Four matches have passed without defeat for Leeds United and fresh from a 3-0 victory, Jesse Marsch must surely feel some reticence in changing anything in his side. There is one change the head coach has committed to, but the rest of his side seems to be in good nick.
Kalvin Phillips, as Marsch revealed in Friday’s press conference, will make his first start in more than four months as he returns to the line-up at Crystal Palace on Monday night. Adam Forshaw’s fractured kneecap rules him out of partnering the England international.
Mateusz Klich is the natural option to remain in there, though we know Robin Koch has never been short of praise from Marsch through his press conferences. Given Koch was on the bench before Forshaw’s calf issue at Watford, you would have to suspect that underlines where he sits in Marsch’s pecking order.
