Leo Hjelde is still getting to know his new boss Daniel Farke, but it’s fair to say he has been impressed with what he has seen so far. Farke met his Leeds United players for the first time last week following the announcement of his appointment last Tuesday and his time on the Thorp Arch training field has been minimal since.
However, with the start of the Championship season fast approaching, it seems he has wasted no time in making an impact on his players. There were glimpses of Farke’s preferred way of playing during the Whites’ meeting with Manchester United on Wednesday evening in Norway, with Leeds looking to play out from the back and counter attack quickly through the likes of Luis Sinisterra and Ian Poveda.
Unfortunately, the manager couldn’t get his time at United underway with a win at Ullevaal Stadion, but it seems he has done enough over his first week in charge to make inroads and get his message across.
