Colwill has spoken about how he's enjoying life under Maresca in a recent interview with the club's media. He said: "The gaffer plays similar to a chess game. Every piece needs to be in the right place to set up a move, set up a goal. It’s a lot more demanding mentally. I always need to be aware of where I am on the pitch and how I can help the team move up the pitch. That is the main thing. The level of concentration is crazy compared to other managers, I would say. I enjoy it and it can tap into my strengths. He’s been really good with me personally and everyone in the team. I’m really understanding the way he wants to play very fast."
