Changes are coming for Leeds United and Jesse Marsch has laid the gauntlet down for his fringe options to pick up where Sunday’s heroes left off. The head coach has the ability to switch out his entire line-up for Barnsley’s visit and there are expectations the stand-ins deliver the same tactical clarity as was shown in the Chelsea win.
Adam Forshaw, Liam Cooper, Crysencio Summerville, Kristoffer Klaesson, Luis Sinisterra, Joe Gelhardt, Leo Hjelde, Cody Drameh, Sam Greenwood and Mateusz Klich all look well-placed for starts at Elland Road on Wednesday night. While they will be keen for minutes, Marsch wants to see a continuation of the weekend breakthrough everyone delivered.
“We’ve got Barnsley and we’ll probably rotate a few guys,” he said. “We need to see performances now from the entire squad that represent clarity and intelligence so we can really move everything along in the direction we want to go with every single player.”
