Leeds United manager Neil Redfearn feels that the club's upcoming opponents are unsure what they will come up against when they play the Whites. But he is convinced weekend opponents Blackburn Rovers will soon know the size of the Elland Road outfit.
Redfearn is looking for his men to build on a 3-1 win over Blackpool before the international break, but face a step up in quality when they lock horns with seventh placed Rovers.
Redfearn thinks that Blackburn will not quite know what Leeds will turn up on the pitch, but off it, they should be under no illusions about the size of the club they are facing.
"I think they're not sure about us", he told a press conference today.

"I think they realise that on our day we're a decent side.
"What comes with the name Leeds United…when Leeds United come to town it's a big deal. All those supporters turning up at Blackburn – they'll know it's a big deal", the former academy chief continued.
"And these players carry that tag. Slowly but surely we're getting into a position when we're carrying that tag well."
