Leeds United have secured another season in the Premier League as they are guaranteed to finish above the drop zone with three games to play.

Such is the achievement, some of the team at BBC Radio Leeds' Don't Go To Bed Just Yet podcast believe it's never been "as good as this".

Reflecting on how success is achieved, BBC Radio Leeds' Jonny Buchan, suggested how the club is being run is a key reason for their success.

"It's getting the right people in the right jobs and trusting them to do those jobs," Buchan said on the Don't Go To Bed Just Yet podcast.

"We questioned letting Adam Underwood [sporting director] have that huge summer [in 2025] that was such a key summer for the football club and he was inexperienced seemingly. But he's risen to that challenge.

"Daniel Farke's been questioned all along and he's risen to the challenge."

Commentator Adam Pope added: "It starts at the top and if it continues all the way through to the manager, to the captain and the chain of command and if they're all in sync, you've got a good chance [to succeed] if the plan is right in the first place. And they're delivering.

"The culture's good and we can genuinely say that - it's not just because of the current owners and because things are going pretty well.

"We've been around it so much, the fans as well, and I've never seen it as good and as solid as this."
