Leeds United new boy Ezgjan Alioski admits that he enjoys working under Thomas Christiansen, who he feels has been doing a great job of handling a big squad at Elland Road.
Whites head coach Christiansen took over in the summer from Garry Monk, who earned much credit for Leeds finishing seventh in the Championship last season.
The former Barcelona man signed a number of players during the recently concluded transfer window and also dealt with the blow of Chris Wood leaving for Burnley.
And Christiansen has managed to get Leeds off to a great start to the season as they sit at the top of the league table after seven games in the Championship.
Alioski, one of the players Leeds signed in the summer from Swiss side Lugano, admits that he enjoys the Dane’s emphasis on more ball work during training sessions.

The Macedonian also added that he loves the way Christiansen has been handling the players in a big Leeds squad this season.
The forward said in a press conference when asked about what he likes about Christiansen: “How he works with his staff, I enjoy it.
“We do so many exercises with the ball and it’s nice as you know when you go on the pitch that you’ll be working with the ball.
“It’s not easy for him as well as he is new here and we have a big squad, so it’s not easy for him to decide which player plays and which ones stay home.
“I like the way he handles these things.”
