Sheffield Wednesday ace previews ‘toughest month’ of the season

Sheffield Wednesday defender Tom Lees has cited this upcoming month as the Owls’ toughest month of the season in an interview with the club’s official website earlier today.

The 27-year-old centre-half has been pivotal in a run which has seen the Owls win their last three league games heading into the international break but now fears a tricky run of fixtures coming up for the Yorkshire side.

Speaking to the club website, Lees said “We certainly won’t face a tougher month of fixtures than this one coming, with what many would have tipped as their top six all to play. The international break allowed us time to facilitate all these different needs and regroup for what is going to be a mega month ahead.

“That starts on Saturday against Stoke, who as much as anyone have depth and quality to their squad and players comfortable playing in the Premier League.”

The Owls sit 11th in the league following a narrow 2-1 win over Reading prior to the international break, but will face a tricky challenge to maintain their current position, with a tough run coming up.

“We have our own quality and strength and need to make sure we are performing at our best if we want to win the game.

“I’ve mentioned previously that home form is vital for us and we can make Hillsborough a tough place for visitors with our fantastic atmosphere and support. We have to carry on in the way we have done at home so far.”
