He's been saying it on and on that he needs a Cb


The board won't listen

I hope the board listen to him, it's obviously obvious to the blind
Just listen to his lamentation below👇👇👇


🚨 😳 Enzo Maresca on the need for a centre back:

“Fofana played 45 minutes in that position(CCB). It was the first half against Bournemouth away. Probably one of the worst halves since we started”

Benoit playing in the middle, the Conference League final, first half, we were losing 1-0”

“We changed him with Levi and won 4-1. It's not the same. The one in the middle, in my way, is so, so, so important."

The CB chance veiga has been crying over this could have been his chance but no.

Missed out out club world cub ,missed out on the prize money.

I never seen a big loser like him ,you'd don't come in and dictate thems as youngster,is not as if he wasn't seeing game time.

Smh.

lordfalcao:
20 non penalty goal on the table. That's one of the criteria he will use to prove that he is better than Jackson in the box.

Very simple.

Jakujaku Jackson's juju never expire for your body.

Timbros you remember?

airmark:
Yes, thanks to Reecy for that cross to outscore Forest. Imagine when Colwill and Fofana return to the defence too. Who will start Badiashile? .

Get a CB to replace Silva and upgrade our attack, we will do better.

Ibime what's up with lookman transfer is he also stubborn like Osumhen ?

Realtord43:
Liverpool will ship in goals for sure.

Raumdeuter, abeg were Van dijk dey go

Aura defending at its finest. See as him dey jog like fine boy lmao

airmark:
Timbros you remember?

How long did Fofana's return last?
He managed to played a whopping 14 league games before inevitably getting injured long term again, great achievement from him..


U truly can't go one whole week without craving for Timbros's attention las las.. This one pass obsession!!

Agenda na it the make una do all this one. VVD was tracking a runner. It was Konate who was marking Semenyo.

You won question agenda?...In Agendaland we don't do facts only agenda

fredoooooo:

So what's your theory?

My theory is Inter Milan is broke

What's yours?

patrickmuf:

Vvd is not a bad defender but he does have the tendency to run away from dribbles. There's a reason why his aura defending style is a global meme.

Go back and watch the goal again. When Semenyo started to run at the Liverpool defence, the closest to track him was vvd, he ran away looking right and left like a kid that wants to cross a busy road. In that moment, there was a Liverpool player to vvd's left tracking that side of the pitch.

But on the right, Konate was the only one who was actually trying to engage Semenyo but he had two Bournemouth players to his right while there was no bornmouth player to vvd's left with even a Liverpool player tracking that side of the pitch. It's funny how you're trying to pin the blame on Konate who at that moment was tracking three players(Semenyo and the other two blue shirts on his right hand side) with virtually no support in sight. Vvd was partly at fault here.

Like I said he's a good defender but here is Millner calling him out after he was avoiding dribbles forcing this 40 year old EPL veteran to sacrifice himself as the vacuum cleaner.

Really ...
Inter made two offers already... Greed is the problem here .
Why are they responding now that Drogba , Eto and CAF petition them?
They still want to frustrate the guy
Our own yooseless legends all keep quayet , eto from cameroon is the one fighting for him

When that break started, it was just VVD and Konate. I watched the game.

Inter not meeting asking price, na simple sturvs. Isak going through the same thing

patrickmuf:

Then why blame only Konate who had zero support when vvd had one to his left. Konate was tracking Semenyo and two Bournemouth players to his right. What exactly is vvd's job at the back and why can't he be called out for his aura defending?

Agenda aside, you can't blame Konate without blaming vvd as well. In fact, vvd is 💯 responsible for that goal. Poor defending

Ibime:

It was crystal clear from the onset that the greed you termed asking price is the problem.

What's the greed in asking £43m for Lukman

Outtara friggin Django just moved from Bournemouth to Brentford for same price

Las las dem go settle

Okay.

So that other guy been dey post fake Stat for Florian wirtz

in the past two weeks , only you is still typing about Jackson.

You wake up, you type Jackson.

You eat, you type Jackson.

Ekitike has scored, you type Jackson. Small task of 20 non penalty goals still on table.

Thats one of the criteria he will meet as according to you, he is better.

Are you minding that insecure kid? It is now very obvious that his life revolves around Nairaland. If e never get my attention here, him body no dey rest.

Na the same person wey say this below... Fix attack. Period. Nothing concern us with anything wey happen for defence.

airmark:
You don't need any balancing rim, fix the attack. Period.

Silentgroper:
. I'm sure you saw isak .

I don't see Liverpool paying 150m

VVD is the most overrated defender of the 21st century

Enzo5:
When are we having this conversation
wirtz 150m
vs Bournemouth:

82 Minutes (Hooked)
0 Goals/Assists
0 Shots on Goal
0 Dribbles
16 Possessions Lost
7 Duels Lost

My agenda on wirtz go cook wella

FOUR goals to spell JOTA

Weldone Liverpool.

Silentgroper:
. They say expensive Enzo Fernandez started out like this ...



Cut him some slack, this is his first EPL match..

Enzo's first game was against Fulham and he made his debut like a boss

Silentgroper:
So that other guy been dey post fake Stat for Florian wirtz

how is it fake we everyone plus data saw that he lost duels, lost possessions and couldn't dribble past players and wasn't a threat to the post

https://metro.co.uk/2025/08/14/joe-cole-urges-chelsea-make-logical-signing-transfer-deadline-23914667/amp/

Even Joe Cole wants us to sign a goalkeeper, but Nateevs and Ireti would rather keep giving the chronic gambler confidence at the team’s expense.

Last season alone, the chronic gambler cost us at least 15 points, several of them from winning positions before he did what he does best and handed the game away. While he can occasionally prove to be a great shot-stopper, his howlers make it impossible for any side to challenge for the Premier League.

@Nateevs
Saw you stylishly doing a victory lap the other day. So tell me, what exactly are your expectations for Maresca this season?

Ballzproblem2:
Glad maresca refused to be a yes man,no set am up

as much as veiga is wrong, maresca had his part in that top and the board may want veiga to stay but I don't think veiga is a ccb

Despite all the warnings about garnacho. Chelsea fans will learn the hard way

Premier League is back 

2025/2026 Premier League predictions:

Golden Boot - Who finishes as the highest goal scorer this season? Salah won it last year but would Haaland reclaim his crown or would the new 9s at Arsenal, Man-U, Liverpool and Chelsea nick it?

Most assists - Which player would be the creative fulcrum of his team this season and rack up the most assists?

Best U21 player - Which player under 21 years would have a stellar year?

Best signing -

Biggest under achiever - Which Club would under achieve this season and fail to meet expectations?

Flop - Which player won't live up to expectations this season (can be new signing or current PL player that would have a very sub par season)

Title Winners - Which team would end up winning 2025/2026 Premier League
