Horrible time to sack. Ahead of a game at United

243

Two matches against United in six days. Hopefully they at least have a manager in place for the return leg at Elland Road.

I can see that happening.

It just beggars belief somewhat.

2 games against United. You have a manager already in place. What’s the worst that’ll happen with the existing guy? 2 defeats?

They get rid of Marsch and they’ll probably get walloped in both games now. They’re due a win against those twats, too. I’d give em no chance now.

He hasn’t won a game since November 5th though.
He can’t have any complaints IMO

Bielsa will get them back to the Championship.
They’ve got the cloud. Get a proper coach in to keep you up.

He certainly can’t but they spent like 40m during the winter window and gave him one game after it closed? Why spend the money unless he’s completely disconnected from recruitment.

Wonder how Weston McKennie feels :sweat_smile:

The whole thing looks a bit of a shambles, especially after they bought him players in January. If they were going to sack him, they should have done it earlier and let the new man weigh in on transfers.

I think they’re looking at the upcoming matches against Everton and Southampton and thinking they need a manager well in place by then.

That recruitment alone wasn’t addressing the clubs needs.
He needed to sure up that defence and midfield. He didn’t address it again.
Granted they should have more points with the chances they create in games.

Don’t disagree but I’m not sure if he had any decision making authority. The Leeds doc made it look like their DoF figure had a ton of power.

Overall maybe he was unlucky with some finishing but it can’t be an excuse. Terrified he ends up as NT coach.

Might as well have kept Marsch if these two were the replacement choices
