Daniel Farke is crafting his own history at Leeds United. Does he get enough credit? Leeds United are closing in on another season in the Premier League so does this end the debate on Daniel Farke's future?

⚪ Eight points clear of 18th.
⚪ Onto 39 points with five to play.
⚪ First FA Cup semi (may get better) in 39 years.
⚪ A first league win at Old Trafford for 45 years.

Contract expires in 2027. Farke's representatives and Leeds have been happy to push back any talks until the season finishes. #lufc

DF: "Willy always important with his spark. At his best when we have lots of possession. When we're under big pressure, it could be tricky for him. Top-class human being. Can't play all of them. Noah in a good moment. Brenden unbelievable workload on the other side." #lufc

DF: "In a normal season, 39 are enough, but this is a special season. Tottenham trying to chase us. Nottingham, in Europe and heavily invested, chasing us. Still have to play West Ham and Tottenham. Nothing is done yet. Fantastic position, but still need one or more points. Stay focused." #lufc

DF: "Top-class save from Darlow. One or two nervy moments in the second half. Massive step forward. Crucial win. Mentality to deliver under pressure. Reaching 39 points is amazing." #lufc

DF: "Always felt like we had to be switched on. Fully deserved win. Dominated the statistics. I was nervous before because a game after Monday is always difficult. Big expectation. Wolves a good side. Decisive to be 2-0 up. Kept foot on the gas." #lufc

Leeds United 3 Wolves 0: Farke’s dream week, Okafor on fire, and Justin’s acrobatic opener Leeds took early control against Wolves at Elland Road and never looked back — safety is now within sight

Back-to-back wins for the first time this season. Some week for Leeds United Football Club. #lufc www.nytimes.com/athletic/720...

Full time: 3-0. The result the club needed after Monday's showcase. Second half was a tough watch, but they got the job done. Nine points clear of Tottenham feels good, but the 39-point tally feels even more defining with five to play. #lufc

Krejci has treatment for a while. Seems to have a very stiff neck as he's substituted for Hwang. #lufc

Aaronson booked. Krejci left one on him, floored him and the American didn't like it. Jumped up and pushed Krejci in his back as he walked away. He then goes down holding the back of his head (?!). Minor melee, but fizzles out before the card is brandished. Farke pointing to his temple. #lufc

Rodrigo Gomes puts a good chance wide for Wolves. Leeds need to wake up. Created virtually nothing in this half. Wolves playing with freedom and speed. #lufc

Okafor off in the 67th minute for Gnonto. Standing ovation. #lufc

Big save from Darlow to add to this week's tally. Krejci gets a great glancing header on a corner and the goalkeeper has to react quickly with an instinctive throw of his right arm to keep it out.

Another warning Leeds need a third here. Scars of West Ham cut deep. #lufc

Half-time: 2-0. Wolves seeing more of the ball than expected, but Leeds have dominated from start to finish in that half. Tanaka and Ampadu picking up where they left off. Justin and Okafor impressing too. #lufc

Huge header from Justin. Armstrong had been put in behind. Justin caught and then flung himself at the bouncing ball. Cleanly headed it out for a corner. #lufc

Two goals in about 90 seconds! Toti gives the ball to Aaronson on halfway. Leeds break. Lovely, low, arcing cross to the far side for Elland Road's resident sprinter to bury on the charge. #lufc
