Every word Daniel Farke said in pre-Stoke City press conference as Leeds United boss offers team news hints
Leeds go in search of their fourth straight victory in the Potteries this week as Alex Neil’s 20th-placed Stoke stand in the way of United consolidating themselves as the Championship’s form team.
Only Leicester City, Middlesbrough and Ipswich Town have taken more points than Leeds from their last five matches. United have been beaten just once in their last ten games, although that did come away from home.

47’ Costa
57’ Cooper
72’ Hernández
90+3’ Bamford
Remember when…
Stoke City 0-3 Leeds United - August 2019
Gjanni Alioski and Patrick Bamford on the scoresheet and *that* Stuart Dallas goal - the good old days.
Promotion with the current group might not top 2019/20 but it would certainly be a fitting reward for the hard work done so far by Daniel Farke, his staff and players.
And, at least we’d all be there to witness it this time. Still, a long way to go in the season.
