Thiago Silva laughs off his rating in EA Sports FC... as Chelsea's Brazilian defender jokes 'they're watching football with their eyes closed' when he's shown his new card

Thiago Silva couldn't help but make a jibe at the expense of EA Sports FC after they dealt him a rating he didn't agree with for their upcoming game.

The Chelsea defender joked that the developers must be 'watching football with their eyes closed' when he was told about his rating, which has declined.

EA Sports FC, the successor to the FIFA game series, comes out on September 29 and EA are unveiling various player ratings.

Silva has been assigned a rating of 84, a decline of two which puts him on par with Reece James and only two behind Chelsea's top-rated star, Christopher Nkunku.
