Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has explained the reason why Levi Colwill gets more play time in recent weeks than Ben Chilwell.
In a pre-match press conference ahead of Wednesday’s game against Brighton, Pochettino explained the absence of Ben Chilwell in some games, and why he uses the Englishman as a left winger.
He further added that the perfect form of youngster Levi Colwill has also been a factor.
He explained: “I am so happy with Levi in the way that he is playing and he has shown character and I think he provides the team with a very good balance.
“Always there is the expectation, of what we expect from the players. We were using Chilly maybe not in his best position, because he Was a winger. That is why after we started to play with a winger, like Misha when he recovered or maybe Sterling, in that position, our thought was to keep Levi in the position because he is doing well.”
