The Eagles are struggling to deal with the demands of European football, and their league form is starting to suffer as a result.<\/p>\n<p>They&#8217;ve lost their last three league games in a row and are without a victory in five in all competitions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Leeds United are prepared to offer Chelsea outcast Axel Disasi a January escape route with a potential loan deal.\u00a0 Daniel Farke&#8217;s in-form side have given themselves a solid platform for Premier League survival with Sunday&#8217;s 1-1 draw with Sunderland stretching their unbeaten run to five games.
