"Leeds aren't ready to pull the plug. From what I'm hearing, they're now not where they'd hope to be, but they're okay with where they are at the moment. It wasn't a great performance at Forest, and the club are aware of that, but they're not panicking. Of course, it piles the pressure on when you have a manager like Brendan Rodgers available. But nothing has changed, and nothing is imminent."
"Rodgers has done well in the Premier League in the past, with him having managed the likes of Liverpool, Leicester and Swansea. However, he does not have much experience of being involved in relegation battles, so there could be some doubt as to whether he would be the most suitable candidate to replace Farke, where he to be sacked."
Leeds have lost four of five matches and fallen to 16th in the Premier League, one point above the relegation zone. Sunderland's strong form has increased pressure on manager Daniel Farke to keep Leeds in the division. Several candidates, including Brendan Rodgers, have been linked as potential replacements. Club sources indicate Leeds are not ready to dismiss Farke immediately and are not panicking after the Forest defeat, with an expectation he will remain in charge for at least a few weeks. Rodgers has Premier League managerial experience with Liverpool, Leicester and Swansea but limited exposure to relegation battles.
