Last season, Marcelo Bielsa’s obsession with man-to-man marking was doing Leeds more harm than good.
Opponents were leading their markers on a merry dance around the pitch.
But Leeds are looking much more balanced under Jesse Marsch, whose pressing philosophy was on show in last week’s emphatic 3-0 win over Chelsea at Elland Road.
Marsch signed a workaholic in Brenden Aaronson in the summer and he joined Dan James, the ever-improving Rodrigo and Jack Harrison in the front line, leaving Chelsea with no time to think in possession.
