Jesse Marsch's best Leeds United XI after the international break as key players return

Leeds United's 3-2 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux last Friday night was a huge one in terms of the team's survival chances but it came at a price. Leeds were forced into four substitutions due to injuries, with Patrick Bamford, Diego Llorente, Mateusz Klich and Illan Meslier having to come off but after the game, Jesse Marsch told Sky Sports that he thought all four were 'OK'.

Bamford's injury is said to have been a flare up of the foot issue he has already been managing, whilst Llorente and Meslier were thought to have picked up a strain and some bruising respectively. Meanwhile, Klich was forced off due to a concussion after Robin Koch collided with him.

Leeds' next fixture is on April 2, thanks to the international break, meaning that all four of those players should have the time needed to recover. With Kalvin Phillips and Liam Cooper expected to be at full capacity by that point, Marsch will hopefully only have Tyler Roberts, Junior Firpo and Leo Hjelde missing from his first-team squad.
