SHOCKING NEWS: It’s possible that Thiago Silva’s wife could have put an end to his career at Chelsea Football Club.

Belle Silva’s recent remarks could potentially spell the end of Thiago’s career at Chelsea. After the Blues’ 4-2 loss to Wolves, where Thiago scored a header, Belle tweeted, “It’s time to change. You need to make some adjustments. In the event that you continue to wait, it will be too late.” While there’s no official confirmation, the football community inferred she was referencing Mauricio Pochettino’s role as manager.

 

Following a 4-1 loss to Liverpool, Pochettino faced criticism. However, public scrutiny from a key player’s spouse would likely not sit well. Thiago was notably absent from the FA Cup rematch against Aston Villa, possibly influenced by Belle’s remarks. Despite this, Pochettino’s team excelled, possibly indicating Thiago’s absence contributed to their success.

 

Thiago, now 39, lacks speed at the highest level, forcing Chelsea’s defense to drop deeper. This affects Moises Caicedo’s midfield coverage and invites more opposition pressure. While Thiago compensates with game reading, Chelsea’s win rate drops to 36% when he starts, compared to 86% when he’s benched.

 

His return to the starting lineup hinges on Pochettino’s decision to rest players or shift to a back three for added cover. Despite being an icon at Chelsea, Thiago’s time at the club may not end as he would hope.
