"There's no player like him in the world!" — Thiago Silva praises his Chelsea teammate.

Thiago Silva has reserved special praise for his Chelsea teammate who is very much peculiar in his own ways, on and off the pitch.

Chelsea veteran, Thiago Silva has praised his Chelsea teammate, N'Golo Kanté as "unique", with no other player in the world matching with his unique qualities.

The Blues would return to Champions League action tonight in a return leg against AC Milan at San Siro and on the eve of matchday, Thiago spoke to the press on his Chelsea teammate, N'Golo Kanté.

He said as quoted by Football.London:

"It's not easy for a player like N'Golo to have an injury at an important time of the season. For him to recover, be back and be a protagonist is not easy at all. I am very happy to have had the opportunity to meet and play with him. He is a special person, rather unique. Probably nobody else in the world is maybe like him."

Kanté has not featured in any of the Blues' games across all competitions this season, since sustaining an injury against Tottenham. Thiago Silva has wished the Chelsea midfielder quick recovery, as he is pivotal to both the Chelsea team and France National team ahead of the coming games and the World Cup respectively:

"So for sure, he is going through a difficult period, and I wish him the best to recover as soon as possible. With Kante, we will be much stronger as we used to be when he was with us." Thiago Silva added.

Graham Potter has succeeded in these three areas where Tuchel failed.

OPINION: Graham Potter has succeeded in these three areas where Tuchel failed. The Blues were back in Premier League action on Saturday, and had sealed a 3-0 victory over Wolves at the Bridge. The game had seen goals come from the Blues' attacking options, something which had rarely been seen in the Tuchel era. Not just that, there were noticeable changes and improvement in team set up that were not seen under the former German Boss. All of which will be highlighted below. Firstly, the handing of debut to Chelsea's signing, Carney Chukwuemeka. Graham Potter's choice to hand one of his starlets a debut demonstrates the trust that he has in the young players at Stamford Bridge that can help him through a tricky run. It's harder than it seems to just trust the youth though. Tuchel struggled to fully implement the pathway desired and was always focused on the here and now, the short term. He felt warmth with experience. Potter already looks to have brough...
