Jesse Marsch's methods already showing despite four days with Leeds

The American accent is rarely taken seriously in English football. Fans just don't seem fond of managers who have spent their life calling the game 'soccer'.

And yet they might learn a thing or two from Jesse Marsch, so long as they don't lump him in with Ted Lasso, the fish-out-of-water American coach played by Jason Sudeikis in the comedy series.

Ultimately, Marsch must do his talking on the pitch. And though the result was not the one he wanted on Saturday, Leeds' performance at the King Power Stadium said plenty.

Leicester City (4-3-3): Schmeichel 8.5; Choudhury 6.5 (Lookman 61min, 6), Amartey 6.5, Soyuncu 6.5, Thomas 6.5; Tielemans 7, Ndidi 6.5 (Mendy 76), Dewsbury-Hall 7.5; Albrighton 6, Vardy 6 (Iheanacho 61, 6), Barnes 7.5.

Scorer: Barnes 67. 

Booked: Ndidi. 

Manager: Brendan Rodgers 6.5.

Leeds United (4-2-3-1): Meslier 6; Dallas 6, Ayling 5.5, Struijk 6, Firpo 6.5; Koch 6.5, Klich 6.5 (Forshaw 70, 6); Raphinha 6, Rodrigo 6 (Gelhardt 63, 6), Harrison 7 (Roberts 76); James 6.

Booked: Struijk, Forshaw. 

Manager: Jesse Marsch 6.

Referee: David Coote 6. 

Attendance: 32,236.

But it was good to hear Marsch's name chanted, too, when Leeds were dominating the game midway through the first half.
