and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
The Whites sit ninth in the Premier League after six games and Jesse Marsch has had plenty of evidence to back up the positivity he’s brought to the table since arriving to replace Marcelo Bielsa.
New signings Tyler Adams, Brenden Aaronson and Marc Roca have caught the eye, while Luis Sinisterra is starting to show that the goal threat he posed in Holland will follow him into the English top flight.

Hide AdMarsch’s squad for the Brentford game boasted more experience on the bench than any in recent memory and senior players like Patrick Bamford, Luke Ayling and Liam Cooper are on their way back from injuries to rejoint he fray.
But big questions remain, not least after that deadline day and the confusion that arose over how much Leeds were able to invest in a striker this summer.
We took 37 of your questions on all manner of Elland Road subjects, including the stadium itself and Leeds’ plans for it.

@MD_Leeds: hat is the current state of play re Jean Kevin Augustin. It’s nearly 6 months since the CAS hearing, they wouldn’t normally take that long to make a decision on a relatively straight forward arbitration case would they? Phil was reporting RBL accepted the initial payment for Tyler Adams being delayed. That seems unusual and might suggest some cordiality to relations. Is it possible the clubs have had a decision from CAS and are keeping it confidential or have reached some other settlement between themselves?
CAS publish their decisions so if one had been reached I figure we would know by now. It’s possible that they’re helping the two clubs to come to some agreement and are not there yet. We were told in the summer, though, that the summer deals with Red Bull were very much separate to anything that went on previously over Jean-Kevin Augustin.
