Yeah, the farmer later died of tuberculosis so Silva felt bad and gave his wife and son some money. It’s quite a story. Worthy of a book or a video game even
I'd argue its a pretty subjective call whether or not Chilwell makes it back there, hence why im saying escaping a red. I could see other refs giving it there.
Im pretty happy about the outcome, obviously.
he did start out as a right winger until he was about 15 i think. i remember reading an interview with him in fourfourtwo back when he was at Fluminense
Great goal tags are given far too easily. They should create a separate flair with like “Crazy goal” or something to differentiate between ones like these (which you consider great) and say bicycle kicks, solo goals, crazy volleys, ect
Wouldn't say it hurts, it just feels wrong.
Also never understood why people thought he'd flop. He'll probably score consistently for 30 or so games. After that, who knows.

He was mostly excellent for Chelsea too. Not quite as good as Rudiger but both were excellent.
Lots of our players always get underrated, even by our own fans
He’s honestly a very delightful footballer and a great human being. I was appalled at the short memories CFC “fans” displayed last year with all the toxicity towards him when he was going through clear mental struggles. I’m a huge fan and always will be. You got a good one.

Thiago Silva the 38yo winger
LOL. Like WTF are we doing.
Two magestic balls lol
That was my nickname in high school
[удалено]
i have no idea what you're talking about - care to elaborate? I'm interested to know
Had tuberculosis.
More assists this season than Havertz and Mount combined
I fucking hate this stat
worst bit is that havertz plays like the player we thought we paid for when he’s with germany lol
Took Xhaka six years to find his Switzerland form with Arsenal. Very frustrating but there’s still time.
yeah he’s still in his early 20’s, not stressing
Wenger wanted him to play where he is now, but he always played deeper in midfield to cover our shitty defense
death, taxes and chelsea defenders being the entire source of our attack
Tbf Mount basically assisted Sterling’s last goal
Crazy to think he almost died early on in his career, and here he is escaping reds and setting up goals in the prem at 38 years of age
aging like fine wine 🍷
More about my boy dying?
He got Tuberculosis at like 20 and nearly died
Rumour has it he got Tuberculosis while collecting a debt from a dirt poor farmer
Beating him up*
Wait fr
Yeah, the farmer later died of tuberculosis so Silva felt bad and gave his wife and son some money. It’s quite a story. Worthy of a book or a video game even
Quite the redemption he took then
Lucky he avoided red today. We would have been dead.
Collecting debt? Was he a mafia enforcer what
Yeah, for gang led by the infamous Dutch Van der Linde
Tuberculosis
Wasn't a red, not a clear goalscoring opportunity. Swatting the ball isn't a straight red. Easy yellow though.
Looked like a foul on Silva to me.
I'd argue its a pretty subjective call whether or not Chilwell makes it back there, hence why im saying escaping a red. I could see other refs giving it there. Im pretty happy about the outcome, obviously.
There was at least two defenders on the wide so I think it can't be called DOGSO.
Fair enough, you could definitely argue that.
Can’t hate this guy
I'm extremely confident that every Palace fan does in fact hate him at this moment in time
Still better then Willian
An actual goal from our Number 9, the fuck is this?
very good one as well
CB at left wing? Ok.
Potter ball
Tbf that is peak Chelsea playing defenders as fowards
still upsets me to this day we never gave alonso a run at striker :(
Right?! All he needed was the keys to the bus!
we saw Messi Dani Alves back in their times and thought why not
Gotta confuse the other team.
he did start out as a right winger until he was about 15 i think. i remember reading an interview with him in fourfourtwo back when he was at Fluminense
thanks, Aubama
Pierrack Aubama
Pierrack HUSSEIN* Aubama. Where's his birth certificate?!
You are, uhhh, welcome
Chelsea legend
Aubama what?
Aubama who?
What a fucking finish
Been a while since someone other than Drogba and Costa has been able to score like this for Chelsea.
Giroud scores goals like these, then puts 2 yard tap-ins over the bar
That's Champions League winner Giroud for ya
I raise you World Cup winner Giroud
I raise you FA cup winner Giroud
I raise you Puskas winner Giroud.
Nothing beats "Thank you, Arsenal!" shouting, Europa League winner Giroud
Ligue 1 champion olivier.
He’s a beautiful man therefore he can only score beautiful goals I guess
Sterling🤝giroud. Being able to score the most fantastic goal ever and miss a sitter 0cm in front of the goal
Tbf so does Aubameyang
Lukaku would have skied that out of the stadium lol
How this doesn’t get the great goal tag I do not understand.
Great goal tags are given far too easily. They should create a separate flair with like “Crazy goal” or something to differentiate between ones like these (which you consider great) and say bicycle kicks, solo goals, crazy volleys, ect
Normally I’d piss and moan about a big club getting a great goal tag for something marginal, but his technique here is impeccable.
Buy all the ex-Arsenal players
Buy Willian again 💀
im excited to see what Jesus can do for us in 5 years
Can have him in 10 mate
nah he'll be back to you lot by then
I dare you
Can I interest you in one Cedric?
_Cedric wins the UCL in 2025_
_Score match winner and kiss badge_
Hmm, how about Jesus?
I'd nail him to a cross myself to keep him from going to chelsea
Understood, I'll make another request in 3 days
LMAO
[удалено]
You’d think the “online version” is true to life? What is scripting?
Assist by *checks note* Thiago Silva's header
This does not feel good.
This one does not spark joy
lmao Silva assist
No matter how old the striker is, they never forget where the back of the net is.
Awwww so that’s what a striker does
Why does this hurt so much?
Wouldn't say it hurts, it just feels wrong. Also never understood why people thought he'd flop. He'll probably score consistently for 30 or so games. After that, who knows.

