‘It’s the Best Midfield I’ve Played With’ – Stach on Life at Leeds…..
Leeds United midfielder Anton Stach has opened up about his time at Elland Road, describing the current squad as the strongest midfield unit he has ever been part of. Since arriving at the club, the German international has quickly established himself as a key figure in Daniel Farke’s system, earning praise for his composure, vision, and tactical intelligence.
Speaking this week, Stach admitted he has been impressed not only by the quality of his teammates but also by the collective spirit within the group. “This is the best midfield I’ve played with,” he said. “Every player brings something different – energy, creativity, discipline. The balance is perfect, and it makes my role easier.”
Leeds’ midfield depth has been crucial in their Championship campaign, with Farke able to rotate options without losing consistency. Stach highlighted the partnerships he has developed with Archie Gray, Glen Kamara, and Ilia Gruev, noting the understanding between them both in and out of possession.
The 25-year-old’s words will be welcome news for Leeds fans, who have seen the club undergo a major rebuild following relegation from the Premier League. His enthusiasm reflects growing confidence inside the dressing room, as Leeds push to secure promotion back to the top flight.
Stach also praised the support from the Elland Road faithful, admitting the atmosphere has made settling in England much easier. “The fans are incredible. You feel their passion in every game, and it gives you motivation to fight for them,” he said.
With Stach thriving and the midfield firing, Leeds appear well-placed to sustain their promotion charge. For the German, life in West Yorkshire has not just been about adapting – it’s about thriving in the best environment of his career.
