Key Jesse Marsch decision questioned in Leeds United’s frustrating Tottenham loss

Jesse Marsch's decision not to convert to a back five and match Tottenham Hotspur in the middle of midfield left former Leeds United defender and BBC pundit, Jon Newsome, puzzled. The Whites took the lead three times against Antonio Conte's side, but were pegged back each time, with Rodrigo Bentancur scoring a brace in the final few minutes of the game to wrap up the three points.

The Whites head coach admitted that his side are prone to lapses in concentration which has cost them once again. A win in the capital would have made it three on the bounce for Marsch and Leeds United, but it wasn't to be.

They now head into the international break in 15th place, two points above the relegation zone.
