Levi Colwill

Colwill won't play Tuesday against Tottenham because of load management following his recent return from a knee injury, with interim coach Calum McFarlane saying "We didn't want to risk him. We couldn't afford to risk him tonight, but that would be expected. That would've been the plan from the beginning."

Colwill (knee) is being managed carefully after his return from injury and won't start Tuesday's clash against Tottenham, according to coach Calum McFarlane. "We need to be careful with Levi. He's obviously off the back of a very serious injury and has performed well in those two games. We'll see how he looks today, how he reports, and we'll make a decision on that. It's been great to have him back, great for English football as well. I think we've got a really talented, really high-potential player here. Injuries are a part of it, and he's shown really good mental strength and character to come through that and perform away at Anfield and in an FA Cup final. So we're really, really excited about Levi and he's added a lot to the team, not just on the pitch, but off the pitch as well. It's been a brilliant two games for him, and hopefully, he can finish the season strongly."

Colwill (knee) has trained well this week and could feature in Saturday's FA Cup final against Manchester City, according to coach Calum McFarlane. "Levi's had a really good rehab and, before he played his first game back for us against Nottingham Forest, he played for the Under-21s on two or three occasions. So, it's been a really good training week for Levi and he was exceptional against Liverpool. That speaks a lot about him, being able to produce that sort of performance after that time out, and at a really difficult place. He has trained well this week, and we're looking forward to potentially having him on Saturday as well."

Colwill (knee) makes his first Premier League start of the season for Saturday's clash against Liverpool, marking a significant milestone in his return from the serious knee injury he sustained in pre-season, the club posted.

Colwill (knee) has completed a full week of training and could start Saturday's clash against Liverpool, according to coach Calum McFarlane. "Levi has trained a full week with us, and so has Reece, so it's really positive with those two. We've still got another session before facing Liverpool, but both trained fully today and we're hopeful."
