Leeds United made it back-to-back wins in the Championship following an impressive 3-0 victory over Coventry City on Saturday.

The result leaves them just two points off the summit of the division before a trip to Norwich City on Tuesday evening (19:45 BST).

In the latest episode of BBC Radio Leeds’ Don’t Go To Bed Just Yet podcast, Jonny Buchan discussed the mentality shift he hopes to see in the squad for this season’s promotion push.

“Last year we were amazing but because of the way the league was, it got away from us, they left it too late to make it back up there,” he said. “I’m hoping this time round it could be the other way.

“They have the players there who were there last season to still be a part of that to say right, let’s be the runaway ones this time. Let us be the Leicester, the team that everyone has to chase. If they catch us, fair play to them, but let’s go and let’s keep that momentum going.

“I wonder whether that’s what the challenge has been within.”
