table.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why you get the ongoing speculation that maybe Leeds could be next to look for a change in manager as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt does seem that the Leeds hierarchy are looking to keep faith with Daniel Farke and they will give him a run of games to turn around Leeds\u2019 fortunes. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey\u2019ve got tough fixtures coming up, with Villa, Man City, Chelsea and Liverpool in their next games with a worrying time from now up until Christmas.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" loading=\"lazy\"

might be forced and they might be looking to make a change in the managerial department.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut for now, it does seem that they are sticking by Daniel Farke.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After Nottingham Forest, West Ham and Wolves all opted to change their managers, there is now growing pressure on Leeds to follow suit.<\/p>\n<p>Leeds United eye Marco Rose as potential Farke
