Chelsea's turbulent season continues.
After a defeat suffered at home this weekend by the Blues against Wolverhampton (2-4), Isabelle Silva, wife of Thiago Silva, sent out a message on social networks: “It's time for a change.
After, it will be too late.

A message interpreted by supporters and several media as a request for the departure of the current coach, Mauricio Pochettino, appointed last May for the 2023-2024 season.
It's time to change.
If you wait any longer it will be too late 💙💙

Asked about this on Tuesday, on the eve of an FA Cup match against Aston Villa, the Argentine coach who worked for PSG confirmed that there had been a subject.
“He (Thiago Silva) came to see me to talk.
He wanted to speak with me.
The conversation is private and that's it.
My relationship with him is very good.
I think she’s excellent,” explained Pochettino, as talkative as in his Parisian days.
Incident closed?
This is not the first time that a message from Isabelle Silva has caused a reaction.
In 2018, unhappy with Unai Emery's choices at PSG, she made it known on social networks, then forcing the defender, now 39, to apologize.
“That day, I couldn't help but post a message on social media asking where was Unai's tactic?
(…) Usually when I make a comment of this type, Thiago asks me to stop or delete it.
But this time, he didn't make any remarks to me.
I really like to talk, but those around me don't let me do it
(laughs),”
she told us in 2019 during a lengthy interview.
