    Leeds United

    A final word from Leeds boss Daniel Farke, who said there is a chance for Facundo Buonanotte to make a matchday squad soon, if he can "deliver consistently" in training:

    "You have to do this over a few weeks in order to be back in the spotlight as it also means when I call him up, I would need to leave a different player from the offence out. He's edged closer in recent weeks."

  5. Tanaka is 'happy with us'published at 15:56 BST

    Daniel Farke on speculation of Japan midfielder Ao Tanaka's future at Leeds: "Really good performances so based on that I don't see anything and I know he loves to play for this club and is happy with us. I'm very happy with his development.

    "He's not very young anymore but it's his first season in the top flight in his career, we found him in the second tier and believed in him. There are always ups and downs - he had a good start to Premier League life but you could also see that there were moments he needed to adapt. He was pretty self-critical at times."

  6. 'We all know how much it means' - Farke on Leeds-Man Utd rivalrypublished at 15:54 BST

    Leeds United

    Leeds boss Daniel Farke on the rivalry with Manchester United: "We all know how much it means to everyone connected to Leeds United. Such a game. And of course we want to make our supporters proud and give them.

    "We wouldn't even need extra motivation because of course we play for every point. We have to fight for every goal to score and to avoid goals against us.

    "To do this would be a major boost and of course help our situation in the table. We're looking forward to have this game on Monday."

    He added: "It's important to take this [rivalry] into this fixture. When you're in touch with our supporters in every day life, you know how much it means to them and you don't need to point it out to the players.

    "It's even important to make sure the players aren't over-motivated and go across the line. It's important to play with fire and heart but also cool in the head."

  7. Leeds can't 'park the bus'published at 15:52 BST

    Leeds United

    Daniel Farke on how Leeds United could end that winless league run at Old Trafford: "We need bravery. It won't be possible if we just park the bus and try to defend in order to survive there.

    "It's important that you have many spells where you try to press them and dominate the ball and create chances, but of course we need a good balance. They have many threats on the offence and it's important to control this.

    "We need the ball as much as possible in order to give ourselves a chance."

  8. 45 years and countingpublished at 15:50 BST

    Man Utd v Leeds (Mon, 20:00 BST)

    Leeds United have gone 18 games without a league win at Old Trafford, since Brian Flynn scored an 85th-minute winner for the visitors in a famous 1-0 victory in the First Division, in February 1981.

  9. Leeds 'have a chance' at our 'top performance level' - Farkepublished at 15:43 BST

    Man Utd v Leeds (Mon, 20:00 BST)

    Leeds United

    Leeds boss Daniel Farke on Leeds having not won at Old Trafford in the league since 1981: "We can speak about once we've more or less done it, otherwise it wouldn't be respectful to talk about what a win would mean. But of course, we had a similar experience in the FA Cup and we know how much everyone valued our success there.

    "We also know about the rivalry and of course it's a very difficult task to travel to Old Trafford and win points there. But we also know if we go and we are at our top performance level then we have a chance."

  10. 'No coincidence' Man Utd had good results under Carrickpublished at 15:37 BST

    Daniel Farke on Michael Carrick's time as Manchester United manager so far: "After a few weeks it's a bit too early to judge, but Michael has played at the top level with world-class players and been able to win trophies and this experience helps.

    "His team always plays with a lot of confidence and freedom and offensive movements and it's difficult to control. I like his style a lot and it suits his team, full of top players. It's no coincidence they've had so many good results, especially in their home games."

    More from Leeds boss Daniel Farke on Monday's opponents Manchester United not playing for 20 days: "It's difficult to anticipate. It can be an advantage or disadvantage. They didn't have games or injuries, but on the other hand they can also enjoy themselves in training.

    "You never know, especially at this time in the season, to have such a long break. I expect a difficult game for us."

  12. FA Cup win 'good for mood and confidence'published at 15:30 BST

    Man Utd v Leeds (Mon, 20:00 BST)

    Leeds United

    Leeds boss Daniel Farke on FA Cup win: "It's a different competition, it doesn't help us in terms of points but there's no replacement for wins. It's good to know that we struggled with set-backs in this game [against West Ham], with injuries, a couple of decisions and late goals against us, but still kept our nerves and dealt with set-backs. It's good for the mood and confidence for us."

  13. Leeds given added boost - Suttonpublished at 15:28 BST

    Former Premier League striker Chris Sutton said Leeds' FA Cup quarter-final win at West Ham should give them an added boost for the Premier League run-in.

    "There's a really nice balance about them this season," said Sutton on BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club. "I mean that in the way that they defend as well as having their players at the top of the pitch who score and make a difference.

    "Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been key to that.

    "They are four points clear of West Ham so if you are looking at the table as a player then you are thinking 'we are nearly there'."

    Leeds boss Daniel Farke on Anton Stach and Joe Rodon's expected returns: "It's difficult to say - with a ligament injury, normally you'd say it's not realistic that they were able to help us in April but of course the medical department are trying everything. It's a crunch point of the season.

    "At this moment, it's realistic to say that we'll see them back in May."

    Joe Rodon and Dan James will also miss the trip to Old Trafford, while there are "question marks" over Noah Okafor and Jaka Bijol.

    Gabriel Gudmundsson has made "light progress" in his recovery but is also a doubt.

    Leeds fans will be hoping their team can take the positivity from the penalty shootout win against West Ham on Sunday into their remaining seven vital matches.

    Boss Daniel Farke believes the victory was good for 'belief and spirit' among his players who are fighting to stay in the top flight.

    "In terms of points it doesn't help at all but each win is good for confidence, to know we can deliver under pressure and deal with set-backs," he said.

    "There was criticism with scoring goals in the last games so it was good we put this to bed. It's good for confidence and belief and spirit."

    Leeds United

    After last Sunday's FA Cup thriller against West Ham United, Leeds have to return to reality as they race to stay in the Premier League.

    Daniel Farke's relegation-threatened side travel to Old Trafford on Monday to face top-five chasing Manchester United.

    The return fixture in January finished 1-1 at Elland Road but this might feel like a must-win for both teams for two very different reasons.

  20. What's left for Leeds?published at 15:16 BST

    Man Utd v Leeds (Mon, 20:00 BST)

    Leeds have made the FA Cup semi-finals, where they will face Chelsea on 26 April.

    That fixture, steeped in footballing folklore, looms large, but not as large as the final match of their Premier League season at rivals West Ham.

    Could it all come down to that?
