And to think PSG signed Ramos on huge wages and has yet to start 😂 Ramos is not even fit to lace the boots of Thiago Silva's shadow. ramos is done on the top level. Everybody could see as much when we played them clowns. The moment Kai of all people nudged him off the ball he went to ground with a look of pure desperation. Kai then proceeded to make step right over the ailing bug corpse on the ground not even looking down. That moment Ramos should have recognised his future as a footballer would remain in the dust on that very pitch. If the guy had any self respect he would have ended his career that day instead of dragging his undead legs to Paris to be a mascot Edited November 25, 2021 by Magic Lamps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,908 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Nice. Good enough that any class CB we replace Rüdiger with will slot right in comfortably. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superblue 6,372 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Great news. Hopefully more will follow now. Don't know why but in recent days I'm starting to feel slightly more confident that Rudiger may re-sign. I think his preference would be to stay here as he realises what he's got here as a bit of a cult hero, and the system suiting him perfectly. I feel the opportunity for him to talk with other clubs may be more of a negotiation tactic with us.

chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Thiago Silva, what a man, what a player. The amount of quality this guy has, so happy hes staying another year! bigbluewillie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbluewillie 1,930 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 (edited) Lukaku read this and see how you should conduct yourself: Chelsea have extended Thiago Silva's contract by one year until the end of the 2022-23 season. The 37-year-old Brazilian defender has made 22 appearances for the Blues so far this campaign. Silva started at the heart of defence as Chelsea beat Manchester City to win the Champions League in May 2021. He has also scored four goals since joining the London club on a free transfer from Paris St-Germain in August 2020. Silva told Chelsea's official website that playing for the club is a "real pleasure". "I never thought I would play for three years here in this great club so I'm very happy to stay for another season," said Silva. "To play here with Chelsea is a real pleasure, I'm going to give everything to keep playing at this level in the most important league in the world." Silva won his 100th cap for Brazil in October.

I don't see how we retain Silva and then play him in a back 4. Even if those 3 defenders leave, Tuchel could just buy their replacements and stick with a back 3. The caveat maybe being he could get defenders who are comfortable in both systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silva recently played with a back four during Copa America, i'm sure he will be fine as long as we have fast CB beside him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Just now, Blues Forever said: Silva recently played with a back four during Copa America, i'm sure he will be fine as long as we have fast CB beside him. But international football is different to the Premier League. Plus, it's not even just about having a fast CB beside Silva. It's also about whether Tuchel can still play the pressing game effectively for example. Can we still press high effectively with Silva in a back 4 and when he's more exposed compared to a back 3? Just like those 3 other players you mentioned, Silva's best work for us has come in a back 3. Big question mark over him in a back 4 with us.

Tuchel will find a way to make it work, Silva is still class in a back four whether with Brazil or PSG. bigbluewillie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
