My people, make una gather! As we dey enter the 2025-26 Premier League season, e don clear say Liverpool go face wahala to keep their crown. Na 19 teams dey jostle to carry the title, and the tension no fit chop small!
Since August 15, na so the league don dey waka, no wahala go stop until dem crown the champion. Dis season, we dey see new faces from Sunderland, Burnley, and Leeds United wey don enter the top flight to replace Southampton, Leicester, and Ipswich Town.
Now, the big question be: who go dey sparkle for this season? Whether any of the big boys go dey fall like Manchester United and Tottenham last season, or we go see underdogs dey rise like Nottingham Forest wey shock dem!
The table dey shine with Arsenal leading the pack with 49 points, hot on their tail na Manchester City and Aston Villa with 43 points each. Liverpool don dey manage to hold ground with 35 points, but e no be sweet vibes for dem as dem dey hear noise from Brentford and Newcastle wey dey hot on their heels.
Make we touch on VAR matter wey dey scatter everywhere. E be like say VAR don turn to Virtual Agitation Reality this season! The referees dey face kritik wey no go fit end, as dem dey make errors like say dem no sabi wetin dem dey do.
According to KMI panel, dem don report say VAR errors don increase this season. Na 13 mistakes don show face, which be 3 pass last season. But make we clear, e be like say we don get plenty errors with this technology wey still dey find im feet!
Chelsea don enjoy benediction from VAR errors as dem don benefit 3 times dis season. Remember the goal wey dem disallowed for Fulham? Na wetin no make sense! Newcastle join the party with 2 errors in their favor too. But no be all teams wey dey smile; Manchester United dey carry heavy wahala as VAR don dey dash dem error wey dey pain dem.
Arsenal fit dey thank VAR for some of dem scores, especially wey Saliba escape penalty for Everton match—na wetin dem for call ‘mistake di ref suppose no fit make’. E dey clear say if VAR wan dey sabi for this EPL, dem must step up dem game!
As we dey shine eye for dis season, we dey look for who go rise and who go fall. Coventry City dey eye promotion from Championship, and Wrexham don dey make waves too. Na we go see wetin go happen by the end of season.
So my Naija pipo, make we sip our beer and continue to watch the drama wey dey unfold for Premier League! The wahala never finish, and we dey ready for more excitement!
