Leeds United are faltering at the moment.
Daniel Farke’s side aren’t kicking on just as they need to find a bit of form.
We’re heading into the business end of the season, and tensions are starting to rise at the top of the Championship.
Indeed, Leeds United are desperate for promotion, but, just at the point where it matters, the west Yorkshire club are starting to falter.
Leeds have dropped points in three of their last four games now, and their game against Sunderland this week was particularly frustrating.
Speaking on the Inside Elland Road Podcast, Graham Smyth has been discussing Leeds’ game against Sunderland, and he noted one moment that made Daniel Farke lose his temper.
Why Daniel Farke lost his temper
Speaking on the podcast, Smyth noted that Farke lost his temper as Leeds continuously failed to play the ball down the right side even when players were free down that flank.
“Leeds could’ve worked it to get the ball down the right more often. You saw it in Farke, when Leeds went down the left again and Gray and James were essentially all alone down the right, Farke clearly wanted the ball played down the right and he briefly lost his temper,” Smyth said.
Leeds are getting nervy
Nerves seem to be affecting Leeds United now more than ever.
The Whites are on the verge of making it back to the Premier League, but that goal feels so close yet so far away.
Leeds know that a few good results will turn the tide in their favour, but the added pressure leads to added nerves which can lead to poor performances.
The players are certainly feeling it, and, by the sounds of it, Daniel Farke is also feeling it as he lost his temper a bit on the touchline this week.
Farke is usually a cool character on the touchline, but with how tight things are getting at the top of the league, it sounds as though the German is getting a bit techy right now.
