Jesse Marsch remains 'optimistic' that Leeds United can improve their squad this summer.
When quizzed about the tight turnaround, Marsch said: "I think you know, in Germany they call when you play midweek, [they have a saying], which means an English week.
"Because when you sit in German and you watch how many games that the Championship plays and the games in the Premier and everything else, and no winter break, and you know, you know when I came to this league, I knew this was going to be a big challenge, was how to perform game in and game out week in and week out with so many matches.
"It's one of the reasons that we've tried to build a bigger squad so that we're ready to rotate and we can count on more players and hopefully put fewer players at risk of injury.
Asked if he was still looking to build a bigger squad, Marsch told reporters: "Yeah, I think we're still remaining optimistic and active."
