A lot of Leeds United fans have flocked to a post from Robin Koch after he played in Germany’s 1-0 win over the Czech Republic.
After the match, the 24-year-old tweeted ‘Right direction‘ with a picture of himself in action.
This drew the attention of many Leeds fans, who heaped praise on their defender.
So, what did these Leeds fans think of Koch’s tweet?
What a class player and person

Do you think Koch has settled in the Premier League?
No, he needs more time
Yes, he is learning
This was Koch’s fifth senior appearance for the German national side, and it is clear that some Leeds fans are pleased to see him playing for his country.
However, others are just hoping that he doesn’t get injured ahead of Leeds’ game with Arsenal at Elland Road, a couple more internationals to come for the German defender in the international break.
Don’t get injured

Koch signed for the Whites in the last transfer window for £11.7m from Freiburg and has made eight appearances for his new side so far.
However, in the Premier League, he has had a few below-par performances, earning ratings of 5.38/10 against Leicester City and 6.18 against Liverpool (as per WhoScored), so it is clear that there is room for improvement.
Despite this, though, he has also played well in a few games, earning ratings of 7.19 in the Whites’ 3-0 win over Aston Villa and also a rating of 7.34 in Leeds’ 1-0 victory over Sheffield United.
So, it could be argued that judging by Koch’s inconsistency, he could still be trying to adapt to the Premier League.
However, for now, many Whites fans are just keen to see Koch survive the international break unscathed, so we will have to see if he returns to Leeds injury-free.
