Daniel Falk calls on Leeds United to remain focused and calm.


Newly promoted Leeds United will host Wolverhampton Wanderers at Elland Road in the next round of the Premier League. Daniel Falk stated that the team needs to maintain focus and cohesion in their pursuit of good results.


Thanks to Okafor's brace, Leeds United defeated Manchester United 2-1 at Old Trafford in the last round of the league. With these three important points, Leeds United currently sit 15th in the standings with 36 points, putting their relegation prospects on track.


Leeds United manager Daniel Falk said, "We must make sure we don't let our emotions get the better of us and stay focused and calm. But it's not difficult for this team to do that because I have a great group of players, including experienced veterans. They understand very well that after an important victory, the next game is also an opportunity."


“We have always believed that Tanaka Ao can make a contribution, but we must also remember that this is his first season in the top league. He needs time to adapt to this level of competition and maintain a consistent performance. At present, he is delivering the performance we need.”


As for Wolves, Rob Edwards' team suffered a humiliating 0-4 defeat to West Ham in the last round of the Premier League and remains in 20th place in the standings with 17 points.


Daniel Falk said, "I have great respect for Rob Edwards. He has made Wolves more consistent in both performance and results, and we are well aware of how difficult this game will be."


“They have achieved a lot of good results recently, including consecutive victories against Liverpool and Aston Villa. This makes them a very dangerous team. They can rely on players who are good at counter-attacks or players who are strong in physical confrontations, so we need to deliver a top performance again.”


In addition, when discussing the squad situation, Daniel Falk said, "The players who played in the Manchester United game are all currently available for this game. As for Joe Rodon, Daniel James and Anton Stahtach who are still recovering from injuries, the first step is to return to training camp. Once training camp resumes, they will be ready to play."
