"Daniel Farke wasn't universally popular with Leeds fans even when they got promoted, and he's under a lot of pressure right now, Stelling explained. The manner of their defeat at Brighton has left a lot of Leeds fans questioning him. And I just wonder whether Steven Gerrard is maybe holding fire for something like that, although I'm not sure whether an ex-Liverpool man can go and manage Leeds."
"Gerrard has previously been linked with a return to English football. His name has surfaced in several managerial discussions over the past year, particularly after a mixed spell with Aston Villa. While Gerrard's tenure at Villa Park ended in disappointment, his earlier success at Rangers, where he won the Scottish Premiership title in 2021 and halted Celtic's dominance, has kept his reputation strong in certain circles."
Daniel Farke faces mounting pressure after Leeds United's 3-0 Premier League defeat to Brighton. Leeds occupy 16th place, four points above the relegation zone. A string of disappointing performances has intensified fan criticism and raised doubts about Farke's future at Elland Road. Steven Gerrard has emerged as a possible managerial candidate, having been linked with a return to English football following a mixed spell at Aston Villa and previous success at Rangers. Questions persist about whether a former Liverpool figure would take the Leeds job. Leeds confront a daunting fixture list including Nottingham Forest away, Aston Villa, Manchester City, Chelsea and Liverpool.
