Yes, that hurts, but frankly I think Thiago silva being out is a bigger loss. He's the captain, and really the only player on that team that is purely defensive. Even his CB partner David Luiz will venture forward, and he is the man they count on to be their rock. Losing him will force Marcelo, Luiz, and whoever plays RB to stay back more. Think that loss is a much bigger one. He's the captain, and Neymar can be so up and down. With Neymar, they can do a like for like switch with Willian or bring in another holding or attacking midfielder. They have no one who can step in easily for Silva
