Thiago Silva has only just come on for Chelsea β meaning heβs excused from the rubbish we saw for the first hour of the game β and he immediately made an impact by scoring from a corner.
It was a confident run to the near post, a great leap (especially at his age!) a clean connection and ultimately an easy goal.
That should win us the game, and we can now move on to thinking about how on earth we get good performances out of this team.
