Jesse Marsch believes Tyler Adams is close to top form at present following his strong Leeds United debut on Saturday. The midfielder made his first start for the Whites at Elland Road and played his part to help Marsch’s side pick up their first points of the new Premier League season.
He featured alongside fellow new recruit Marc Roca and proved to be a constant pest in the middle of the park, putting pressure on Wolves’ midfield as he looked to break up play. Marsch knows Adams well, of course, having worked with him at New York Red Bulls and RB Leipzig, and the American pair have a very strong relationship.
It was that bond that facilitated Adams’ move to the Premier League over the summer and he looks set to play a key role under Marsch once more this season. The 23-year-old played the full 90 minutes against Wolves and managed to pick up praise from his head coach after the game, but Marsch was also quick to point out the room for improvement he has.
