Farke and Warne are at the moment under different sorts of pressure ahead of Leeds United clash against Derby County at Elland Road.
Farke who ensured Leeds United was a club in the English premiership just last season, is under pressure to do it again, after being dealt a few blows, such as the recent 1-0 loss to Blackburn Rovers. That is true, so far, Leeds occupy the third spot in the Championship, though doubts arise as to how effective Farke can be in managing the team through cagey fixtures.
For his part, Warne has witnessed Derby’s slow build as a team that has been on a steady climb since promotion; nonetheless, a string of losses has begun to set in anxiety amongst the Rams’ fan base. Despite disregarding recent rumours regarding Farke’s position, Warne admits Elland Road as a hostile arena, and risks of his own as several first-team players miss the next match.
And as these two managers step on to the dressing room to prepare their sides for what would be a mouth- watering encounter, both know full well the pressures and the expectations that this League brings along with the high competitive nature of the Championship season.
