Leeds striker Robbie Blake has acclaimed United's 4-3 win at Southampton on Saturday as the best match he has played in.
The 29-year-old netted Leeds' second as they battled back from three goals down with less than 20 minutes to play to claim the points.
"I've never been involved in game like that before," Blake told the club's official website.
"It was like a film, it was all end to end and we weren't in it first half but we certainly changed it around in the second half.
"We are delighted with the three points. They're huge points for us because to come back against a team like Southampton is a massive feat for us.
"At half-time we wanted to go out there and get a bit of pride back. We had 3,000 Leeds fans coming all the way down here to see that first half and it just wasn't good enough.
"The three goals were sloppy but we managed to show great character and bounce back."
