Episode 173: Chelsea's Red Card Curse: Benfica Blunder, Mourinho's Barbs & Liverpool Looming
Description
Blues in the red literally. On this week's From the Shed End, we're unpacking Chelsea's chaotic Conference League clash with Benfica: a match review that exposes our defensive disasters and that unbelievable third red card in three games. Was it Enzo's folly, or are we just cursed?
We dive deep into:
- The full Benfica breakdown: Tactics gone wrong, missed chances, and how we limped to a 1-0 win with 10 men.
- Jose Mourinho's pre-match mic drop—his sly digs at Maresca and the squad had us howling (or hiding).
- Marc Guiu's bench exile: The kid wonder from Barca deserves minutes—why's he wasting away?
- Three reds in a row: Discipline meltdown or deeper issues?
- October's brutal fixture list: Survival guide for the Premier League grind.
- Chelsea vs Liverpool preview: Key matchups, Anfield nerves, and my scoreline call—can we avoid another horror show?
