Jesse Marsch's Leeds United midfield question remains as Premier League restart nears

Jesse Marsch was keen to explore his Leeds United midfield options against on Friday as his side took on and beat Real Sociedad at Elland Road. The Whites are busy preparing for the restart of the Premier League season and in a week and a half’s time, they’ll be taking on Manchester City on home soil.

The clash will be United's first piece of competitive action since November 12 and Marsch will have hoping to see his side turn in a promising performance against Sociedad. They did exactly that, with Pascal Struijk and Rodrigo scoring the goals to secure a 2-1 win over Imanol Alguacil’s side, who currently sit third in the La Liga table and have a place in the knockout stages of the Europa League secured.

It wasn’t always pretty, but it was relatively comfortable and the head coach will have been content. However, it’s fair to say the Leeds chief still has a selection headache to solve ahead of that Man City clash.
