Andrey Santos showed why Chelsea cannot let him leave this summer with top display vs Leeds
Chelsea claimed a 1-0 win against Leeds United in the FA Cup semi-final to book their place in the final.
It has been a turbulent season for Chelsea, but they still have an excellent chance to clinch silverware.
Aiming to end a worrying winless run, the Blues brought their A-game in the semi-final, showing the cohesion that Liam Rosenior could not instil during his short stint.
Several players who looked off the boil under the former Chelsea boss seemed to find a new lease of life.
One player whose form has been particularly concerning is Andrey Santos.
Despite working with Rosenior at Strasbourg, the English tactician did not trust the Brazilian midfielder in England.
Add in rumours of interest from at least two massive clubs, and it appeared Santos was heading into his final days at Stamford Bridge.
However, in only the first game under Calum McFarlane, Santos showed that Chelsea would be silly to let him go.
