The mood among Leeds United fans took a significant turn for the worst last weekend, as everything that could go wrong for the Whites, pretty much did. Jesse Marsch's side losing to Manchester City may not have been a huge shock, disappointing though it was, but wins for Burnley and Everton have changed the complexion of the relegation battle.
Leeds' Premier League future is now technically out of their hands, although a positive run of results in the remaining games would surely give them a fighting chance of staying in the Premier League. That the next two games are Arsenal at Emirates Stadium and Chelsea at Elland Road, underlines the task in hand.
However, final fixtures against Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford could yet prove vital, and it must not be forgotten Marsch and co were unbeaten in five before City came to town.
