How Jesse Marsch's chaotic start as Leeds United boss compares to his recent predecessors

It has been quite a hectic start to Jesse Marsch's reign as Leeds United head coach. The American was appointed at the end of last month after the sacking of Marcelo Bielsa.

Marsch's first game in charge came at Leicester City, where the Whites were hoping to end a five-game losing run. Although the Foxes came out 1-0 winners, it was a much-improved performance from Leeds - creating an impressive xG of 2.15 on the day.

After a 3-0 defeat against Aston Villa, the Whites hosted Norwich City in what was billed as a must-win game. Just as the Canaries looked to have snatched a point, Leeds won it in dramatic circumstances when Joe Gelhardt fired the ball into the net, sparking wild scenes at Elland Road.
