Thiago Silva recently gave an official interview to the Premier League, where he talked about the toughest opponents and the players he would most like to work with. Speaking about the toughest opponents, the Chelsea centre-back said: 'There are some. Cristiano Ronaldo, at the peak of his career. When Messi and Neymar played in Barcelona, we faced each other a lot. They're one of the toughest players I've ever faced. ”
When asked who he would most like to partner with, he replied: 'I would choose John Terry because I'm at Chelsea and we have a good relationship. It feels good every time I see him, he's a legend for the club and English football. ”
Thiago Silva was also asked about the captains who had inspired him in some way. The defender was the captain's armband of the Brazilian national team during the 2014, 2018 and 2022 World Cups.
"Lucio is important to me," he said. He is very demanding of himself, like a fighter, always trying to win. His performance and the way he prepared for the game resonated with me. When I arrived in Italy, I had great teachers. First with Maldini and then with Nesta, I improved a lot. ”
My sister-in-law has had an incredible career, winning a lot of titles, and when it comes to the most important titles for him, he says: "All the titles are special, aren't they? Every time I win a trophy, I feel like it's the first time, and if I had to pick one special, it would be the Copa do Brasil with Fluminense in 2007. ”
