Hannibal Mejbri has been charged with misconduct by The FA after he was accused of spitting at Leeds United fans last month. #lufc www.nytimes.com/athletic/673...

Leeds United's home match with Crystal Palace has been moved from 2pm on Sunday, December 21 to 8pm on Saturday, December 20. This is due to fixture congestion for the visitors. Leeds more than happy to accommodate it for better matchday revenues and atmosphere under the lights. #lufc

This is far from the first time Daniel Farke has called the Leeds United fanbase emotional. The messaging, and his intention, are the same, but the circumstances are very different. #lufc

DF: "I don't think they're mentally struggling. If the outside world is panicking and mentally struggling after everything is a bit closer, we can't influence it. We are quite calm within the group. We don't need a mental break right now." #lufc

DF: "Difficult run with three away games in four. Never in the bottom three, still on a one-point-per-game average." Says Gnonto was an option off the bench, but they felt the extra two weeks of training after today would be better than risking him today after so long out, including a surgery #lufc

DF: "The fanbase is very, very emotional. Everyone doubts us after every loss. Everyone has the right to be critical because we have conceded too many goals in the last two games. We could have made our lives easier, for sure. I didn't expect a smooth, easy ride this season." #lufc

Farke very angry with the referee before the second goal. Felt Stach should have been given a foul not penalised for one, which Forest eventually scored from. Does though criticise the defending of the cross for the goal. #lufc

DF: "Quite normal you're angry after a loss. Small details important. A few details not good enough today. Really good start. Great finish from Nmecha. Gave this away so cheaply. Should have been more on it in the duels." #lufc

Hearing from Sean Dyche first. #lufc

Full-time. Forest 3-1 Leeds. Another afternoon of one-way traffic on the road. Whatever your perspective on the performances, the points-per-game and the reality of being a newly-promoted team, it's only getting harder between now and 2026. #lufc

Goal. 3-1. Long way back for Leeds now. #lufc

Ampadu has a long debate with the referee, but it's a clear penalty. Anderson to take. #lufc

Hutchinson gets goal side of Harrison as he drives in off the right. Winger clips his heels and he goes down for a penalty. #lufc

Bijol and Gudmundsson off for Struijk and Harrison in the 82nd minute. #lufc

Superb save from Sels to deny James from 20 yards. Was bending into the corner. Save rolled to Gudmundsson for a low drive, but an offside Bogle diverted it wide of goal. #lufc

Longstaff off for Piroe, Nmecha off for Calvert-Lewin and Aaronson off for James in the 74th minute. #lufc

Longstaff in the book for a foul on Ndoye as Forest broke. Hosts entirely in the ascendancy after that second goal. Leeds looking more and more ragged. Piroe and James coming on. #lufc

Goal Forest. Gibbs-White. Hutchinson beats Gudmundsson too easily as he drives onto his left foot on the right flank. Crosses for the far post and the home skipper ghosts in to glance home. #lufc

Forest cut through Leeds quickly. Ndoye and Jesus combine near halfway to release the former. Rodon competes with him, nearly sends him over in the box, but the cutback is made and Bogle is there to block Jesus's effort. #lufc

No changes at the break from Farke. #lufc

Forest have created far more than Leeds, even if the possession has been 50-50, they just haven't had the quality or final ball to punish United. Leeds scored with their only attempt of the half. They are looking fairly solid in their defensive shape. #lufc

Dreadful attempt by Longstaff to take a short free-kick gives the ball straight to Ndoye, but he recovers with a big tackle. #lufc

Murillo booked for taking out Okafor as he broke away from a Forest corner. #lufc

Sangare booked for clipping Gudmundsson's heels. #lufc

Leeds with a couple of minutes of unbroken possession and then Okafor passes it directly to Gibbs-White in the away half. Forest counter, Farke fumes and Okafor chases. Gibbs-White seemed to spoon the ball away, but Okafor collided with him to make amends and gave away a free kick. #lufc

Perri looking a touch shaky. Forest go direct and Ndoye gets in behind for a rasping shot at goal from a tight angle. Perri gets behind it, but fumbles before properly picking it up. #lufc

