Pablo Hernandez is a major doubt for Leeds upcoming clash with Derby County, something that could prove to be the straw that breaks the camel's back at Elland Road.

Marcelo Bielsa's side have been rocked by continual injuries since the start of the season, whenever one player comes back it seems another is out.

News that Hernandez could be absent is not likely to be well received, given the recent departure of Samu Saiz and Lewis Baker being recalled by Chelsea.

Leeds are still top of the Championship, despite back to back defeats against Hull City and Nottingham Forest, but they're struggling for form. The FA Cup third round defeat against QPR made it three losses in three games, a stats Bielsa will be keen to turn around quickly.

Without one of their most creative players it could be a challenge and some Leeds fans have been on Twitter lamenting the possible absence of the 33-year-old Spaniard.

There is a feeling that Bielsa will struggle to field a competitive side with the current wafer-thin squad and they're hoping for some manoeuvring in the transfer market over the coming days.

Here's a selection of their best responses.
