Levi Colwill is cool under pressure. The Chelsea defender has a smooth way of handling opposition strikers and does not mind answering awkward questions. Fresh from signing a new long-term deal, he does not hesitate when he is asked whether Chelsea have any chance of winning trophies after last season’s struggles.

“Why not?” the 20-year-old shoots back, barely missing a beat. He is not interested in the past. “It’s a different season with different players. There’s a different feeling in the changing room, so I think we can do anything we want.”
