Leeds United managed a 1-1 draw against Brighton at the Amex Stadium on Saturday to continue their unbeaten start to the Premier League season.

The away side dominated the first half and went into the break 1-0 up via a Jayden Bogle goal. However, they missed some glorious opportunities to score more in the opening 45 minutes.

Brighton were the better side in the second half, and Luka Vuskovic’s headed equaliser came as the home side piled the pressure on Leeds after the break.

Leeds have made a solid start this season and are eighth in the Premier League table after three games. However, it seems a few Whites fans are not happy with the way the away side squandered a win on Saturday.

Jason Cundy clashes with Leeds fan over Daniel Farke live on air

On Saturday’s edition of talkSPORT Sports Bar, Jason Cundy and Jamie O’Hara reviewed the day’s results while taking calls from supporters of clubs across the country.

A Leeds supporter called the show to vent his frustration at the Whites’ failure to hold on for a win at Brighton. In a surprising twist, he even called for Daniel Farke to be sacked, claiming the German has taken the team as far as he can.

Jason Cundy was left shocked by the suggestion and insisted that Brighton are a good team who were going to come out stronger in the second half.

He insisted that the Leeds fan is absolutely crazy in suggesting that the manager should get sacked after his team managed a solid draw away from home.

Cundy responded to the Leeds fans and said: “These football fans are nuts. What are you on about?

“Leeds were excellent in the first half, but they couldn’t score the next goal and couldn’t take the game away from Brighton.

“Brighton are the home team, and they are a damn good side; they weren’t going to play the same way in the second half.

“What you have got to accept is that Brighton were going to be better in the second half, and you had a really good first half but didn’t really score that second goal.

“Now you want him sacked?

“It wasn’t a capitulation.

“What are you on, mate? Where is the balance of this conversation?

“You are nuts; you are crazy.

“You want Daniel Farke sacked; you have not lost a Premier League game this season; you are sitting eighth.”

A large majority of Leeds fans back Farke

Daniel Farke did an excellent job of changing his tactics and reviving Leeds’ fortunes last season as they comfortably secured Premier League survival.

Leeds are looking resilient as ever this term as well, and remain one of the hardest teams to beat in the Premier League, even on days when they are not at their best.

The majority of Leeds fans recognise the job Farke has done at Elland Road, particularly given the limited budget he has worked with compared to many of the teams around them in the league.
