Jesse Marsch will be calling on his Leeds United side to take more accountability this weekend as he watches on from the stands. The head coach will be serving the one-match ban he received following his red card during Leeds’ 5-2 loss to Brentford at the start of September.
His dismissal came following a penalty incident in west London as Crysencio Summerville hit the deck under pressure from a Bees defender. The referee waved away the Whites’ claims, but Marsch’s protests were deemed to overstep the mark.
As such, the American was handed a touchline ban, as well as a £10,000 fine, meaning he will be forced to watch Sunday’s game against Aston Villa from a distance. His assistant Rene Maric will be the man barking out the orders from the technical area against Steven Gerrard’s side at Elland Road, with help from Mark Jackson and Cameron Toshack.
