Leeds United head coach Paul Heckingbottom has little doubt what he will be working heavily on with his players over the international break.
Heckingbottom failed to improve on his one win in charge of Leeds on Saturday afternoon when the Whites went down to a 2-1 defeat at home against Sheffield Wednesday.
The Whites went 1-0 down, but did manage to claw their way back to 1-1, before then conceding in stoppage time at the end of the game to leave the pitch empty handed.
Heckingbottom now has time to work with his players as an international break has kicked in, though several of his charges will be heading off to link up with their respective national teams.
And the head coach knows what he will work on during the break.

"That mentality [is what we’re going to work on] to stop goals going in. It has to be", Heckingbottom told a press conference.
"It makes the game so much easier.
"People can talk about styles of football, whatever it may be, but if you're going behind in games it makes it really difficult.
"Look at the percentages of wins when you go in front – it's vital", he added.
Heckingbottom has won only one of his eight games in charge of Leeds and will be hoping he can dramatically improve his record over the Whites' final eight games of the season, as he looks to get the fans on side ahead of next term.
The head coach put pen to paper to an 18-month contract with Leeds when he joined from Barnsley.
