Thiago Silva's wife Belle has hit back at some comments made during Chelsea's heavy thumping at the hands of west London rivals Brentford in the Premier League.
Silva, 37, was away during the international break with Brazil and only played as he came back one day earlier than Christian Pulisic, as revealed in Thomas Tuchel's pre-match press conference on Friday. So no wonder his performance was described as 'uncomfortable' in football.london's player ratings from the contest.
Perhaps the most uncomfortable Thiago Silva has looked in a Chelsea shirt for a long while. The movement of the Brentford front two, Toney and Bryan Mbeumo, was problematic for the Brazilian, and the Bees were able to drag him out of position when part of a centre-back duo. The Brazilian was more composed in the middle of a three, but the visitors were ahead at that stage of the contest. 5', his rating read.
