Leeds United midfielder Tyler Adams has been impressed with new boss Javi Gracia.
The Spaniard has taken over permanently from American Jesse Marsch as Leeds look to avoid the drop.
While Adams may have been disappointed to see his countryman depart, he is eager to learn from Gracia.
"He's impressed me a lot. When he first came in, we didn't have a lot of time to execute a perfect game plan for Southampton but what he did is focus on key bullet points, or key details that we need to improve," Adams told BBC West Yorkshire Sports Daily.
"One of those things was with the ball. How can we break teams down more efficiently in possession whether from goal kicks or when we get into the attacking third. Not just going to the goal straight away.
"Leeds are notorious for winning the ball back quickly and going straight to the goal. But not every time we win the ball, do we need to play the first pass forward that we see.
"Maybe we can keep the ball for two, three passes, switch the ball from side to side and start to tire the opponent. You saw that a little bit more against Southampton.
"He offers more of a balanced approach to the way that we're going to play. It's not just all out pressing, or all out possession, but of a balance."
