Jesse Marsch told what must improve for Leeds United to fly up Premier League table

It's not been a easy first half of the season for Jesse Marsch and Leeds United. With their 'main' striker Patrick Bamford constantly out with injuries, the American has had to mostly rely on Rodrigo and youngster Crysencio Summerville for their goals throughout the first 17 matches.

In fact, the Spaniard and the Dutchman have 14 league goals between them this season - that's 56% of the team's total goals. However, while eight of those goals have come against teams outside of the "big six" clubs (Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham, Liverpool and Manchester City), only two have resulted in wins.

It's no secret that Marsch style of football is almost a perfect example of the 'We'll just outscore our opponents' mindset when you look at how close Leeds' games have been so far this season.
