Joao Felix struck the bar's underside. However, the hosts returned stronger from the vacation, and it only took nine minutes for Fofana to meet Ben Chilwell's corner and score.

Leeds, who have only won the league on the road once this season, could have done better. Their only real effort on target came from their goalkeeper IllanMeslier, who poked a header into the goal in the final minute. KepaArrizabalaga, his Chelsea counterpart, however, saved it.

However, it also places them second in place and Arsenal fans are hopeful that this year would be good for them.

Wright, as an expert, also feels that his former team has a good chance this time. However, he also feels that three players need to keep their form to ensure this success. He came on the show Kelly and Wrighty to say that, it is all about enjoying moments on the field. With that perspective, the team does seem to be focused on what is required.
