Leeds United: Evans hails striker Erwin as Whites win

Steve put the game on and it was a good exercise.

“His work rate has been phenomenal in recent days and in recent games, and we had to look after him a little bit”.

There may soon be a change in ownership with Massimo Cellino finally set to depart Elland Road, so Evans knows that there could be a change in the dugout if the new owner already has somebody in mind to take over the first-team.

“You’re never confident you’ll get time, whether it’s at Leeds United or the manager of any club”, he said on Sky Sports News headquarters.

Evans says he was brought into Elland Road to make sure Leeds do not get relegated this season and he has no doubt that with him at the helm the Whites will not be dragged into trouble.

“And I didn’t like him last season when he came on and changed the game against Rotherham”.

You talk about consistency and with Silvestri we’ve seen the good and the bad, but with Ross Turnbull still out injured, we still need someone strong enough to be able to come in and give him that competition that he needs to keep him sharp.

Former Leeds United striker Noel Whelan has claimed that Steve Evans is proving to be a better option for the club than fellow rumoured target David Moyes. He’s one of these players that has scored goals everywhere he has been whether it’s been Rangers or whatever and he can be a handful on his day.

“He’ll be back over the weekend and he’ll play for the Under-21s on Monday because we want to get him fitter”.

“To sign good players there’s a lot of things that have to be ticked”. Can he get them organised? Can he get out of them what he wants?

At the moment he’s doing all those three things.

“He lost his confidence, and we’ve been working hard to raise that with the goalkeeping coach, and Marco more than anyone deserves enormous credit”.
