Chelsea defender Thiago Silva have made a sly dig at his former employers Paris Saint-Germain ahead of Chelsea's Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid.
Silva, 37, is preparing with the rest of the team for a big night in his ever-glistening career as he aims to help manager Thomas Tuchel win back-to-back Champions League titles. If they are to achieve that feat, all Chelsea defenders need to ensure that they put in a better shift than they showed at the weekend against Brentford. A performance that caused his wife Belle Silva to come out in a fiery mood after comments from a certain commentator enraged the Silva household.
She took to her Instagram account @bellesilva: 'I'm here in my box at Stamford Bridge. I just listened back to the commentary right now and what the commentator said. "'Thiago is not attacking enough.' Respect him, please. Thiago Silva arrived yesterday as he played for Brazil. Thiago Silva is very tired, and he's 37-years-old. He's played since he was 20-years-old so respect to him- he's not a machine, he's human, so he needs to relax, alright."
