In Episode 28 of Unfiltered Football, we start with a huge moment in Leeds United’s season — their FA Cup victory, which sees them progress to Wembley for the semi-finals.

We break down what this means for the club, not just in terms of the competition itself, but the wider impact on confidence, belief, and momentum. How important can this moment be for the players? And how can Leeds use this boost to push on in the Premier League and strengthen their chances of survival?

Within the performance, we take a closer look at Ao Tanaka and ask whether he has now done enough to earn a consistent starting role in the league. We discuss his impact, what he brings tactically, and how he fits into the current system compared to other midfield options.

We then widen the discussion to look at Leeds United’s performances across the season, with a particular focus on their physical output. We analyse how Leeds’ intensity, work rate, and physical strength have allowed them to compete with any team in the Premier League, and why this has been such a key factor in their progress.

A balanced episode combining cup success, tactical discussion, and a broader look at Leeds United’s strengths as they enter a crucial stage of the season.
