Patrice Evra explains the 'big key' for Chelsea to win the Premier League this season

Patrice Evra thinks that Thiago Silva is the key player who can lead Chelsea to Premier League title glory this season. Silva was among the several players that the Blues signed during the summer transfer window. He joined Frank Lampard's side on a free transfer and has so far made 8 appearances and scored one goal. "Chelsea are back in the game," Evra said on Sky Sports. "I remember that bad game against Manchester United, it was a really boring game. "But they kept the clean sheet and now they start winning, scoring goals, winning games. "Thiago Silva will be the big key for their defence." "It's really weird. To be fair, playing without fans I think makes a big difference," he added. "Tottenham, they're going to be a good challenger. My only worry is about the bench when they lose key players like Harry Kane, Son [Heung-min]. "Leicester are playing good football as well. We don't know who is going to win the league this year because sometimes you watch games, they look like training sessions, sometimes they are like big games. So it's going to be really difficult. "So I don't know, it's difficult this year to say who is going to win the league. "And of course Liverpool [can] but it's really hard for me to say that, even if I have so much respect for them." Chelsea are currently 3rd in the league table 2 points behind Tottenham and Liverpool, who are first and second respectively. source - Express / Join us on Telegram
