Leeds  lost yet another game under Paul heckingbottom on Tuesday night, away at Preston where the score ended 3-1.

It wasn't without its controversy though, after Leeds took the lead through Kemar Roofe in the 13th minute.

Preston equalised through a Paul Gallagher penalty before Sean Maguire put Preston in the lead shortly afterwards.

Heckingbottom railed against Maguire's goal after the game, claiming the game should have been stopped as Pontus Jansson was down with a head injury.

However, Preston's manager Alex Neil saw nothing wrong with it and thought Jansson was making the most of things, claiming no one touched him.

And if Jansson was expecting any sympathy from his fans he was in for a nasty surprise, with many of them taking to Twitter to criticise the enforcer, who they think tends to make the most of injuries when the going gets tough.

Here are the best reactions to Jansson's display last night:
