Huddersfield are having a nice season in the Championship, and they’re up to 6th after beating Nottingham Forest last night.
Levi Colwill, the centre back on loan from Chelsea, has been a huge part of that success, and despite his tender years he’s been a colossus at the back for the Terriers.
Michael Hefele on Levi Colwill: 'When you work with him everyday, he's not 18 years old – you think he's 26 or 27, how he's listening and how is work ethic is. His quality on the pitch – calmness, left foot, playmaking – is outstanding. I've never seen it in an 18-year-old.'

His fellow Huddersfield player Michael Hefele had some unbelievably flattering quotes about the youngster who plays alongside him:
“When you work with him everyday, he’s not 18 years old – you think he’s 26 or 27, how he’s listening and how is work ethic is. His quality on the pitch – calmness, left foot, playmaking – is outstanding. I’ve never seen it in an 18-year-old.”
We’ve heard similar things from other teammates of his who have been astonished by his maturity and his quality. This loan has been a roaring success already, and we really hope that Levi and his team keep up their good form and make it to the playoffs.
He is set for a spell in the Premier League next year at this rate – the only question is whether that’s with a promoted Huddersfield, another team towards the bottom – or perhaps even with Chelsea.
