Chelsea are currently at the middle of the table. Moreover, they are having a hard time in the league. In addition to that, their main goalkeeper Robert Sanchez is also dealing with an injury. Now because of that, the Serbian goalkeeper Djordje Petrovic has stepped up for the team and he’s been excellent till now. But the main concern is that the goalkeeper alone can’t do anything to stop the team from conceding goals. And it’s quite visible that Chelsea are dealing with defensive issues as well. The only reliable player in the defensive unit as of now is Thiago Silva. However, the Brazilian is already 39 years old and this may be his last season at the Stamford Bridge. The club needs to find his replacement and Alessandro Buongiorno seems like a perfect fit for them.
