The team has been consistent throughout the season and currently leads the Championship.
Wilfried Gnonto believes Daniel Farke, Leeds United’s manager, is confident in his ability to lead the team to Championship promotion.
Farke was hired by new owners 49ers Enterprises last year with the goal of returning the club to the Premier League as soon as possible. Despite the summer transfer window chaos, the team currently leads the Championship with eight games remaining and is on track to do so in an unprecedented season.
“There have been many moments where I was not at the top [of my game] and he was there telling me,” Gnonto told the Official Leeds United podcast of Farke. “He was there telling me in training, things I can do better, he is always there telling you. But also when you do good things he is there telling you and I think that’s fair because it has to go both ways.
“You can tell the way we are playing, the way we do things, you can tell the coach knows what he’s doing. For us, it’s just about believing because we believe we can go up, we believe we are the best team in the league and we want to show it every week. Having a coach that knows the league, knows how to get promoted, it’s easier for us. And with this quality, it will be a shame not to get promoted.”
Most Leeds supporters are desperate for an instant return to the Premier League but the refreshing feeling of enjoying football again has permeated all portions of the fanbase. Two seasons of dismal top-flight football saw patience worn thin but a young and exciting core of players has been crucial to improving the mood.
