Noni Madueke Praises Levi Colwill and Wesley Fofana’s Defensive Partnership as Chelsea Prepare for Liverpool Clash
Noni Madueke has been vocal about his appreciation for his Chelsea teammates Levi Colwill and Wesley Fofana, highlighting their contrasting playing styles, which he believes complement each other well in defense.
Colwill has returned to his preferred center-back position, while Fofana has been a crucial presence in the backline. Madueke pointed out that Colwill’s style is more of a sweeper, focused on control and passing, while Fofana plays on the front foot, aggressively carrying the ball forward.
He emphasized that this balance between Colwill’s composure and Fofana’s assertiveness has been beneficial for Chelsea’s defensive stability.

Wesley Fofana will be unavailable for Chelsea’s upcoming match against Liverpool due to a suspension after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season in the 1-1 draw against Nottingham Forest.
In his absence, summer signing Tosin Adarabioyo is expected to step in as Fofana’s replacement. Adarabioyo, who joined Chelsea from Fulham, has already shown his potential by putting in a solid performance during Chelsea’s 3-0 win against West Ham, making five clearances and winning two ground duels.
Manager Enzo Maresca regards Adarabioyo as one of the leaders in the Chelsea dressing room, which could be another reason to start him against Liverpool, who are currently leading the Premier League.
While Axel Disasi and Benoit Badiashile are also options, Adarabioyo’s experience and leadership qualities may give him the edge in what promises to be a crucial fixture.
