‘Pochentino lacks discipline, which is why we all refer to him as a ‘BABY COACH’. If I were him, this specific player would sit on the bench for four straight matches.’ Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglou discloses the one Chelsea player that performed poorly despite their draw win against Manchester City.

Carragher believes this Chelsea star’s career is over after an explosive match against Manchester City.

Jamie Carragher believes Thiago Silva’s time at Chelsea is up after being overshadowed by his younger colleagues against Manchester City.

Silva suffered an injury against Crystal Palace last Monday night, and while he was ruled out of the trip to City, he could return in time for the Carabao Cup final.

However, some fans will be hoping that the 39-year-old does not face Liverpool after the centre-back duo of Axel Disasi and Levi Colwill impressed at the Etihad.

Their tough defending earned the Blues a draw against Pep Guardiola’s side, with Rodri scoring late following Raheem Sterling’s opener in the first half.

Carragher called Disasi player of the match and compared the 25-year-old to Chelsea legend John Terry, complimenting his performance especially.

Silva is, of course, one of the best defenders of his generation, and he has been a standout for the Blues since his arrival at Stamford Bridge in 2020, winning the club’s Performer of the Year award last season.

However, he has not been at his best this season, and Mauricio Pochettino has continued to rely on him, with the Brazilian playing almost every minute of the Premier League season.

However, Liverpool legend Carragher believes his moment has come, telling Sky Sports: “Last couple of big away games going back to Aston Villa in the [FA] Cup and here today when Thiago Silva has not been involved.”

‘He’s been brilliant for Chelsea since his arrival. However, considering his age, his contract expires at the conclusion of the season, and when you see those two players together…

‘I feel it is hard for Thiago Silva to return to the club before the end of the season.
