Leeds United are currently in sixth place in the Championship table.

Jamie Beattie has told Leeds United’s official website that the Elland Road side must learn to stamp out individual errors.

Leeds have been in wonderful form recently, winning nine of their last 12 matches.

The Whites are now in sixth place in the Championship table, but Beattie wants Leeds to improve even further.

The first-team coach claims that Leeds have made too many sloppy mistakes during the campaign so far.

“There are things that we still need to work on, there were a couple of individual errors which we need to stamp out,” the former Accrington Stanley manager said.

“We can’t get carried away with our league position at the moment, there is still a lot of hard work ahead.

“There are many good teams in and around us, the league is very tight, there are only a few points between teams from 17th to the play-offs.”

Leeds’ latest victory was arguably their most impressive of the campaign so far, as they beat promotion chasing Norwich City at Carrow Road.

Leeds beat the Canaries 3-2, with a late goal from Ronaldo Vieira sealing the three points for Garry Monk’s men.

Leeds are next in action after the international break, when they take on Newcastle United in front of what is expected to be a sold out Elland Road crowd.
