Leeds legend Daniel Farke has recalled the rivalry between Leeds and Chelsea, which began in 1970 when Chelsea won the FA Cup final replay at Old Trafford. The match was remembered as the most brutal game in English football, with violent tackles, kung-fu kicks, and punch-ups going unpunished by referee Eric Jennings. The replay was re-refereed twice by leading officials, with David Elleray concluding in 1997 that he would have shown six red cards and in 2020, Michael Oliver stating he would've sent off 11 players. Farke's comments follow comments from Craig Burley and Craig Pearson about the situation at Chelsea, with Farke stating that the club's history is crucial for a successful manager. Despite leading Leeds to Premier League promotion last summer and one step from an FA Cup Final, Farke remains popular among fans with his performance.
