In his pre-match press conference Leeds United manager Paul Heckingbottom has defended striker Caleb Ekuban after another match in which he failed to score on Tuesday night.
Losing 2-0 away to Fulham, the striker missed a golden chance to hit the back of the net but failed to properly test Marcus Bettinelli.
The 24-year-old has scored just one goal in 15 English Championship appearances this season and fans are growing concerned he’ll never score on a consistent basis for the Elland Road side.
There’s also frustration he is currently getting a regular game ahead of Pierre-Michel Lasogga, who has netted 10 times this season.
Supporters are worried that Heckingbottom continues to rate the player, believing that if they go into next term with him leading the line that they are doomed to suffer another inadequate season.
Can he turn things round in the closing stages of the Championship, starting with Sunderland this weekend?
Fans took to Twitter to share their thoughts on it all…
