“I think Levi Colwill is better than Trevah Chalobah by a country mile” – Huddersfield fan pundit offers verdict on Chelsea man

Huddersfield Town continue to operate in the Championship play-offs and will be striving to secure a spot in the much-desired top-six as the season progresses. 

After a difficult season last time out, a mix of progress and successful recruitment has been integral to a change of fortunes at the John Smith’s Stadium. 

Perhaps standing out as one of the best bits of business in the Championship was Huddersfield’s loan signing of Chelsea’s Levi Colwill. 

The 18-year-old has excelled at centre-back for the Terriers this season, appearing 20 times in the league thus far but is currently out of action through injury. 

Issuing his verdict on Colwill’s progression at Huddersfield, and what is in store for the exciting 18-year-old in the future, FLW’s Huddersfield Town fan pundit Graeme Rayner said: “I think Levi Colwill will play for Chelsea and England in the next two or three years. We have seen players that have come on loan to us, go on and do that. 

“We’ve had Emile Smith-Rowe come for half a season and was good, but wasn’t as good as Levi Colwill, although obviously in different positions. 

“We also saw Trevah Chalobah from Chelsea come, wasn’t that impressive then had a season on loan in France, and then this season Thomas Tuchel likes him and he plays relatively regularly in the first team at Chelsea. 

“I think Levi Colwill is better than Trevah Chalobah by a country mile in my opinion. He’s got everything at his disposal in terms of tools for the job and he seems to be a class act.

“I would be amazed if by 2024 if he hasn’t played for England and isn’t a regular for Chelsea and I would suggest that they should build their defence around him, he is that good.”
