Thiago Silva tricked
The Brazilian defender has been the epitome of calm, class and cool in a tumultuous and difficult season. Silva was no different against West Ham on Saturday afternoon. The veteran, fresh from signing a deal to extend his Chelsea stay by another year, even showed a turn of pace to chase down Said Benrahma and execute a finely timed sliding challenge.
However, the trip to the London Stadium exposed a rare moment that Silva was caught unawares. The former AC Milan and PSG star was among the first players to emerge into the tunnel from the changing rooms and lent against the wall as he awaited his teammates.
