Page on Leeds men
Wales boss Rob Page has praised Daniel James and Ethan Ampadu after the nation's playoff win over Finland. The Dragons advanced to Tuesday's playoff final with Poland at home with the win, with Leeds man James scoring.
"The biggest selection headache I had tonight was at the top of the pitch. I knew that pace would hurt them," said Page. "People like DJ (Daniel James) coming off the bench, playing really well at club level and scoring goals. When you have players at club level playing well, they can add value and change the game for us.
"Ethan (Ampadu) on his 50th cap, I thought he was immense. Brennan was a constant threat. Brooksy with his finish. We knew exactly what we were going to get with Harry (Wilson) and Brooksy in the pockets."
Gnonto on Joseph
Leeds star Wilfried Gnonto has been praising youngster Mateo Joseph, who made his big breakthrough during the FA Cup clash with Chelsea recently after waiting patiently for an opportunity.
Speaking on the official Leeds United podcast, the Italian said: "He has been working hard for so long, honestly, sometimes it has been tough for him. He has always been there doing extra work – finishing, going to the gym. Now you can see the results on the pitch.”
