Chelsea’s Axel Disasi and Levi Colwill name toughest attackers they have faced this season, ft. Mohamed Salah

Chelsea star duo Axel Disasi and Levi Colwill reveal the toughest attackers they faced this season

This past weekend, Levi Colwill and Axel Disasi sat down for a double interview with Chelsea TV, reflecting on their season so far. The dynamic defensive duo shared insights on their experiences, including their thoughts on the toughest attackers they’ve faced this season.

Having joined Chelsea in the summer, both Disasi and Colwill have navigated through a season filled with ups and downs alongside their teammates. Despite the challenges, the two defenders expressed satisfaction with the growth of their partnership on the pitch. Throughout the campaign, they’ve showcased promising performances, demonstrating their potential to anchor Chelsea’s defence for years to come.

A sturdy defense and a cohesive centre-back pairing are fundamental elements for any championship-winning team. With Disasi and Colwill forming a formidable defensive partnership, Chelsea’s backline appears poised for success, even in the absence of seasoned veteran Thiago Silva. As they continue to develop and strengthen their bond, the future looks bright for Chelsea’s defensive line.


Listening to Disasi and Colwill independently identify the toughest attackers they’ve faced this season was truly intriguing, especially considering they were unaware of each other’s responses. Their mentions of renowned footballing stars came as no surprise, highlighting the caliber of talent they’ve encountered on the pitch.

The fact that both defenders singled out some of the biggest names in the sport speaks volumes about the level of competition they’ve faced throughout the season. It’s a testament to the quality of football in the Premier League and the challenges that defenders like Disasi and Colwill must navigate week in and week out.

Colwill went for Liverpool star Mohamed Salah on the opening day of the 2023–24 season. Colwill was at left back then, perhaps for the first time in the Premier League. Chelsea drew 1-1 with Liverpool in the game. Colwill said:

“I felt really exposed, It was a game to grow from.”

Disasi and Colwill: Chelsea’s dynamic duo

Disasi took Son Heung-min, another elite attacker in the Premier League. Son is a standout forward for Tottenham Hotspur who is renowned for his two-footedness, finishing speed, and play-linking abilities. Disasi said:

“He’s strong, he’s quick.”

Colwill’s journey from the Academy to the senior squad exemplifies Chelsea’s commitment to nurturing and promoting young talent within the club. His seamless integration into the first-team setup underscores the quality of coaching and development at Cobham.

On the other hand, Disasi’s arrival from Monaco brought a wealth of experience and defensive prowess to Chelsea’s backline. His solid performances and consistency have solidified his position as a linchpin in the team’s defensive structure, demonstrating the astuteness of Chelsea’s recruitment strategy.

Their bond extends beyond the confines of the pitch, as Colwill and Disasi share a close relationship off the field as well. Through the trials and tribulations of this season’s challenges, they’ve learned and grown together, strengthening their connection both as teammates and as friends.
