The Reds’ false start to the season, with consecutive defeats to Brighton & Hove Albion and Brentford, thankfully feels in the past after a run of five wins in our last six games. The home loss to Real Sociedad was followed up by a confident 2-0 triumph against Sheriff Tiraspol to ensure the picture in Group E of the Europa League looks much rosier.
Hence, with the Leeds United fixture postponed on Sunday, there is a reason to look forward to our return from the upcoming international break with optimism, while hoping all of our stars come back unscathed from their UEFA Nations League and friendly duties.
