In two years away from France, Thiago Silva has had time to take a step back and, above all, to understand what it takes to win on the European stage.
Leaving in 2020, the former central defender and captain of PSG succeeded in a few months in winning the Champions League with Chelsea.
At the microphone of the Canal Football Club, he explained why PSG failed so regularly in its European campaigns, being very critical of the sports management of his former club.

At first, the Brazilian defender said he was still shocked by the Parisian defeat against Real in the knockout stages of the Champions League, while still saying he was a fan of the capital club.
“It was an incredible elimination, unimaginable for us who are supporters of PSG, he testified.
Every year, it's the same thing... "
"It's hard to be whistled at home"
And the Brazilian to blow solutions.
"There are things you have to look at to try to improve for the future," he said.
You have to make a lot of changes.
There, it is difficult to progress.
Each time, we start from scratch and that is not possible in football.
PSG has a lot of money but that's not how you win titles.
The 37-year-old defender knows the recipe for winning the Champions League.
For him, the supporters must not let go of their team: “Neymar is very happy in Paris but it is difficult for him at the moment.
It's hard to be whistled at home.
In France, PSG wins everything but it is useless.
We have to win the Champions League and that's not how they are going to win.
Fans must support the team.
They always make a difference...negatively or positively.
