Daniel Farke faces the media today in his Southampton pre-match press conference with Leeds United and here are some of the topics he may be faced with at Thorp Arch

At his pre-game news conference on Thursday afternoon, Daniel Farke addressed the media. Before Saturday’s game against Southampton, the manager of Leeds United will field questions from the media at Thorp Arch on television, radio, print, and internet platforms. The boss will talk on a number of important subjects today at the training site, some of which are listed below.

When Farke addresses the media this afternoon, questions concerning injuries will be raised as usual. Wilfried Gnonto and Djed Spence have both been declared out until at least until the international break, so we don’t anticipate hearing much about them.

He may sit on the bench for the Saints if he is deemed fit enough following a week of disrupted practice. It’s unclear how Bamford will be utilized or where he fits into the current Whites system, but Farke will be questioned about his standing.

. A status report on Junior Firpo, who has not yet returned to training, would be helpful.

Firpo may have his work cut out for him if he wants to earn a spot in Farke’s starting lineup, but the manager will undoubtedly be eager to see the Dominican get back to full strength and add yet another layer of depth.

Stuart Dallas, though, is close to making a comeback after starting training again for the first time since breaking his femur 16 months ago. Junior Firpo, who has not yet returned to training, also likely needs an update.

Farke will undoubtedly be eager to see Firpo get back to full fitness and provide yet another layer of depth, so the Dominican may have his job cut out for him in trying to earn a spot in the starting XI.

He may sit on the bench for the Saints if he is deemed fit enough following a week of disrupted practice. It’s unclear how Bamford will be utilized or where he fits into the current Whites system, but Farke will be questioned about his standing.
