Leeds United manager Jesse Marsch will be scratching his head about how to fix his side’s issues right now.

The Whites fell to another defeat, and have now gone eight games without a win in the league.

A report from The Athletic has looked at what Marsch did at the full-time whistle yesterday.

Leeds fans were already leaving the ground when Wilian extended Fulham’s lead to make the score 3-1.

Crysencio Summerville scored a late consolation goal to make things interesting, but Fulham held on for three points.

The Athletic suggest that Marsch looked ‘beaten’ at full-time yesterday, before ‘exchanging demoralised handshakes’ with the Fulham staff.

Marsch applauded the fans, which was met by a mixed response from the Leeds fans.

He then booted a ball away in frustration towards the West Stand as he walked across the pitch.

The American manager would have been encouraged by his side going into the lead yesterday.

A deflected shot from Jack Harrison found Rodrigo Moreno at the back-post who nodded the ball into the empty net.

However, Fulham had already had a shot cleared off the line at this point, and then took control of the game.

Goals from Aleksandar Mitrovic, Bobby Decordova-Reid and Willian secured the result for the visitors.

Patrick Bamford once again failed to take his chances and Marsch has to work out how to get the best out of the striker.

A report from The Telegraph suggests Marsch still has the backing of the Leeds board going forward.

With his side now in the relegation zone, it will be interesting to see just how much he’s given to turn things around.

Leeds fans were certainly struggling to fully get behind Marsch at full-time yesterday.

He’s now got the small matter of a trip to Liverpool next weekend to try and stop the rot.
