Daniel Farke says “a few days” was all it took for his Leeds United players to persuade him he could trust them when times were tough.

The Whites will have to treat the Championship play-offs – which for them means a two-legged semi-final against Farke’s former club Norwich City on Sunday and Thursday – as a reset after a disappointing run of form. Since March's international break, Leeds have won two of eight matches, losing four of the last six.
'I got used to the character of every player and saw what they could do on the pitch and I was believing in them but I knew we had many young players in key positions and we had to work with them, first of all on their tactical behaviour, on their football skills, but also to develop their personalities.
