Silva Committed to the Pochettino Revolution
It’s been a tough season for all connected with Chelsea, as the club finished in 12th position. One of the few bright spots for the Blues this season has been the consistency and class shown by their 38-year-old evergreen defender Silva. The Brazilian’s performances have been impressive for such a woefully underperforming team.

Despite the challenging year experienced by all connected with Chelsea, the Brazilian defender has spoken about his desire to help the club improve their fortunes next season. “Obviously, this year didn’t go well at all, but all we can do is hope for better next season.” The quotes reported by Romano also highlight the great relationship Silva has with the Chelsea fans. “Me and Chelsea fans… it was love at first sight. I feel really happy here. I’m really proud to be at Chelsea.” Having a player of Silva’s ilk will be a massive shot in the arm for Pochettino, as he will need to create an identity in the squad that has been severely lacking this season.
