Despite Marcelo Bielsa’s high status at Elland Road it was inevitable he would be shown the door following a calamitous run of results that dragged Leeds into a relegation battle. Jesse Marsch has little time to ease himself in due to their precarious position with his first task being to fix a defence that shipped 20 goals in five games during February – a Premier League record. The continued absence of Kalvin Phillips and most probably Patrick Bamford adds to his problems although that will cut little ice with Leicester who are still without the defenders Jonny Evans, Timothy Castagne, Wesley Fofana and Ryan Bertrand.
