How Jesse Marsch’s reported Leeds United salary compares with Aston Villa, Newcastle United, Liverpool and Chelsea bosses - YEP 11/5/22
Judgement on the success of Leeds United's appointment of Jesse Marsch will be reserved for the final day of the Premier League season.
By Flora Snelson
Only then will it be clear whether the American was the
right man to take up the unenviable task of inheriting a squad entrenched in
three-and-a-half years' worth of Marcelo Bielsa's particular brand of football
and whipping them into a fit state to fight an incredibly tight battle to
remain in the Premier League.
Marsch has overseen some success since arriving at Elland
Road, guiding the Whites to breath-taking last-minute results against Norwich
City and Wolverhampton Wanderers and masterminding a convincing 3-0 win over
relegation rivals Watford.
But in moments, Leeds have looked lost under Marsch's
instruction, with performances against Crystal Palace and Aston Villa smacking
of a football team caught between two identities.
The loyal United fanbase will forgive poor performances,
though, if Leeds sit above the dreaded dotted line at the final whistle on
Sunday May 22. Until then, the jury is out on whether Marsch was the correct
pick. But how does Marsch's salary compare with that of other Premier League
