Jesse Marsch names the player who will replace Pascal Struijk in starting line-up

Posted by

Jesse Marsch has confirmed Junior Firpo will star for Leeds in absence of injured Pascal Struijk tonight against Leicester City.

The 26-year-old will start his first Premier League game for Leeds this season after being out with injury he suffered during pre-season tour.

“Junior will start and he will be ready, patiently waiting,” said the Whites boss.

“Excited for him to get his chance to show he’s ready.”

“I have heard criticisms,” the Leeds boss said about a player Angus Kinnear called “world-class”.

“But since I have been here he has only tried his best to adapt to be the best player for me.

“His passing and technical ability is among the best in our team.

“Tactical awareness is keen and if he can continue to add aggression he can become a real two-way player.” – finished Marsch.

  1. His he watching another player to what I have watched sine he arrived.
    He cannot defend he lost the ball more times than the ball boy’s touched the ball.
    Use someone from under 21’s and send him out in lone to A 2nd division club if they will have him.

    Get a grip of the team two many changes at anyone time in the space of he week, you don’t do that In grassroots football!!
