(Images): “If it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t be here” – Silva names the reason he joined Chelsea

Thiago Silva made his Chelsea debut this week and it was a real sight for sore eyes for Chelsea fans.

The world class composure he has on the ball, the way he glides around the pitch and plays with so much elegance, is just a real joy to behold.

But there is one man responsible for Silva’s arrival at Chelsea – Frank Lampard.

Silva admitted in an interview on the BBC (that you can see the screenshots for below), “If it wasn’t for him I wouldn’t be here” talking about Lampard believing in him.

Lampard’s pull power is unmatchable in this game right now.
