Clinton Morrison questions Javi Gracia 'dragging' Wilfried Gnonto treatment
Former Premier League striker Clinton Morrison has questioned Leeds United manager Javi Gracia's treatment of Wilfried Gnonto after the star made his reappearance on the Whites bench last night.
After suffering an ankle injury while on international duty with Italy, the 19-year-old was forced to take a break on the sidelines for Leeds' last few games. Having been one of the club's standout transfers since his arrival for just £4m in September last year, Morrison is worried that Gracia might be 'dragging' him off too early in matches.
"I thought [Leeds] were outstanding, on the front foot, Harrison causing problems," Morrison said on BBC Sport's Football Daily podcast last night.
"[Weston] McKennie, he’s a player in midfield by the way, always wants to look forward, neat and tidy, and they just looked a threat the whole game going forward, Sinisterra on the left-hand side.
"I’m a big [Wilfried] Gnonto fan. I know he’s just coming back from injury, but Javi Gracia hasn’t really been playing him that much and when he does play him he drags him after 50-60 minutes. But I thought going forward tonight they were outstanding."

Many Whites stars commented underneath the post, including Roca who said: "Mein Brudeerrr" which translates to 'my brother' in German along with two fire emojis.
Pascal Struijk, Liam Cooper and Sam Greenwood also commented, along with Austrian international Wober who simply put: "Maschine" - the German word for 'machine'.
Leicester City told Marcelo Bielsa the best option in their relegation battle with Leeds United
Former Leeds United manager Marcelo Bielsa is the best option as manager for Leicester City if they are to win their relegation battle and avoid falling out of the Premier League. That's the message from pundit and former player Ally McCoist, who believes the Foxes should turn to the ex-Leeds boss to win a relegation fight which features the Whites.
Leicester sacked Brendan Rodgers at the weekend and saw their plight worsen when beaten 2-1 by Aston Villa on Tuesday night, as Leeds were pulling away from trouble with their own 2-1 win over Nottingham Forest.
Speaking on TalkSPORT on Wednesday, McCoist has suggested that the new manager bounce which would accompany an appointment of somebody of Bielsa's stature and ability, could make all the difference for the Foxes in their basement battle.
