'Nowhere near where I'd like to be' - Chelsea's Levi Colwill delivers brutal self-assessment as defender tries to live up to Blues' new 'winners only' mentality

<p><a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/chelsea-2024-25-season-ratings-every-player-ranked/blt66d5926f50de3627" target="_blank">Colwill has been a regular at the heart of defence for Enzo Maresca as well as featuring in England squads throughout the 2024-25 campaign</a>. He believes he can do better, however, and admits he is striving for huge improvement.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Colwill told reporters<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/jul/02/levi-colwill-takes-on-central-role-as-chelsea-seek-winners-only-mentality" target="_blank"><em></em></a>: "I am nowhere near where I would like to be. Defending one-v-one has been tough, but I think I’ve proved that I’m getting a bit better. I’m good at times when I’m trying to make passes and there are other times where I’ve been a bit lazy. We all know how big this club is and how the culture of the club has always been to win. We're just trying to reinforce that to the young boys, to the boys coming in, that this club is for winners only. That’s what we need to strive towards."</p>

WHAT COLWILL SAID

<p>The club hope several of their best young players are beginning to develop the snarl and mentality that defined the era of John Terry, Frank Lampard and Didier Drogba in the noughties. Colwill insists following in their footsteps is "what we want to do".</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Colwill is set to start again as Chelsea take on Palmeiras in the quarter-final of the Club World Cup on Saturday, with the Blues in with a decent chance of reaching the final if they play their cards right.</p>
