"We played very well in Birmingham [beating Aston Villa 2-1], and I think the whole idea was to keep the same first XI. But I'm lucky also on the bench I have good players. We have to forget the last two wins. We have to keep just the same spirit, the same style of play, because we need to play football if we want another win tonight. And to be positive, but we can't forget what the situation was two weeks ago."
"He's asked if the fact Leeds are now safe might make his team's job a little easier: Nothing changes, especially in the Premier League. You see Burnley against Villa yesterday all games are very tough. To win we have to play our best, to fight, to run, to work, but to play according to our qualities."
"For sure, the first 10 minutes we have to start strong to [keep] the fans with us. But we have to play 90 minutes and extra time, because we are not in a condition to think we can close the game inside 90 minutes."
"Hello world! Yesterday, as a result of Arsenal's victory over West Ham, Leeds United secured another season of top-flight football. Their battle against relegation is over. And today, freed from the stress of uncertainty as well as the drive of desperation, they visit one of now just two clubs still vying to avoid the drop."
Roberto De Zerbi said the team played well in Birmingham with a 2-1 win over Aston Villa and aimed to keep the same first XI, while also benefiting from strong options on the bench. He said the team must forget the last two wins and maintain the same spirit and style of play to secure another victory. He added that Leeds being safe does not change anything, because Premier League matches remain tough, including Burnley’s game against Villa. He emphasized fighting, running, working, and playing according to the team’s qualities, starting strongly for the first 10 minutes while sustaining performance for the full 90 minutes and extra time.
