Leeds United boss Daniel Farke has been speaking to the media before Sunday's FA Cup game against Birmingham City at St Andrew's (kick-off 12:00 GMT).
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
- Leeds boss Daniel Farke confirmed "achieving survival is a priority" for his side and they "will not risk any player who has any doubts" for their fourth round tie against Birmingham City.
- Anton Stach and Pascal Struijk will not make a return to the matchday squad as both players are yet to fully complete their rehab. Although striker Dominic Calvert-Lewin "is back" after suffering from an illness, said Farke.
- Although the league is the "priority" for the west Yorkshire side, Farke said "we will not take any risks" when facing Birmingham, who sit one point outside the play-off positions in the Championship. Farke added: "It is not like we want to go out of this cup on purpose. I am a big believer in cup competitions."
- On Sunday's FA Cup opponents, Farke said: "I like the group of players, real quality players, and they definitely have a chance [of being promoted]." City have not lost in any competition since New Year's Day - an unbeaten run of eight games - and Farke believes "the club has lots of potential" as they aim to be promoted back to the Premier League.
- Farke also gave his thoughts on the sacking of Premier League managers Thomas Frank and Sean Dyche: "Especially when you have a proven manager like Thomas, who has done so well for Brentford, he is not just a good coach, but he is a great human being. For Sean Dyche, a proven record in the fight against relegation. The outside feeling is he gave stability after a crazy start for Nottingham."
