Leeds United have started to find form in the Championship and they have received a lot of compliments from opposition managers
Leeds United endured a tough start to the Championship season but now look well placed for a play-off push. The Whites were relegated from the Premier League and the subsequent summer exodus was always likely and always going to mean they would struggle to hit the ground running back in the second tier.
'Elland Road is a tough place to come' QPR boss Gareth Ainsworth was also impressed by he Leeds squad. 'Leeds, who will be up there at the end of the season' Russell Martin's Southampton handed Leeds a 3-1 defeat, but he is another who believes the Whites will be challenging for promotion this season.
'They showed their quality' Watford were sent packing from Elland Road after Leeds turned in an impressive 3-0 win. Here is Valerien Ismael's take: "Throughout the 90 minutes today, the opponent was much better. They are a top team and they showed their quality. From our side, even when you know it will be a tough game, you have to make it harder for the opposition.”Liam Rosenior Hull City held ten-man Leeds to goaless draw at home and Tigers boss Liam Rosenior rued his side's missed chance at a big scalp.
“We got to grips with our press, we got to grips with our possession play. From the red card onwards, it was domination, which it should be. I felt it was two very good teams.
