Rene Maric joined Leeds United's coaching staff under Jesse Marsch.
Former Leeds United assistant coach Rene Maric insists there were similarities between the playing styles of Marcelo Bielsa and Jesse Marsch. Marsch succeeded Bielsa at Elland Road in February 2022 after a run of poor results, in the midst of an injury crisis, saw the latter sacked. Then-sporting director Victor Orta had long been in contact with the American, identifying him as the like-for-like successor to Bielsa in terms of intensity and playing style.
In the end, in terms of why it didn't work out, it's not easy to say. There are things that you can say, like the expected goals numbers were better than the rest showed. In terms of the absolute amount of running and sprinting, we were still top three in the league.
