Leeds United defender Max Wober has admitted that he misses former Whites manager Jesse Marsch but claims that the American's exit was 'the business of football'.
The Austrian was brought to Elland Road by Marsch in the January transfer window, just a couple of weeks before he was sacked by the Whites board at the start of February following a 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest.
Now the defender is playing under Javi Gracia and is becoming an increasingly important piece of the Leeds defence, having played 90 minutes in all but two of the last nine Whites league matches.

"Of course, I miss Jesse," Wober told Sky Sports Austria. "I made this move because he was keen to bring me to Leeds. But that’s the business of football, everything can change. If the successes don’t come, the coach is the first to vacate the pitch."
Having played under Marsch at Red Bull Salzburg, his club before his move to the Premier League, the Austria international explained that there was a big difference to get used to when arriving in England.
"Of course it’s a difference to Salzburg, where you know that you can take the three points in at least 90% of the games. Now every weekend is a full fighting game, anyone can win against anyone.
"You can tell that there is insane pressure and that the club’s existence is at stake. It’s definitely the toughest league I’ve played in so far.
"Every game feels like a Champions League game in terms of intensity. You have to be alert every second, otherwise it will rattle at the back."
