Leeds United have suffered a lot with injuries this season, with Jamal Blackman the latest to be hit with a serious setback.

The on-loan Chelsea player broke his leg whilst playing for the U23s over the international break when playing against Birmingham City.

That was a massive blow for Marcelo Bielsa, with the Argentinian coach since revealing that Blackman was set to start against Bristol City this weekend.

However, despite the injury, the 25-year-old took to social media to send a positive message to his teammates ahead of their clash against the Robins.

Blackman included a picture of fellow keepers Bailey Peacock-Farrell and Will Huffer, with the latter, an England U20 international, set to start today.

That's because the Northern Ireland international has also had an injury, with Peacock-Farrell unlikely to play for the next few weeks.

Given the nature of Blackman's blow and the frustration the player will have felt, Leeds fans were delighted to see he is still supporting his teammates.

Here's how they reacted to his message on twitter...
