Such is the way of the modern game that every word uttered by managers like Leeds United's Daniel Farke is scrutinised and the same can be true of the words left unsaid.
Farke and Leeds decided last week that with no contractual obligation to hold a pre-game press conference for the play-off semi-final second leg, there was no real argument to do so. The logic? Well what has changed since he last spoke to the media after Sunday's 0-0 first leg draw? The opponent is the same. He's talked about facing Norwich already on three separate occasions this season. His feelings on that club and the difficulty they pose as a team are no different.
Are your players ready for such a big game? Yes they have been focused and they are prepared but it is one thing to bring the ideas to the head and the hearts of the players, they need to bring it onto the pitch, but I trust all my players. What role will the Elland Road fans play? We need each and every supporter, especially in difficult moments. Put a mic in his hand this week and he would, of course, play all the hits.
