Rumours of Dismissal Spark Confusion
Leeds United supporters are voicing their strong opposition to any potential decision to part ways with manager Daniel Farke, despite swirling rumours about his future. Former Scotland striker Frank McAvennie expressed his bewilderment over the speculation, especially with the club currently enjoying a commendable third place in the Championship standings.
Unbeaten Run Continues
A recent 2-1 victory over Watford has kept Farke’s team unbeaten in their last six league matches, bringing them closer to league leaders Sunderland. After narrowly missing promotion last season, Leeds are on a determined quest to return to the Premier League under Farke’s leadership.
Positive Progress After a Rocky Start
With six wins, four draws, and just one defeat from their first 11 league games, Leeds are showing promising signs after a challenging start. To secure automatic promotion, they will need to maintain this strong form, as recent seasons have shown that around 90 points is often the benchmark.
Fans’ Loyalty to Farke
McAvennie noted that Farke’s demeanor on the sidelines may not convey his success, saying, “He looks so miserable on the side of the pitch.” However, he believes the support for Farke remains steadfast: “I think the Leeds support would go mad if they sacked him because he’s doing ever so well.” The fans have fond memories of former manager Marcelo Bielsa, who was beloved during his time at the club, but McAvennie believes Farke is earning his place in their hearts.
Looking Ahead
While Leeds may not always dazzle with their style of play, results are what matter most, and the recent performances have shown improvement. As the season progresses, all eyes will be on Farke and his squad as they aim for promotion and seek to keep the fans’ faith intact.
