Robin Koch has admitted that Leeds United's 6-1 defeat against Liverpool makes it "hard" in their fight for survival in the Premier League.
Leeds have leaked 11 goals in their last two games, and have now conceded more goals (60) than any Premier League club this season.
The Whites face three crucial games in succession against Fulham, Leicester City and Bournemouth respectively. Koch has acknowledged that the previous two games has put them in a difficult position, but insists that they must put the past eight days behind them ahead of a season-defining run of fixtures.

"It's hard for us but we need to put this game aside now and we've got three massive games coming. It's extremely hard for us now but we put it aside and go again for the next three games," he told LUTV.
"If you leave them too much space like we did [you get punished]. In the second half we wanted to turn the game around and put everything into the game. We scored the goal as well but they had more space in the offensive half."
