OPPOSING MANAGER - DANIEL FARKE
The German began his playing career with hometown club SV Steinhausen but went on to spend a majority of his playing days with SV Lippstadt, playing for them in three different spells across his career.
After retiring, Farke remained with Lippstadt in a coaching role before also coaching Borussia Dortmund II.
However, Farke’s most significant role came in England with Norwich City from 2017 until 2021, winning the Championship title twice in that time for the Canaries, before being dismissed from his role in November 2021 after losing a record-breaking 15 successive Premier League games.
Farke returned to his home country to take charge of Borussia Monchengladbach where he had one season, before returning to England in July 2023 to manage Leeds, where he lost in the Championship play-off final in his first season, before winning the league last season with 100 points and returning to the Premier League.
DANGER MEN
Leeds are a huge threat from set-pieces and that is largely down to the impressive aerial ability of defender Joe Rodon.
The Welshman already has two Premier League goals this season and Farke’s men will try to make the most of any opportunity to get the ball into the box and towards Rodon, so avoiding giving away corners and free-kicks close to the box could be key.
Leeds also possess plenty of pace in attacking areas so could look to sit back and counter-attack using the pace of the likes of Noah Okafor, Daniel James and Brendan Aaronson.
At the top end of the pitch, Dominic Calvert-Lewin is an experienced Premier League forward and despite not being in prolific goalscoring form, the striker is a physical presence and enjoys a physical tussle, so, if selected, he could look to make life difficult for our backline.
Team News
Returning are Gianluigi Donnarumma, Matheus Nunes, Josko Gvardiol, Ruben Dias, Nico O’Reilly, Bernardo, Phil Foden, Jeremy Doku and Erling Haaland.
Only Nico and Tijjani Reijnders retain their starting berths against Leeds United, with everyone bar Oscar Bobb dropping down to the bench.
