Thiago Silva went to see his trainer to explain.
Not holding a grudge, Mauricio Pochettino did not hold it against the Brazilian.
The former Paris Saint-Germain coach had in fact been targeted by a tweet posted by the defender's wife where she criticized him for the Blues' poor results, after the latter's defeat on Sunday against Wolverhampton (2-4).
She apologized this Wednesday.
“I am sorry that my outburst caused such an impact,” said Isabelle Silva in a new tweet.
I am passionate about this team, I am fulfilled after the victories and saddened by the defeats.
We all want the same thing, a winning team, come on Chelsea!

The Brazilian's wife had already expressed herself in this way when the latter played at Paris Saint-Germain.
In 2018, she insulted Unai Emery when he did not start Thiago Silva during a match against Real Madrid.
