More SAD NEWS has been announced for CHELSEA Star Thiago Silva ahead of Crystal palace Clash after he was benched in Thier last game against Everton
A Chelsea icon talks about why Mauricio Pochettino put Thiago Silva on the bench – walexsports.com
Frank Leboeuf said that Mauricio Pochettino’s move to sit Thiago Silva out of Chelsea’s FA Cup replay against Aston Villa on Wednesday had nothing to do with what the player’s wife said.
After Chelsea lost to Liverpool and Wolves in a row in the Premier League, Silva was put on the bench just a few days after his wife seemed to call for Pochettino to be fired.
Before the 3-1 win at Villa, Pochettino said the choice was based on tactics alone, and Leboeuf seems to agree.
The World Cup winner told ESPN FC, “When things go wrong, you have a target, and the biggest and easiest one is the coach.”
“Players are starting to say bad things about the coach because they think the strategies and decisions are bad, but you need to pay attention to what they say.”
Was Thiago Silva’s wife telling the truth when she said that? That doesn’t make sense to me.
Thiago Silva has been on the bench before, and it wasn’t because of what his wife said. It was a trick, and he needs a break since he’s 39 years old.
“That was more. “When he came on, I saw Pochettino put his hand on his shoulder and talk to him. I didn’t see any tension between them.”
