Roy Keane highlights 'feel good factor' around Leeds United amid Jesse Marsch squad additions

Leeds United have shown their 'feel good factor' after last night's 5-2 demolition of Cardiff City according to ITV Sport pundits Robert Earnshaw and Roy Keane.

The Whites dominated from the first minute, inside which Wilfried Gnonto's incredible volley gave them a 1-0 lead before Rodrigo found his 13th of the season to make it 2-0 after 34 minutes.

Two minutes later, Gnonto found his second of the match with a nice finish past Allsop before Patrick Bamford found a brace in his short 15-minute cameo off the bench with two delightful goals.

After the match, Earnshaw highlighted how they would've felt after a tough loss against Aston Villa, and why that's helped them bounce back so well against the Bluebirds.

"It does yeah. What happens is last week they played against Aston Villa, they played well and felt good after the game but had no points [to show for it].

"This is the game now where the goals start to come, Bamford comes back with a couple, Gnonto goes up another level and he gets goals with his good dribbling and good play.

"And then obviously the new signings are watching as well, so Jesse Marsch will be looking at his squad and saying, 'We've got a real chance here'."

Keane then noted how despite the tough road ahead, the next few days will feel great for the club as they look towards this weekend's clash with Brentford.

"It's been a good night for Leeds - they've got the 'feel good factor' when you see the reaction after the game. Everyone will at the Leeds training ground tomorrow, they'll be smiling, feeling a bit better about themselves but there's obviously tough times ahead."