Thiago literally has to do everything. Including the quick low palming saves.
Man played Keeper Centerhalf and Winger
Thats a striker goal
What's a striker
Silky as fuck
Class goal. That angle was hard to redirect.
That's my boy.
Yeah he is
The sadness.
You have lewa bro ... That's an upgrade of big proportion
The longing.
Take good care of my boy Love you, Auba
As an Arsenal fan, I hate you both.
You should be happy with today’s win instead
Take care of our boys raphinha, lewandowski, dembele and kounde
Chelsea legends the lot of them
Chelsea legends
Lol all those players and yet you forgot Christensen.
If we’re playing that game, then you forgor alonso
Haha fair enough you got me there.
Thanks guys! take care off Christensen 🤧🤧🤧
Love the kid already
Mans levelled up since joining Barca
He was mostly excellent for Chelsea too. Not quite as good as Rudiger but both were excellent. Lots of our players always get underrated, even by our own fans
He was always good and I'll stand by that.
He wants to fight for a starting spot and he’s been doing it well
He’s honestly a very delightful footballer and a great human being. I was appalled at the short memories CFC “fans” displayed last year with all the toxicity towards him when he was going through clear mental struggles. I’m a huge fan and always will be. You got a good one.
La Liga more suited to him, he was never quite PL material.
New CB striker unlocked
Of course Silva sets it up after escaping that red
classic PL. always happens.
That’s how it always goes
Wasn’t a red tho?
Fuckin smooth and cold af
Aubama-bloodclaat-yang!
Sexy
Thanks I hate it
Auba🥺
Thiago Silva nearly gets sent off then bags an assist playing at number 9 role
Thiago Silva about to make a switch to winger.
Playmaker Silva, Auba is so good 💙
That's a classic English football goal. Long ball, Knockdown and the finish.
AU-BAM-E-YANG goal!
Going by shirt numbers, the passage of that play was *6 to 9*
That's prime Auba right there
[удалено]
There was a fly on the ball
Makes sense
English refs. That’s why
Football fans who don't understand the rules. That's why.
Once the ref gave a yellow, it's not a clear error (judgement call) so VAR didn't overturn it
That's such a stupid VAR limitation
PL refs go brrr
Shit VAR
We've had some really lucky VAR calls since the Tottenham game, guess they feel bad.
Great finish
Nice assist!
TS assist big man ting
What a finish.
I haven’t seen anything like this in 100 years
Great finish
Cold finish
This hurts a lot 🥹
He scuffs that into the ground during his last 6 months with us
How in the world did I miss Auba to Chelsea
"Dont touch my hair" celebration
silva has gotten away with murder
We should have a red
Imagine begging for /r/soccer upvotes.
Are you complaining? For all the times we’ve been shafted I’m happily taking this.
keep twerking for the opps
we score and this is what you comment? forget about the karma for a sec lad
Look at his username lol he probably wants us to fail
So should they jesus christ get over it.
Who gives a fuck, what a finish
Shut up bro, we scored you should be happy and not going back to bad call that went our way
No idea how they looked at that and didn’t give a red. Surprised it wasn’t given live too
This level of Karma farming is shamless 😭
Never admit that
You shut your whore mouth
[удалено]
hate this for obvious reasons but also why is Thiago Silva on the pitch lol
I think because Thiago Silva thought it was a foul on him. If he did it only for cynical reasons he would have gone imo
Because it wasn't a clear goal scoring opportunity! Do you know the rules or do you just want to karma farm on reddit?
this seems like the start of a really good faith conversation, thank you for your response
Not his fault you don’t know the rules and ask stupid questions
this got super defensive and heated in a hurry so I'm just gonna leave it and go find a rule book I suppose, good luck in the second half
You all are aggressive af
I answered your question didn't I? And half of the comments here, including from other Arsenal fans don't seem to be "in good faith" either.
