The title of this article may sound a bit strange, and it does, but when talking about Chelsea, we can expect anything. Just like Manchester United (who is even worse when it comes to ‘club culture’), the Blues are in turmoil. The bad news for their fans is that they have been in turmoil since the takeover in May 2022 and there is no end in sight, while the good news is that there are teams, like Manchester United, still wander, 12 years after Sir Alex Ferguson’s departure. But concentrating on Chelsea, their season is on the balance, considering that they probably won’t be in the running for the European football, for the second season in a row. But, there are still remote chances for two trophies, in the League and FA Cup.Thiago Silva’s wife aims at Pochettino’s sackingThe Blues are facing Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley on February 25th, while they are still alive in another cup, but they are facing a tough opponent in the Round 4, Aston Villa in Birmingham. Tonight’s game is a replay, since Chelsea failed to win at home (0-0) and are travelling to Villa’s ground, facing Unai Emery’s squad who have a 9-1-1 record at home with 30 goals scored. Tough task for the team which conceded eight goals in the last two game, four of them at home. But apart from the game preparation and analysis of the opponent, Pochettino also had something else to do – he had to talk with his player about his wife. I’m sorry that my personal outburst as a passionate Chelsea fan has caused such an impact. I’m passionate about the team, I thrive on victories and I’m saddened by defeats.We all want the same thing, a winning team, come on Chelsea!!💙💙💙— Belle Silva (@bellesilva) February 7, 2024 That wife is off course an unspoken Belle Silva, who is famous for her social media rants about Chelsea fans or her husband’s teammates and how she ‘hit’ the coach himself. After a 4-2 defeat from Wolves she posted “It’s time for a change. If you wait longer, it will be too late” on her social media account. And everybody knew to whom she was speaking. Pochettino had a talk with Thiago Silva, but told the press that the Brazilian first reached him. “He came today to talk with me. I am not going to talk in the way we were talking. The important thing is he came and wanted to talk with me. He knows me after more than 10 years, who I am, we are a very strong coaching staff and the way we operate. Of course he came to talk. We talked. It was private. And that’s it” said the Argentinian. In the aftermath, Belle Silva publically apologized for her ‘outburst’. So, everything his cool now. Until the very next opportunity.##NAJAVA_MECA_7855541##
