Leeds United: Gordon Strachan blown away by what Daniel Farke did

Gordon Strachan has been blown away by Daniel Farke and has lauded Leeds United for appointing him in the summer.

Last season, Leeds sacked Jesse Marsch and Javi Gracia and also showed Sam Allardyce the door post relegation.

Farke was chosen as the man to guide the side out of the Championship and he's done a good job with the team in second place.

Strachan told the club's official website: “I think the club has recovered very well from last season, I thought it would possibly take a bit longer but It was an excellent move from the club to bring in Daniel [Farke]. Excellent, excellent move.

"The players themselves knew they owed the fans and they had a look at themselves, inspired by Daniel, and with all due respect they have done that. Hopefully, they’re on their way back to getting to where they should be in the eyes of the footballing world. So, fair play to everybody involved to get playing this type of football.

“I think the whole group has done great together to produce the football we’re seeing which is exciting, fun and we’re all enjoying it. So, well done to everybody.”

Farke was the right appointment for Leeds United

Farke's appointment as Leeds manager has proven to be a masterstroke, evident in the team's current position in the Championship.

The German's previous success with Norwich City, achieving two promotions, showcased his ability to guide teams to higher divisions.

His tactical acumen and ability to instil belief in players have revitalised Leeds, inspiring them to perform at their best.

Under Farke's guidance, the Whites have played an exciting brand of football, captivating fans and pundits alike.

Moreover, Farke's influence extends beyond the pitch, as he has fostered a positive atmosphere within the club, motivating players to repay the fans' support.

His leadership has been instrumental in the team's resurgence from the disappointments of the previous season, earning deserved praise from legends like Strachan.
