"Leeds United are reportedly eyeing candidates to replace the struggling Daniel Farke as manager, including former Tottenham and Nottingham Forest boss Ange Postecoglou. It's been a difficult start to the season for Leeds, with Farke unable to build on a superb season for his team last term when they hit 100 points to earn promotion from the Championship. Farke's record in the top flight is really poor, and this is now leading Leeds to consider Postecoglou as an option to replace him, according to talkSPORT."
"Daniel Farke's Premier League record is a worry, but is Ange Postecoglou the answer? As noted in talkSPORT's report, Farke has a points tally of just 0.61 per game as a top flight manager, the worst record of any coach to take charge of at least 50 games in the competition. Even if the German tactician has generally done well to get Leeds back into the Premier League, it doesn't necessarily mean he's the man to continue the job with them there."
"Still, most Leeds fans would probably feel that Postecoglou also surely looks like a risky appointment after a mixed spell at Spurs. The Australian tactician may have won the Europa League last season, but his Tottenham side also finished 17th in the Premier League, while he was also recently sacked after a very short spell in charge of Nottingham Forest."
Leeds United are exploring managerial replacements for Daniel Farke, including Ange Postecoglou and Brendan Rodgers. Farke earned promotion with 100 points but has a poor Premier League record of 0.61 points per game, the worst for any coach with at least 50 top-flight matches. Leeds sit 18th after 12 matches with three wins, two draws and seven defeats. Postecoglou has mixed recent results: he won the Europa League with Tottenham but oversaw a 17th-place league finish and endured a brief, unsuccessful eight-game spell at Nottingham Forest. Rodgers is viewed as a safer, experienced option.
