Jesse Marsch has more than a couple of difficult decisions to make ahead of Monday night’s clash with Nottingham Forest. The head coach could well make changes up front, at centre-back and even at left-back as Junior Firpo edges closer towards making his return to action.
However, the toughest call he must make arguably comes at right-back with three players vying for one spot. Rasmus Kristensen started Leeds’ first five Premier League games at right-back following his summer switch from Red Bull Salzburg and at the start of the season it seemed as though he was the man destined to take the role on a permanent basis moving forward.
The Dane hasn’t quite settled in as well as he would have hoped, though, and after missing the trip to Brentford on Saturday through injury, it seems his place is well and truly in question. Cody Drameh was the man chosen to come into the side by Jesse Marsch, while the head coach had the luxury of being able to name fit again Luke Ayling as a substitute.
