Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa has explained his decision not to start England U21 international Eddie Nketiah this season.
The 20-year-old, who is loan from Arsenal, came off the bench to salvage a 1-1 draw for Leeds at Preston last night, as the Yorkshire side missed their chance to go top of the Championship.
But despite having started eight games in a row without scoring, and possessing a much lower goals-to-minutes ratio than Nketiah, Bielsa has preferred to play Patrick Bamford up top for the promotion hopefuls.
Speaking to reporters after the game, Bielsa defended his decision, claiming that despite not scoring former Chelsea youngster Bamford offers more to the team.
