Liam Cooper calls for Leeds United action and sends message to fans before Everton clash
and live on Freeview channel 276
Leeds approached Saturday’s assignment at Brighton having amassed seven points from their first three games but Jesse Marsch’s side fell to a 1-0 defeat on the south coast as a six-game unbeaten run spanning back to the end of last season came to an end.
United, though, remain fifth in the very early Premier League table and Cooper has set his sights on using Tuesday night’s clash against third-bottom Everton as a new launchpad and highlighted the importance of the Elland Road crowd.

"We couldn’t get going in the first half, but you have to give credit to Brighton for that, as they are a good team.
"That game is gone now and we can’t dwell on it or be too downbeat.
"We’ve still had a decent start to the campaign which is what we wanted and we now have to start another sequence of positive results.
"Tonight we are aiming to pick up another three points.

"I’m sure it will be the same again this evening and hopefully we can send you all home happy with a win.”
