Faes warning

Leicester City star Wout Faes has sent a warning to Leeds that the Foxes are intent on bouncing back after suffering defeat during the week. "You have a very big game and we are winning, winning, winning and then you lose one then you want to get back to winning ways as soon as possible," he said.

"But even if we won or drew, I think we would go with the same intensity, but now it makes it maybe 1% extra to get the result there and take the three points."

Marsch verdict

Former Leeds boss Jesse Marsch has been speaking about his old club, singling one player out for special praise. He told Sky Sports when asked if he checks the club's results: “Yes, I have. They are playing good football. It’s good to see a lot of the young lads that were establishing themselves when I was there really starting to play well.

“It’s good to see Archie Gray establishing himself as a good young talent. I am really happy for him. I think they are on a pathway right now to get themselves back in the Premier League."