Forest goal. Sangare immediately responds. Ndoye crosses low, Perri gets out to flap a hand at it that only pushes it out to an unmarked Sangare to drive home. #lufc

Huge goal for Leeds. Stach gets up to win a 50-50 aerial duel near halfway. Then Nmecha wins one, uses his strength, ball bounces around until Okafor gets a hold of it. Drives inside. Passes to Aaronson, who perfectly guides the ball into Nmecha on the overlap. Excellent finish. #lufc

NMECHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! #lufc

Stach goes down holding his face in the Forest half after a collision. Play goes on. Gibbs-White goes down in the Leeds half holding his face. The referee blows to stop play. #lufc

Perri forced into a save inside two minutes. Gibbs-White does really well to chop inside Longstaff's attention and get a low, bouncing shot off. Goalkeeper palms away well. #lufc

Underway. Leeds starting with the away end behind Perri's goal. #lufc

The teams are out at the City Ground. #lufc

DF: "Performances (away aside from Brighton), yes (happy). Arsenal aside, could have had points in the others. Overall, we are on a good path, but this does not lead to complacency. We speak about what we can improve." #lufc

DF: "Gameday 11 and it's the seventh time I am asked if it's must-win. Every game is an opportunity for a newly-promoted team. No game can be must-win for a newly-promoted team. We need nine wins or one point per game this season." #lufc

DF: "Calvert-Lewin had an adductor strain after Saturday. Will be a late call. Not in team training yet. Few more days. Little question mark on Bornauw, hit on his MCL in training. Gnonto team training for two weeks, see him growing." #lufc

Hearing from Daniel Farke at Thorp Arch. #lufc

It's nearly a year since Noah Okafor last played for Switzerland. He doesn't expect selection, just a phone call that acknowledges his existence or tells him how he gets back in. He spoke to me about tensions with the Swiss boss across a period which has left him sad and confused. #lufc

Leeds United and their away goals problem. #lufc

Saturday's arguably just the second time Leeds United have been thoroughly outclassed this season. And yet, the spectre of what looms at the end of the month, means this piled the pressure onto the next two fixtures. #lufc www.nytimes.com/athletic/676...

Another miserable visit to East Sussex and Daniel Farke offering no excuses after this defeat. #lufc www.nytimes.com/athletic/675...

Anything please you today? DF: "Reaction after 10 minutes. Dominating possession in an away game for periods. How we started the second half. When you are 3-0 down, sometimes you can concede more goals, but it was important to show togetherness at that point." #lufc

DF: "We were 1-0 down, wanted to take more risks and play with a more traditional 10 like last season, which allows more attacks for the opponent. Brenden can play central role, but this lacks physicality in the middle." #lufc

DF: "In several away games, at Fulham and Wolves, we created good xG. Not today. First time in a long time, we have not created much xG. Not good enough, but across 10 games, sometimes games like this come around for a newly-promoted team. Arsenal one, this is the second." #lufc

DF: "Tried to get a foot back in the door with Nmecha and Stach. Reaction good in last moments, but poor start was crucial and cheap goals in the second half." #lufc

DF: "We did not start well. They scored out of this. Brighton wants to invite you to open the block and if you are 1-0 down it's difficult. I quite liked how we handled it, we were way better. Free kicks and corners, delivery not great though. Missed final passes. Started second half well." #lufc

DF: "We don't have to over-analyse the game. They were the better side and deserved to win. Overall, if you look at the game, it was quite equal on possession and corners, but they created way more and were more clinical." #lufc

Fabian Hurzeler thinks they started well, showed intensity, bravery. Had moments of suffering, but stayed together. Scored in the right moments. Leeds have good physicality and had to be ready for that. #lufc

Full time: Brighton 3-0 Leeds. Ten without a win down here and eight on the bounce without a goal. Another dire display to add to the tally. Nowhere near the hosts, though the timing of their second goal did feel critical. #lufc

Some debate between Bogle and the staff about his withdrawal. Don't think he understood why he was taken off. #lufc
