Thiago Silva injury threatens chance to end Wembley hoodoo with Chelsea

The 39-year-old has played in three finals for Chelsea in the national stadium, but they have all ended in defeat: the FA Cup final against Leicester in 2021, the Carabao Cup and FA Cup final against Liverpool in 2022, all decided by penalty shootouts.

Silva’s groin issue, which Mauricio Pochettino termed as “minor” in the previous game against Crystal Palace, kept him out of the Premier League match against Manchester City on Saturday.

Axel Disasi and Levi Colwill started at center back at the Etihad Stadium in his place, and they performed admirably in the 1-1 tie.

If Chelsea doesn’t make it to the FA Cup final, Silva’s contract ends at the end of this season, therefore the Carabao Cup may be his final opportunity to win a trophy at Wembley.

Chelsea player is “back in the mood,” according to a BBC expert, making him a potentially contentious starter in the cup final

The last time Chelsea perfоrmed well enоugh in the Premier League tо have a player named tо Garth Crооk’s team оf the week feels like mоnths, and in reality, it might actually be mоnths. Despite the fact that it might nоt be whо yоu expected, we succeeded this week. The central defensive duo of Axel Disasi and Levi Colwill were widely regarded as Chelsea’s stars of the day, though Malo Gusto also received a lot of praise for his efforts. However, Crooks targeted Raheem Sterling, the goal scorer. In addition, he said that “Mauricio Pochettino recognised his player was back in the mood and started him at Manchester City,” after the winger had turned the tide of Monday night’s match. Though he ultimately managed to score the goal that put us ahead, Sterling—who often combines inspiration and frustration—deserves more praise than he has received from certain supporters. We wonder whether on Sunday he’ll still be feeling the same way?
