00:00Leeds United head coach Daniel Falker has made clear that each and every game in the Premier League is a challenge for his lead side.

00:08This comes as they prepare to face Aston Villa next up in the Premier League.

00:13Yes, to be honest, on this level, each and every game is a big, big challenge.

00:17And especially as a newly promoted side, you have to be at your very best.

00:21If you're not at your top level, you have no chance in this league to win any points.

00:25And especially against the in-form Villa side, who has top players, top manager, of course.

00:31We have to be there with a top performance and to be good in each and every detail.

00:35And it's all a bit tricky during the international break because you don't have the players there for the whole time.

00:41Some will arrive pretty late, so it's a bit challenging and complicating with the preparation.

00:46But nevertheless, we want to be spot on also in the details because if we do so, then we have a chance, especially in the home game.

00:53How well do you know Unai Emery and just what makes him so successful as a coach?

00:59Yes, he's one of the best in this business. You just have to have a look on this CV outstanding record.

01:05I think he's done outstanding work at Villa. If you have a look on this European record, it's incredible.

01:13And Bradford City got worse in their EFL trophy match against Doncaster Rovers.

01:18That's according to their manager, Graeme Alexander, who praised the Bantams' first half, but said that the second period was poor from his side.

01:26Excellent first half, poor second half. Night and day between the two performances, night and day between our approach.

01:38We were aggressive in the first half, committed to our press, committed to the roles that we had to put in place.

01:46Really confident on the ball, moved the ball really well.

01:48Dominated the first half, should have been at least two up.

01:53Taking a one-goal lead away from home, really good to then go and, like I said before, put a stamp on it and keep our foot on their throats.

02:02But we just stopped going in that final yard. We stayed four yards off our opponent.

02:08We were too easy to get one-two'd and our duels were down.

02:14We were too easy to get one.
