Leeds fan Gyp Walters says the team has shown they are “still up for it” despite already achieving their main objective of Premier League survival.
West Ham‘s defeat on Sunday confirmed safety for Daniel Farke’s side, but the Whites still showed fight to come from a goal down in Monday’s 1-1 draw at Spurs and could have easily won the game late on.
“At the start of the season I thought we would survive and the reason is we would be really hard to beat,” Walters told BBC Radio 5 Live Breakfast.
“That’s 10 games in a row now away that we haven’t lost.
“We’ve gone 23 games with only four losses in total. We’re always going to be tough to beat but we’ve proven to be resilient.
“We didn’t start the game very well at all, Spurs put us under a lot of pressure, but we came into it and when you look at the stats they are quite even.
“We were quick on the break and if it hadn’t been for that world class save at the end from Kinsky, which was just amazing, we could have won it.
“I think some people thought we were on the beach and all that stuff, but we’ve got a togetherness in the team and they don’t want to lose a match. Simple as that.
“They are still up for it because they are all together, playing for each other, and you’ve seen that all the way through – even when we were struggling at the start of the season.
“They get 100% support from Farke who is potentially up there with manager of the season for keeping a newly-promoted side up like this and performing so well – especially in a league where we’re going to have a record points total for staying up.
“He deserves all the praise he gets and he will definitely be around next season.”
