00:00Leeds United head coach Daniel Farker has stressed that his side have a tough run of fixtures to come in the Premier League before the next international break in mid-November.
00:13It doesn't matter where you win the points, and I also take points as an underdog against top teams in the end.
00:20You have to be there with a one-point average per game, and this is small as our approach.
00:25Right now, I wouldn't label it as an easier period for us.
00:28It's totally the other way around if we want to cut the Premier League season into pieces.
00:34We had a great start the first three games, and in between the international breaks, the last four games, I would agree we had excellent performances.
00:42We would have deserved even more points out of these four games.
00:46So four games with top performance level, but also a solid outcome out of points, four points out of these four games.
00:53It's exactly the average you need per game.
00:56It could have been a bit more, or should have been a bit more, and we're a bit unlucky, that's right.
01:02But right now it's also like the next period, and it's the same again.
01:05Out of these four games, till the next international break, we want again to win as many points as possible.
01:11I would judge it as a difficult period.
01:13And Bradford City boss Graeme Alexander has praised his side's ambition on the pitch in terms of going for goal when they can.
01:20The biggest thing for me is the ambition, the willingness to fail, the willingness to go for a shot, to try and take somebody on to play one-two,
01:31try and get the other side of the opponent, cross the ball, get into goal-scoring areas.
01:35You know, all the things that you have to be prepared to fail at and be exposed to failure, they're not scared of that.
01:42They commit to it, and, you know, that's where the risk-reward is, and there's big reward if you're willing to take the risk.
01:49So we try, we implement that all the time, we talk about it, and we make sure we never sort of admonish a player for being ambitious.
02:01You know, because if you start that, then it's counterproductive.
02:05It's, you're saying one thing, but you mean another.
02:08So we believe in giving them freedom to make mistakes with the right mindset behind it.
