Leboeuf opens up and questions if Chelsea signing Silva has the character to shine in Premier League
Chelsea icon Frank Leboeuf has questioned whether Thiago Silva boasts the “character” to shine in the Premier League.
We have been looking for a leader to come in and help shore up that back-line this transfer window, and despite being linked with some world class defenders, we decided to make the bargain move to sign up Silva on a free deal.
Many are sceptical about just what he can bring to the club, and although leboeuf has claimed that he believes Silva is a fantastic player, he does have some concerns about whether or not Silva can be a success in the Premier League.
The ex-Blues centre-half as quoted on GOAL: “He’s definitely a fantastic player.
“We have been talking about character – he’s been questioned a lot at Paris Saint-Germain and also after the 2014 World Cup about non-character, that the guy is crying very easily and is maybe why PSG didn’t win the Champions League.
“He has been criticised a lot and I’ve never been very nice to him. For example, Marquinhos is stronger mentally than him, but he is definitely a fantastic player.
“He is not done yet, he is still in good shape and he will fit into the Premier League for sure.”
We are happy with the signing of Silva and believe he will be a huge success in the Premier League.
