Daniel Farke Warns Leeds United Still Have Work Ahead After Thrashing Burnley

The home triumph lifted Leeds to 43 points, a total that has always guaranteed top-flight status in past Premier League seasons, with no club ever dropping down at that mark.

That said, Farke is keen for his players to hold onto their drive for victories.

"Even if we should be mathematically safe before the last game day, then we would fight for each and every point," he said.

"And we want to finish as strong as possible in order to enjoy also the last game, to give our supporters more to cheer about."

Farke described the success against Burnley, featuring goals by Anton Stach, Noah Okafor, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin, as a huge morale lifter.

"The mentality and the work ethic and the unity and the spirit in the dressing room of these lads is really second to none, and I'm just proud of what they deliver at the moment," said Farke.

"I said before the game, 12 points to fight for, but now we have the first three under our belt, we also want to win the following nine."

The German midfielder Stach got the game underway in the eighth minute via a low strike from afar, picking up particular acclaim from his boss.

"He always delivers unbelievable workloads in terms of covering distance, delivers top set pieces, delivers goals, he delivers assists," Farke said of his 27-year-old compatriot.

"Top mentality, strong in the duels ... I think he plays an outstanding season and he deserves all the praise and is in the spotlight. Definitely one of our key players and one of our best players on this level."
