We will live or die on Sunday, says Leeds United manager Sam Allardyce
The HinduThe final Premier League game is a do-or-die situation for relegation-threatened Leeds United, manager Sam Allardyce said on Friday as his side bids to retain its top-flight status. I hope we can go one step further and win the game.” The veteran coach, who was brought in at Leeds earlier this month with just four games left, said Scottish greats Eddie Gray, Gary McAllister and Gordon Strachan visited the Leeds players ahead of the high-stakes encounter. “It’s about how important Leeds is and what it meant to them - the history of the football club and the fact they had very successful times here,” Allardyce said. A different voice speaking about what they did at this football club and how much they love the club is really important.” Allardyce said the side “will be happy to gamble on anyone’s fitness”, adding that Rodrigo Moreno has trained while fellow forward Patrick Bamford will be assessed.
