Stuart Dallas reveals one rule employed by Leeds United head coach Thomas Christiansen.
Speaking to a press conference via Leeds United’s Facebook page, Stuart Dallas has claimed that head coach Thomas Christiansen does not let the players look too far ahead.
Leeds are gearing up for a third-round League Cup clash away to Premier League side Burnley tomorrow.
Christiansen’s side go into the encounter on the back of a first defeat of an otherwise great season so far after losing 1-0 away to Millwall this past weekend.
With that in mind, you could forgive the United lads – who are top of the Championship – if they were already looking at Saturday’s visit of Ipswich Town, out of an eagerness to bounce back from that disappointment.
However, Dallas has told a press conference, via the Whites’ Facebook page, that the 44-year-old boss insists his troops only focus on the next match.
Asked if there was a temptation to look beyond Burnley, Dallas said: “The manager doesn’t allow us to do that. We as players know we’re not allowed to do that
“We want a reaction tomorrow night and we can only take one game at a time. Nobody knows what’s going to happen beyond tomorrow.
“We can only take Burnley tomorrow. We’re prepared, we’ve our work done and we’ll look forward to it.”
