Leeds midfielder Jack Harrison has revealed one-on-one chats with manager Jesse Marsch has lifted his form.
Harrison said that one of the biggest changes for him personally has been Marsch pushing him to be more aggressive. The 25-year-old winger said he had previously been “too nice" at times.
Speaking to The Times, Harrison said: “Jesse has definitely challenged me. There are moments where maybe I let a defender get in front of me. Jesse's creating this mentality of, 'No, don't allow them anything, be aggressive.'
“I'm doing my best to do everything that he's asking for and it's tough at times. It's just not taking anything from anyone.
“If there's a challenge it's making sure I'm going in, going all the way through and doing everything I can to win the ball. When attacking, it's just being ruthless. It's about having this mentality. Kalvin's a great example, whether it's a challenge or a pass, he has that mentality."
Harrison was also asked about the departure of Marcelo Bielsa. He said: "It was tough to see him go but at the same time it's been great for Jesse to come in. He's been great. Jesse plays more narrow and it's about being able to play in more central areas and tighter areas."
