Leeds United: Tom Lockyer shares Elland Road dressing room verdict live on Sky Sports
The Leeds United dressing room is a “special” place this season, currently holding a “unique” confidence over Leicester City, Ipswich Town and Southampton.
That is according to Luton Town star Tom Lockyer, who has been impressed by the Whites’ determination to catch up with the Foxes at the top of the Championship table.
It looked as though Enzo Maresca’s men were running away with the league title, but both Leeds and Ipswich have managed to overcome the gap at the top.
As David Prutton asked which dressing room he would rather be in, Lockyer replied live on Sky Sports on Monday (1 April): “It has to be Leeds, I think. The form they’ve been in is quite special, the way they’ve been able to claw Leicester back in is quite special really.
“The confidence they’ll have in that dressing room will be quite unique.”
Can Leeds United lift the Championship trophy this season?
Leeds have every chance of pipping Leicester and Ipswich to the Championship title this season, bouncing straight back up to the Premier League after relegation.
However, the Foxes and the Tractor Boys are showing plenty of fight, with no signs of letting up during the end-of-season run-in, which will see the title race come right down to the wire.
Considering Daniel Farke’s previous experience in the second tier with Norwich City, the Whites have been left in very capable hands, having got the best out of some very young stars at Elland Road.
The playoffs still beckon for one of the three teams, though, and Leeds must make sure that they are one of the two teams promoted automatically.
Absolutely anything can happen during the playoffs, and with the current strong contenders of Southampton, West Brom and Norwich City, it is not a battle that Leeds will want to get caught up in.
