Morning Leeds-in for 30 September 2017: Pontus Jansson says that Leeds need to be “prepared for a war”

Pontus Jansson is not taking this Yorkshire derby with Sheffield Wednesday lightly.

Jansson was at the press conference ahead of the derby match to be held this weekend, and he said that the team needs to “go out like animals” and that the team needed be be “prepared for a war.” A little melodramatic, for sure, but hey, hype up the match, why not. Leeds have a good chance to move further ahead of Sheffield Wednesday and put their promotion rivals in a very bad spot after Wednesday’s poor week.

Anyway, on with the links.
