'Absolute scenes', 'Beautiful' - Leeds United fans react to team news vs Crystal Palace

The Whites can leapfrog Arsenal into 10th with a win over the Eagles, and will be looking to exact some revenge for November’s heavy 4-1 defeat at Selhurst Park.

Marcelo Bielsa's men were narrowly beaten by Everton in their last outing, but will be hoping to build on recent positive results against Leicester City and Newcastle United.

Away from the starting XI, promising teenager striker Joe Gelhardt has been named on the bench, with many supporters expressing their excitement at his involvement with the senior side, while Pablo Hernandez’s absence through injury was another talking point for many.
