Must Watch of the Week
By Daniel Nogueira
Leeds United v. Wolves | PREMIER LEAGUE | 8/6/2022
The English Premier League is BACK for the 22-23 season—let’s get into it. If you’re a weekly Must Watch-er, you’ll recall that we covered this up-and-coming, dynamic team in previous segments. Leeds United (finished 17th 21-22) successfully brought on American manager Jesse Marsch (RACINE, WI native) towards the end of the season last year. I say successfully because he managed to keep the team out of relegation! Let me reiterate this; a Wisconsin born, former USMNT player, is the Head coach of a team in the English Premier League – unreal! Their opponent for this opening day is Wolverhampton Wanderers, aka Wolves (finished 10th 21-22), who are not a team to take lightly. Marsch signed two fellow countrymen Brenden Aaronson (#7) and Tyler Adams (#12) and gave them both a chance in the starting lineup. If you tune in for a Leeds United Must Watch, you are right to expect it will drum up your passion for the game!
Coach Daniel’s Man of the Match: Brenden Aaronson #7 (LUFC)
