misses out on squad to face Wigan

Leeds United fans have been reacting to the unchanged starting line-up top face Wigan - and Marcelo Bielsa's decision to keep new signing Jean Kevin-Augustin out of the matchday squad.

The French striker, who arrived in West Yorkshire on Monday is not included in the 18 as he continues to get up to speed under Bielsa.

Kiko Casilla continues in goal, with Stuart Dallas likely to start at right-back, with Luke Ayling in the middle next to skipper Liam Cooper and Gjanni Alioski at left-back.

Ben White looks set to fill in for the suspended Kalvin Phillips in midfield, with Mateusz Klich and Pablo Hernandez ahead of him.

Helder Costa and Jack Harrison will provide the width, with Patrick Bamford, who netted twice against Millwall on Tuesday night, again leading the line.

New signing Ian Poveda is again on the bench, as is Gaetano Berardi, who returns from injury.

Leeds United: Casilla, Ayling, White, Cooper, Dallas, Alioski, Klich, Harrison, Costa, Hernandez, Bamford

Subs: Meslier, Casey, Berardi, Shackleton, Poveda, Stevens, Roberts

Here's how fans reacted to today's team news - with the Augustin decision taking centre stage...
