Leeds boss Daniel Farke, speaking to Match of the Day: "Very well done. No doubt it was fully deserved. A fantastic first half. It was important to protect the clean sheet. Overall, I am very proud of my lads because, after such a historical win at Old Trafford, we made it look relatively easy and, for that, a big compliment to my players.
"It was important to calm the nerves of the stadium down because expectations were high after such a big win. Sometimes the stadium can get nervous and we started strong."
On a first back-to-back win in the Premier League: "It was a point we wanted to prove. We have won games but not back-to-back officially in the Premier League. Back-to-back wins are important for climbing up the table and achieving your goals."
On if he thinks his team are safe from relegation: "I expect that the other teams will also win points. It is good that we edge closer to the points we need to achieve our goals. I still think we need to stay with foot on the gas and keep going because there are strong teams behind us that will try and chase us down."
On how much he is enjoying his job: "If you want to be manager of Leeds you have to be ready for lots of pressure, lots of expectation and lots of noise. You need to stay calm and always focus on the moment when you are successful, always be switched on because there is some fear around the corner.
"You need to make sure you are always there with good leadership and lead the group and supporters. For that, I can't allow myself to be over-confident. Perhaps in the summer break, but now I am focused on the here and now. It's definitely a good feeling."
Leeds goalscorer James Justin, speaking to Sky Sports on whether this feels like a defining week: "Yeah, definitely. It's crunch time. We put two good wins back-to-back for the first time this season. What a time to do it. It gives us a bit of a buffer and it's looking good."
On the fast start: "We knew we couldn't wait for the crowd to pick us up, we had to pick the crowd up. After the win the other night, we knew the expectation was to come back home and win again. We had to put our foot on the gas from minute one.

On his acrobatic goal: "When the ball was in the air I just thought, 'Why not?' I had no idea where it was going, but luckily, it went in, so I'm really happy."
On whether it feels like this is enough for safety: "It's not over until it's over. We're on a good points total, but until we are mathematically safe we will still work hard until the end."
