Most guys his age focus on their clubb but he's still jetting off for internationals. What is he made of?

He's made no secret of the fact that playing in the next world cup is the main thing still driving him.

After that the plan was to return to Brazil and finish in the league there.

See if we can change his mind for a year or 2.

One of the best decisions we made in recent times was bringing him in

Player of the tournament, player of the final match

Meant a lot to the wonderful Thiago and his family.

So who you going to listen to, the living legend or Craig Bitter Burley.

That man is really stacking up the trophees and awards! One of my big favourites of the current squad.

Thiago, every day of the week.

Thank goodness we’ve got him. All credit to Frankie Lampard for signing him.

What a player, just a shame we didnt get him earlier in his career. 

Interesting reading the first few pages of this thread...😬

 

 

Still think his goal line clearance v Juventus is the best goal line clearance I have ever seen.

Makes you wonder why we throw around so much money when our best signings this decade have been the ones we signed for lesser amounts & in his case, for free.

IF he comes, he'll be a more of a stopgap slash playing defensive coach than a miracle cure.

Well, it turns out that he was the miracle cure! Take a look at first couple of pages. Just shows how wrong everybody were about Silva.

To be fair, I don't think many were against signing him, we all knew how good he was, we were just cautious because of his age and his injuries at the time. It was also really odd how PSG were perfectly happy to let him go.

Situations like we have seen with Thiago Silva are very rare, almost unheard of.

He’s managed to make his way into my favourite Chelsea players ever after such a short period of time, he’s just brilliant

When he made that block and then came running out like a madman and got his head on it. Goosebumps. 

 

I just wish I could have seen him and JT in one team....

So does JT, has said so a few times.

Another outstanding game from him last night v Lille.

 

 

 

 

I have so much respect to Ronaldo, Ibrahimovic, Buffon, Messi, Joaquin, but sometimes I feel that Thiago Silva doesn't get enough credit.

37 years old! One of the best CB's in the best league in the world, leading the defense of European Champion club, proving game after game that he's top class defender.

I just hope he will keep this form as long as he can because when I see him play, I don't feel his age, I feel his passion, leadership, defending ability and world class player.
