Leeds United manager Daniel Farke has been speaking with the media at Thorp Arch, prior to his side taking on Plymouth Argyle this weekend.

The Whites face The Pilgrims on Saturday afternoon (3pm), looking to continue their unbeaten run at Elland Road so far in the 2023/24 campaign.

The manager shared his thoughts on our upcoming opponents. 

He said: “I like them a lot and I have to say I am respectful because last season they were used to winning football games. 

“They play with confidence and freedom and have had some really good results, especially at home, but also away with good performances. 

“At Ipswich, they were the better side and were unlucky to lose this game. It speaks volumes, as they’ve got players who score goals and deliver.  

“Their offensive players are brave and cheeky in a positive way, and I really like this.  

“We have to be spot on in order to be highly motivated, to be successful in this game. I am full of respect and we have to be on it.

“This game has the same value as the Leicester game, because it's also about three points.

“We have to make sure that we go into it and everyone is prepared in a perfect way, and to be honest, we need the whole stadium.

"We need the ticket office, we need the guys who sell the burgers, we need each and every supporter to make sure that we create an atmosphere. 

“We need it where it is outstanding, where it is impressive for our opponents, but where we make sure it's our fortress, it's Elland Road.”
