Leeds boss Marcelo Bielsa has confirmed that he will be without three important p;layers for the Hammers visit tomorrow.
It’s understood that sometimes managers play smoke and mirrors but that’s not Bielsa’s stock in trade and it appears the Irons will be boosted by the absence of a Leeds big three.
The team will be without the international trio of Diego Llorente, Robin Kocj and Patrick Bamford whilst others could be on the missing list.
The team was without Bamford and Luke Ayling for the midweek Carabao Cup trip to Fulham, the pair having picked up ankle and knee issues respectively at Newcastle United last Friday night.
Raphinha also came off with a suspected hip problem at St James’ Park and he too did not feature in the cup.
“Llorente, Koch and Bamford won’t be available,” said Bielsa admitting he couldn’t be definite about the others.
