Leeds United will quickly return to action with Tuesday night’s Championship trip to Sunderland, ahead of which Whites manager Daniel Farke once again spoke to the media today.

Third-placed Leeds continued their excellent recent form with Saturday’s 2-0 win at Blackburn Rovers via goals from Dan James and Crysencio Summerville. The second of quickfire consecutive away games will now present itself on Tuesday evening against sixth-placed Sunderland at the Stadium of Light.

The Black Cats sacked manager Tony Mowbray after the previous weekend’s 1-1 draw at Millwall left the club in ninth place but Sunderland bounced back with a 2-1 triumph at home to Saturday’s visitors West Brom which put the team back in the play-offs places. Mike Dodds is currently in caretaker charge as the club’s search for a new boss continues. Farke held his pre-match press conference at 2pm at Thorp Arch and here is every word from United’s boss.
