the world's greatest defender has named 3 people he considers his equals. van dijk varane thiago silva I'd no idea we had 2 of the world's best centre halves at our club. We should be honoured
this is what fame and fortune does to you, makes you ****ing deluded he is no different to musicians thinking they are so great or actors/actresses etc to be fair.
To be fair to Lovren, he only said that the World Cup showed him to be one of the best defenders, not the best. Still a stupid thing to say, but it has been blown up out of proportion a bit.
"I am immortal, I have inside me blood of kings I have no rival, No man can be my equal Take me to the future of your world" That's what lovren hears every time he takes to the pitch. then the quickening comes.
There's nothing wrong with being confident or even over confident on the field of play, in fact there's a lot to be said in its favour. However, unless you have the skill to equal or better that confidence, you just come across as delusional. Maybe one day his skill will catch up with his outpourings, the sooner the better but until then he's happy and keeping Mo happy and that's keeping us happy .....
If he said equals, maybe he just doesn't rate those three I can only assume he rates Gomez higher too
He really would be better keeping his gob shut (like a lot of people), but I guess he's good for a quote so the hacks are all over him and anything he says.
If Lovern is that good how come France put so many goals passed his country in the world cup final in Russia ?.Bullshit.
In his defence - no pun intended - he only came out with the 'best defender' line after getting regularly slated by all and sundry. If I've got the timing right, it was after playing in the CL final and on the way to the WC final.
If we win at Arsenal on Saturday and he puts in a Man of the Match performance at the back I won't care what he's been saying.
Yep, Gomez is the more assured CB already and still learning his trade. I don't mind Lovren, I think he's decent, but you always know that a major mistake is never far away. #nojinx
Whilst his comment is deluded, I love the fact he called out Ramos. Ramos is a world class footballer and leader, but he’s a good defender. Nothing more
