Chelsea centre-back Thiago Silva, who is old and strong, has been excellent lately, especially in his previous game against Tottenham, where he excelled both offensively and defensively. Brazilian star Rivaldo gave this high praise in an interview with the media.
Rivaldo said: "It is great to see Thiago Silva performing so well for Chelsea in the best leagues in the world. Today's players can extend their careers to a longer period of time. Another player in his 30s who has played well in recent years is Dani Alves. ”
'Given the form and level Silva has shown in this level of the Premier League, I wouldn't be surprised if I saw him in the Qatar World Cup next year.
"His experience will be a fortune for the team. He's used to facing the best strikers in the world, and if it comes to some decisive moments at next year's World Cup, it's clear that it's crucial for Brazil. ”
'I think who Brazilian coach Tite ultimately brings with him will also depend on the new centre-back who may emerge this season, but I think it should be very gratifying to see Thiago Silva in such good form and possible to play against his opponents on the stage at the highest level next year.'
