Looking ahead to Sunday’s clash with Norwich, Jesse Marsch gave his thoughts on the upcoming match against the Canaries.
The Whites lost against Aston Villa at Elland Road on Thursday night and they are now looking to return to winning ways, against the side that sit bottom of the Premier League table at present.
“My focus will be on understanding how to paint a picture so that we can understand a little bit better,” Marsch explained, on what he will be looking to work in before the game.
“I'm confident I already have some things in my mind about some of the aggressiveness against the ball.
“Also, some of the movements against the ball some of the ideas with the ball, enforcing discipline in how we want to play in all phases of the game.
“We need to know that it's a difficult situation but we're not getting out of it by hiding or being afraid.
“The only way we're getting out of it is by being brave and having courage and belief so that they get it, that's what leadership is about.”
Sunday’s match against Norwich is the second at home this week and is the last match at Elland Road prior to the international break.
Marsch said: “I would like to think that we can perform it at a very high level and a lot of matches at home, but we didn't get that on Thursday.
“Certainly going to the Norwich match, we already know that they're very good on the counter and that they'll defend a little bit deeper and that they’ll look to make it difficult for us to find the goal.
“Since I've been here, we haven't found a goal. Most of the teams that I've managed over the years have scored a lot of goals.
“Part of the reason we're not scoring goals is because when we get to the final third, there's too many individual moments where players want to make something individually happen. Instead of understanding how to stick to roles, and movements and ideas that we want to execute in the final third.
“So, we'll look at that again. I'll try to not overwhelm them with too much information but also try to make them very clear as to what we wanted, what we want Sunday to look like.”
