According to BBC reporter Nizaar Kinsella, the reporter wrote a column about Chelsea midfielder Lavia's performance against Liverpool in the Premier League last week.

It is reported that in the 3-1 victory over Liverpool at Stamford Bridge last Sunday, 21-year-old Lavia had no turnover in his 23 passes in his 78 minutes of his appearance.

When Lavia came off, Liverpool's away fans mocked him and shouted: "You could have come here to win the league championship" and so on. This may also be a recognition of the former Southampton player's performance in this game, as the Reds missed the opportunity to sign the Belgian midfielder in 2023.

And he also proved his resistance to pressure against Liverpool, good at taking the ball from the defender's feet and passing through the opponent's defense through the pass. Since returning against Everton last weekend, his appearance seems to have improved the offensive performance of Chelsea two midfielders Palmer and Enzo Fernandez on the offensive end, and also relieved some of Kessedo's defensive pressure.

Lavia's only problem everyone knows - it's his physical condition. His inability to play two games a week has resulted in him not registering for the UEFA League league stage this season.

However, he has played 741 minutes this season, which is much higher than his 32 minutes in the 2023-24 season - but he has not played a full game in two years at Chelsea. However, the BBC said that Lavia will be carefully managed, but it is understood that Chelsea coach Maresca is optimistic that the midfielder's health record will continue to improve.

As for the taunts of Liverpool fans, Lavia seems to appreciate this, because as a kid who has been supporting Chelsea since he was a child, he likes to be a part of the newly rebuilt team.
