The Brazil star defender stressed that he can only perform effectively when he has a four defender squad at the back as he last played a 3 defender squad when he was 16.

David Luiz however, disclosed he stayed put at Stamford Bridge owing to the arrival of new coach, Sarri Maurizio.

This is because the ex Italian coach prefers a 4 defender squad which favours David Luiz.

So far, Sarri have played the Brazil international in almost all of their game since arriving at Stamford Bridge.
