Leeds manager Jesse Marsch has admitted he is ‘angry’ and ‘tired’ after eight games without a win in the Premier League.
While the Whites only drew with Everton, Aston Villa and Aston Villa during this spell, they have had excellent opportunities to draw against Crystal Palace. Arsenal.

And having witnessed another two defeats, to Leicester and Fulham, the ex-RB Leipzig coach is in mood for his players to continue their profligacy against Liverpool on Saturday night – live on talkSPORT.
He said: “I am actually kind of angry right now. I’m tired of losing matches in which we are the better team and, in many cases, the opponents win and leaving with nothing. I am tired not taking advantage of moments when we are in a match with the better team. I am tired giving away goals too cheaply, and I am tired not getting the results that I need.
“14 years as a player and 13 years as a coach, I have never lost this much in my career and I am sick of it. I am trying to figure out which guys can be counted on at the highest level right now, what kind of decisions need to be made from a tactical perspective in terms of match plans and I need to help the group find their confidence and find which guys are ready to fight for everything right now so that in these next matches we can do everything we can to get the points we need.”
Marsch added: “They (the board) have been very supportive. I’ve spoken with Angus (Kinnear, chief executive), Andrea (Radrizzani, chairman) and Victor (Orta, director of football) multiple times.
“We’ve done a few things, we’re modifying our World Cup schedule to think about how we can maximise what we need in the moment, everything from matches to where we are travelling for training.
“We’ve talked about adding staff, we’re looking carefully at things like psychologists and adding to the complexity of what we’re doing as staff.
“Transfers obviously, and they have been very supportive, but of course I’m not dumb, I understand exactly that if we don’t win games I put them in a very difficult situation to continue to support me.”
Many feel that Leeds is losing his chance to face Tottenham and Man City before the year ends.
The ‘Marsch out’ chants grew louder in Yorkshire in last Sunday’s defeat to Fulham, and Marsch believes the fans’ emotions are understandable given they have taken only two points from the last 24 available.
“I think Elland Road was not overly negative,” he added. “I actually thought the way that they treated the team and the situation we’re in, given the negativity they could be feeling, I felt it’s a fanbase that still loves the club and their team.
“They all recognise we’re not in a situation we want to be in. Some of them want me to leave.
“Some people just want to see us find a way to turn the corner because they can see that the performances are not bad.
“It’s normal. Whether it’s with the board or whether it’s with the team, we have to find a way to start getting results or the questions come more and more in my direction.”
