Thiago Silva's wife, Belle Silva, has launched an implicit attack on the Chelsea squad following the 1-0 defeat to Fulham. Despite the Blues' poor performances of late, the veteran defender has continued to show his class at the heart of Graham Potter's backline.
He's featured 16 times for the west Londoners in the Premier League this season and has remained an integral feature in the side, leading by example on and off the pitch. Worryingly for Chelsea, Silva sees his contract at Stamford Bridge expire at the end of the season and the club are yet to identify an obvious heir to his throne.
Despite the Brazil international's best efforts, the Blues have struggled to keep the ball out of their own net, with self-inflicted mistakes often at the root of the problem. And, after two individual mistakes by Chelsea players handed Fulham three points on a silver platter at Craven Cottahe, Belle Silva has seemingly hit out at her husband's teammates.
