Former Leeds United goalkeeper Paul Robinson has taken aim at manager Jesse Marsch.

Leeds have picked up just two points from their last six games and ex-Whites keeper Robinson reckons it's "only a matter of time before noises are made" regarding Marsch's future.

The American has hit out at rivals slowing the game down to disrupt Leeds' turbo-charged style.

And Robinson told The Sun: “Jesse is infectious but at times he's too open and honest.

“He seems to criticise other teams every week for breaking up play, slowing the game down and upsetting Leeds' rhythm.

“He moans about it every game and then he's surprised that the next opponents do the same thing!"

Former England stopper Robinson, 43, added: “He's earned himself time after keeping Leeds in the Premier League but over time it will tell if it was the right decision to bring him in.

“Jesse did what he was brought in to do last year but it's only going to be a matter of time before noises are made. Bournemouth and Fulham were two of the three favourites to go down but look at the way they've started.

“Leeds were also in that potential relegation group at the start of the season, and the nearer they slip towards it the more trouble they're going to get in.

“He's going to have to get results.

“They've got the team and personnel to cause problem, like they did against Chelsea and Arsenal last Sunday

“They've done it at times during games but he's struggling to get that type of performance every week against sides not in the top six."
