Nottingham Forest v Brighton (Sun, 14: 05 GMT) Brighton & Hove Albion First up on today's news conference front we had Fabian Hurzeler who was speaking about summer transfer rumours potentially impacting the form of Carlos Baleba: "We are now four months into the season, we can't speak about these rumours anymore. It's about being a Brighton player, it's about performing here and getting him back to his best level. "Avoid the noise, avoid all the rumours, and focus on things you can influence and the things you do best. That's football. " Click 'Get Involved' to have your say I think when looking at the odds for next Leeds manager if Farke is sacked anytime soon. I’d say the sensible decision would be to bring in Brendan Rodgers. A lot will disagree here but he’s a proven premier league manager. I’d be the ideal candidate for the job. James, Normanton You've heard from Daniel Farke now but feel free to keep sending in your messages with regard to his future as Leeds United boss. Six more to come your way including two others that have already happened! We'll get to them as soon as we can. Ben Ramsdale BBC Sport Daniel Farke is still talking but we're very much aware of the time and the fact we have six other news conferences to cram in. You can head to our Leeds United habit page for further updates from the Leeds boss a little later on. We've got loads more reaction from Liverpool to come too and a load of your texts to get through. Here's quick note with all the other news conferences to come your way, though. .. Man City v Leeds (Sat 15: 00 GMT) Leeds United Leeds manager Daniel Farke on how this week will define his career: "Not at all. I'm not focused on myself and outside noise. I quite like that outside noise is on the manager and not the players. I'm just fully focused on the team. " Click 'Get Involved' to have your say It is ridiculous the short space of time a manager gets nowadays. If they are on a contract the duration of it should be honoured. I know it's all about results but some of the managers don't even get any time to bring in their own signings. John, Glasgow Some managers aren't given time to impose their style at a club. Some aren't allowed time to bring in players or even have a say what players come into a club. Just told that they are to use them. So clubs need to access what they want. Leigh, Dronfield' Man City v Leeds (Sat, 15: 00 GMT) Leeds United Leeds United boss Daniel Farke on dropping into the relegation zone: "We are fully concentrated. We were full prepared for such a situation that this would happen. "There is always outside noise even after our best season in history last season. We full expected this would happen this season. "The goal at the start of the season was to finish 17th or above. To finish 17th would be a great success because no other team in the last promoted sides has had the chance to stay in this league. "I didn't expect it to be an easy ride. " Click 'Get Involved' to have your say Stick with Farke. Give him the whole season. Promising signs are there Keep the Faith MOT. Matt, Leeds Man City v Leeds (Sat, 15: 00 GMT) Leeds United Leeds United boss Daniel Farke on availability for the game against Man City: "Overall, many players are training. Anton Stach will definitely miss the Man City game due to the concussion protocol. If everything works, he will be allowed to return to training Sunday. "Sadly, Sean Longstaff will miss the game, he is out with a calf injury. He is expected to be out 4-6 weeks, so we will miss him for a while. It's of course not ideal. "Sebastien Bornauw is a doubt, he has some MCL problems. He missed training yesterday and today, it will be a late call about his availability. " Click 'Get Involved' to have your say Farke should've gone after the abysmal play off final. How the board and any fans thought he could succeed this season is beyond me. Poor manager, with an horrendous premier league record. Will, Leeds Click 'Get Involved' to have your say I'm a Liverpool fan. My husband and son are Leeds fans. They've never been enamored with Farke and want him gone.

I think Slot deserves more time. I am interested in how we will fare when Salah goes to Afcon as he's been off form for a while now. Adele, Leeds Man City v Leeds (Sat, 15: 00 GMT) Leeds United Daniel Farke has arrived for his news conference and has begun by delivering some tough team news. Midfielder Sean Longstaff will be out for around four to six weeks with a calf injury he picked up in the 2-1 defeat by Aston Villa. We'll bring you full quotes from his news conference, along with any chatter about his future, once we get it. .. Man City v Leeds (Sat, 15: 00 GMT) Leeds United After a promising start to the season taking seven points from their first five games, Leeds' form has taken a big dip in recent weeks. They've lost four of their last five league games, their only points coming in a 2-1 home win over West Ham. If any Leeds fans were hoping for an easier run of fixtures to help turn their season around, they'd be bitterly disappointed looking at the clubs next three fixtures. Daniel Farke's side have Man City away, Chelsea at home, followed by Liverpool at home in their next three outings. Currently sitting 18th and inside the relegation zone, three defeats in those games would put the club in a very difficult spot heading into a busy festive period of football - but is Farke the man to get this side out of trouble? Click 'Get Involved' to have your say Let's just be clear why Leeds are in the mess they are. Sure, a lot of it is to do with Farke's selection and in-game management but the recruitment in the summer simply wasn't good enough. That's on the board Greg Farke replacement may well get us fitter and better defensively. However quality up front and lack of goals will be our down fall. Fear as always with relegation how it will impact the club financially. Pick up some points prior to Christmas and good January transfers only hope. Jim Unfortunately Daniel Farke's time is nearly up, he has no proven track record in the Premier League. Ian Man City v Leeds (Sat, 15: 00 GMT) Leeds United Leeds defender Gabriel Gudmundsson speaking to BBC Radio Leeds on their difficult run of form: "We are all behind everyone in the club. We are working to come through. "We know we have a plan each game to play with, and it's football; things happen. We need to adapt to certain games depending on which team you're playing and their qualities. We have to accept sometimes that we are losing, and when we are winning, we are winning. "When we are playing at home, we feel very good - I think everyone can see that as well. But when we are playing away, we need to step up. The performances are there, but we just need to make sure we get the points. "It's such a good group of players. We are so close to each other and want to help each other all the time. We are not focusing on [poor results] too much. We know we have a big game ahead, and we are going to help each other. "It's only November and nothing is going to be decided here. We are all sticking together and working hard. We know what we can do, we have a good group - and we will figure this out. " Ben Ramsdale BBC Sport The duality of a man. .. We'll keep the Liverpool and Arne Slot chatter going but we've also got a Daniel Farke news conference coming your way in the next 10 minutes or so. Lots to digest this afternoon so we'll keep it a bit flexible with your opinions on Slot, Farke and any other manager welcome! Inbox is currently overflowing so we'll get through as many as we can. Click 'Get Involved' to have your say The players have downed tools, it’s as clear as day and Slot has rode the coattails of Klopp’s tactics until the wheels fell off, it’s time to go! Daniel, Belfast The team are breaking records from over 70 years ago by how horrific their form is. I know he won the title last season, but I cannot see a solution right now, and I cannot see Slot solving this crisis. He has to go. Liam, London Get Slot out NOW! 5 points off 2nd 1 point off UCL top 8. Season is still salvageable. Bring in Stevie G till the end of season then reassess. Rick, Toxteth Click 'Get Involved' to have your say Media constantly asking if managers should go are the problem. No one is asking that except the media.

He brought us number 20 and his name is Arne Slot.

YNWA. David, Bristol Liverpool 1-4 PSV Liverpool Liverpool manager Arne Slot was asked if he feels is job is under threat: "I am feeling safe, I am OK, I have got a lot of support from above. "It would be nice to turn it around and get a victory of course but if you are working as a coach and not doing well then it is normal that questions are asked. "I am OK with my position. It is not the first time I've been in a difficult position but it is about time that we turned it around. "In the normal conversations we have I feel the trust. But I haven't spoken to them after this game yet so let's see.
