It’s time to change. If we wait any longer, it will be too late.

Chelsea captain Thiago Silva 39. His wife, Belle Silva, posted a message on social media that seemed to criticize the coach and the club after a series of defeats, BBC Sport reported on Sunday.

It came after Chelsea lost to Wolverhampton 2-4 at home in the 2023-2024 English Premier League EPL on Sunday. It was their 10th loss in the EPL this season and dropped to 11th place.

It could not have been a comment that bothered Mauricio Pochettino.

After Silva’s wife’s comments, Pochettino said he had spoken with Thiago Silva.

Pochettino, who was appointed Chelsea manager in July last year and is going through a difficult time, said, He came to me and talked to me. The important thing is that he wanted to come and talk to me. We are very strong in the way we want to operate. We have talked but we don’t want to disclose it. The relationship with Silva is very good.

Eventually, Belle Silva apologized by posting another message on X on Wednesday. I’m sorry that my personal anger as a fierce Chelsea fan affected me. I’m passionate about the team, happy about winning, and sad about losing. We all want the same thing. The winning team. Come Chelsea.

Belle Silva also reportedly liked Graham Potter’s tweet about being an incompetent manager who doesn’t know what he’s doing just before he was replaced by Chelsea last year.

Chelsea striker-turned-footballer Chris Sutton criticized Belle Silva for saying, It’s not good for the situation. It’s hilarious. This is not what the club and Pochettino manager need.
