Pressure is beginning to mount on Jesse Marsch following defeat to fellow strugglers Leicester City. Leeds United were comfortably beaten by Brendan Rodgers' side at the King Power Stadium last night, to compile further misery on head coach.
Things started so brightly this season, with an emphatic 3-0 win over Chelsea at Elland Road the highlight of the campaign to date. However, that's also the last time the Whites won in the Premier League, a worrying sign baring in mind who they've played and who lies on the horizon prior to the winter break for the World Cup.
Marsch's side know they must win against Fulham to buy themselves some time before taking on Liverpool, Bournemouth and Tottenham Hotspur ahead of the World Cup. Last night's defeat to the Foxes has done nothing to quell any nerves about a repeat of last season.
