Leeds United supporters weigh in on 'bold' Jesse Marsch selection for Leicester City clash

Crysencio Summerville has been handed his first Premier League start as Leeds boss Jesse Marsch makes four changes to his starting XI against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

Summerville starts over Jack Harrison, who drops to the bench for the first time in the Premier League this season. Patrick Bamford comes in from the start at the expense of Rodrigo, while Diego Llorente replaces Leeds skipper Liam Cooper.

Junior Firpo makes his first start of the season after Pascal Struijk misses out with a knock. Marsch has also restored Wilfried Gnonto to the bench, after leaving him out of the squad for the defeat against Arsenal on Sunday.

Leeds (4-2-3-1): Meslier; Kristensen, Koch, Llorente, Firpo; Adams, Roca; Summerville, Aaronson, Sinisterra; Bamford.

Subs: Klaesson, Ayling, Cooper, Klich, Greenwood, Harrison, Rodrigo, Gelhardt, Gnonto.

Here is how fans reacted to the latest starting XI named by Marsch.

@Yorkie6013 Well that's interesting to say the least. I guess this will show if Summerville is ready, but not happy with Llorente in.

@LUFC_Arizona Cooper and Harrison out. Interesting.

@lufcwilks2_ Summerville masterclass.

@BinghamDj Hmm some big calls there, especially the way we played second half vs Arsenal. Hope it doesn't backfire.

@rico74leeds Really wasn't expecting Cooper and Harrison out, but we do have a strong bench, come on Leeds.

@Alltheleedstalk Summerville needs to show us why he picked that 10 shirt. Has to take this opportunity.

@ryanjohnd83 Bold, Jack on the bench.

@nigelLUFC Great to see Crysencio Summerville in from the start. I hope his performance makes it hard for Jesse Marsch to leave him out of the next game.
