Uwe Rosler has praised Leeds United supporters for generating an "unbelievable" atmosphere in his first league game in charge of the club.
The 46-year-old, who has previously managed Brentford and Wigan Athletic, took over from Neil Redfearn in May.
Rosler issued a rallying cry in the build-up to Saturday's Championship opener against Burnley, tasking Leeds fans to turn up the noise levels, and he believes those inside Elland Road duly delivered.
"The support we got was unbelievable - the place was rocking," he told United's official website. "It was unbelievable.
"When we drove the bus into Elland Road and saw the amount of people who were already there, I told my coaches, 'This is why we're working so hard, take that moment in'.
"I said to them, 'This is just the start'. It was fantastic. I couldn't have dreamt of a better atmosphere in my first competitive game."
Mirco Antenucci's strike seven minutes from time was not enough for Leeds, who had to make do with a 1-1 draw thanks to a late Sam Vokes equaliser.
