Jesse Marsch is a relative unknown to English football fans and his appointment at Leeds United is seen as a gamble by some pundits in the media.
The American - who has replaced Marcelo Bielsa at Leeds - has spent the majority of his career in the States, with recent stints at RB Salzburg and RB Leipzig his only taste of European competition.
Appointing the 48-year-old may be seen as a left-field choice given the Whites’ precarious league position. A heavy defeat to Spurs has heightened fears about relegation, with Leeds just two points above the drop zone.
