Leeds United boss Thomas Christiansen has issued a message to the Whites faithful following a fourth loss in five league games for the club. 

Christiansen's men were put to the sword by a struggling Reading side at Elland Road, missing a late penalty through Pablo Hernandez and going down 1-0.




The defeat was another morale-sapping loss for Leeds, whose form has turned around completely from their heady early days at the start of the campaign.

The onus is now on Christiansen to change Leeds' fortunes, starting with a trip to Bristol City and the Whites boss has urged fans and players to stand together.
 

 

Bad result today, but I believe in my players and we will bounce back. Thank you for your support, time to stand together #pride #MOT #lufc

"Thank you for your support, time to stand together", he added.

Leeds face a stiff task in tackling Bristol City in their next match, with the Robins having now gone 12 games unbeaten in all competitions, a run which includes wins over Premier League sides Watford and Stoke City in the EFL Cup.
