An intense battle with the league leaders!
This past weekend proved Enzo Maresca and the squad are capable of battling for the title this season after a 1-1 draw against Arsenal at Stamford Bridge. It was bittersweet as the lads took it to the London rivals for much of the 1st half, but once again, a red card spoiled the momentum. Moises Caicedo put in a heavy challenge on Mikel Merino that led to a yellow card, but VAR stepped in to review and upgraded this into a red card offense meaning Caicedo will be suspended for the next three matches which could have a impact in a December run of matches.
Up 1st will be an away matchup against rivals, Leeds United at Elland Road. The Yorkshire team has been struggling of late losing the last 4 matches and are currently in the bottom three of the relegation zone. It will still be a tough match as it always is at Elland Road and it will be crucial to come away with three points to stay in the battle up top as the fixtures really ramp up in December - 8 in total across all comps.
Come down to the Londoner Addison this Wednesday afternoon and kick it with the Shed End Dallas crew. We look forward to seeing you there.
Cheers,
Shed End Dallas
