Key Leeds figure provides positive player update ahead of Sheffield United clash

The big games keep coming in the Championship and Leeds United are certainly in for a stern test as they face Sheffield United tomorrow night.

The men from Elland Road got a much-needed win last weekend against Bristol City and will certainly be looking to get themselves another win in front of their own fans against a high-flying Blades side. Sheffield United are one of the teams to beat in this season’s Championship race and so we could be in for a cracker once the first whistle blows tomorrow night.

It’s going to be a game that is won by the most together side more than likely, then, and it looks as though Leeds are certainly together in a positive update from Thomas Christiansen.

Indeed, as quoted by Adam Pope on Twitter, the Leeds manager has said that Liam Cooper has been helping Stuart Dallas after a recent bereavement:

TC says Stuart Dallas is mentally strong & has been well looked after by captain Liam Cooper following his bereavement. #lufc

At times like that football is always put into perspective and it is good to see that the skipper is doing what he can do to help his team-mate out. That spirit will be positive throughout the season, too, as they look to get promoted.

The Verdict

Leeds will need to be together in this game tomorrow as it is bound to be a big test of their credentials.

They can test Sheffield United tomorrow night, though, and so we should be in for a real good game between two sides aiming for promotion.
