Marsch has been and is a disaster. He has managed to drain all the confidence and Bielsa swagger out of the players. He has marginally improved the defence in that we are conceding slightly smaller hatfuls of goals in a different way - opposition players don't get to just waltz through wide open spaces anymore, they have to actually construct attacks against a set defence before scoring. But we are incapable of retaining possession so the pressure on the marginally improved defence is incessant and it is bound to crack. We can't get the ball out of our half! When Meslier gets the ball, he either passes it short, in which case we play 3 or if we're lucky 4 nice little triangle passes and then lose it on the halfway line, or he chips it into midfield where we either lose the first ball or lose the second ball.
Marsch is very similar in one respect to another glib charlatan, Boris Johnson. Just as the pandemic and the war have given Johnson the opportunity to mask the disastrous effects of his insane plan to take the country out of the EU, so injuries and ridiculous red cards allow Marsch to mask the disastrous effects of his "coaching."
