Farke explains why Leeds star was taken off at half-time in draw with BournemouthDaniel Farke explained that Jayden Bogle was taken off at half time of Leeds’ 2-2 draw with Bournemouth partly because of taking a hit to his foot.Sean Longstaff struck a last-minute equaliser to give Leeds a point at the Vitality Stadium, taking his side to 40 points in the Premier League.AdvertisementFarke also took Jaka Bijol and Noah Okafor off just after the hour mark and explaining his changes, the Leeds boss said: “We decided to change our base formation to a back four.“We were getting ready for the change when they scored and we thought one minute about doing something different after the goal but we stuck to the same idea.“Thank God Willy had influence with the goal. It was difficult to match Bournemouth, there are many reasons why they’re 13 unbeaten. We could have been a bit more aware when we conceded the second. To score in the 97th minute shows the belief is second to none. I have a great bunch of lads who never give up. I also believe in them.”Farke is confident Leeds have done enough to stay up having reached 40 points with four games remaining.Advertisement“I’m confident, I’m experienced and long enough in this business that we’ll just celebrate when it’s mathematically done,” he said.“We’re on 40, seven unbeaten and why should we lose all the last games? It’s a priceless point, the manner, we’ve won with fantastic football at times at Old Trafford, but today was a point of mentality, fight, belief, coming back from setbacks.“They were 13 unbeaten, Iraola is leaving, the whole stadium wanted the win and they played very emotional. I was a bit reminded of our first game day, we were the better side at home and conceded the last-second equaliser. It was a bit like this.“Many compliments to Bournemouth but the same to my players, I’m pretty proud of the performance. It puts us in a pretty good position.”
