Leeds midfielder Klich discusses first preseason under Marsch

Leeds midfielder Mateusz Klich says he's enjoyed a first preseason under Jesse Marsch.

Training sessions have been intense with the head coach encouraging his side to move the ball quickly and press high up the field, and Klich is pleased with the progress Leeds have made so far this summer.

“We've got some things to work on but I think it's gone pretty well," Klich said. “I have to say I've enjoyed being in Australia, it's nice.

“I've been in football a long time and it's not the first time a manager changes so I know how it works. Jesse came with new ideas and we need to do what he expects us to do and what he wants us to do.

“It is not man v man marking, that's the biggest difference, but still he wants to press and play intensive football. Marcelo's been gone a long time ago so there's no need to talk about him anymore.

“The sessions aren't really long but they are intensive so I have to say I enjoy it because it's short and sharp. We've had good numbers in the friendlies, fitness-wise, I've enjoyed pre-season so far."
