Leeds United is fighting a relegation battle in the Premier League. However, the weekend’s defeat against Nottingham Forest has affected their relegation battle badly. Leeds is now one place above the relegation zone in the Premier league table based on a better goal difference. 

However, after the game, American manager Jesse Marsch, who coaches Leeds United, was slandered with the nickname Yank Lampard drawing hilarious reactions from the fans. The pressure on the American is increasing every passing game, with the club due to take on high-flying Manchester United next. 

The fate of Marsch depends on the results the club will get in the next few games, with the club struggling to get out of the relegation zone. Leeds bolstered their midfield in January by signing USMNT star Weston McKennie. They will hope for a better display from the team with their top-flight place at stake. 

Fans react to the weird nickname of Leeds United manager

The 1-0 defeat against the fellow strugglers Nottingham Forest made fans nickname Marsch with Yank Lampard. It is a name derived from the name of former English midfielder and manager Frank Lampard, who Everton recently sacked after an array of poor results. 

It soon trended on Twitter, and one fan wrote, “Yank Lampard seems more offensive than Ted Lasso.”
