Speaking of Leipzig, they talked about them on Sirius recently. Why did Jesse Marsch fail? Well it really was he was thrown under the bus. Marsch trained under Rangnick at Leipzig who is the father gegenpressing style of football, then went to Salzburg and continued that style there with great success. But Leipzig hired Nagelsmann, and the gegenpressing style gone. So when Marsch hired, the players were no longer suited for it. Someone like Timo Werner totally flourished under it, and now you can see why he is floundering at Chelsea. So Leipzig bring Tedesco in, who returns them more the Nagelsmann style. No wonder they are having success. The talent has always been there, but style of play the teams was not used to killed Marsch. Over time, he probably would have been successful, but at club like Leipzig the rope is short since Champions League expected. The gegenpressing style seems to be working at Leeds, so maybe the personel under Bielsa suited that better. Rangnick not having much success at Man U, again look at the roster. Too many egos, and really are Cavani, Ronaldo, Pogba going to play a high pressure gegenpressing style? Hell no.
