Chelsea defender, Thiago Silva, hasy explained Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola’s role in his move to Stamford Bridge.
Silva said that he made the decision to move to the Premier League despite his initial inhibitions because Gaurdiola changed the game in England.
The Brazilian told ESPN (as quoted by Metro): “No man, no. I never imagined I would play in the Premier League one day. It was one, with all due respect, football that I didn’t like.
“Because I thought it was a lot of aerial balls, get up here, fight there. I never really liked it even though I’m good in the air and adapt well. I thought I wouldn’t play here.”
He continued: “I think one of those responsible for this change, I think, is Pep Guardiola, right? He plays more. The others don’t try to copy but they look to play more. Because this is beautiful football to watch.
“And from that moment on I became interested. I watched more at home. Chelsea’s proposal came and I didn’t think twice.”
