Following Chelsea’s 1-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest on Saturday, Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino has been urged to drop Chelsea defender Thiago Silva.
A Chelsea
fan account on Instagram, talkcfc_ posted: “This won’t go down well but I think
it’s time to drop Thiago Silva.
“Playing him is becoming a problem
because we have to play a back 5 to shoehorn him in.
“Playing 4 at the back will allow us
to be better going forward and I don’t think we’ll suffer much at the back.
“Nothing but respect to Thiago but I
think we’d be better off without him at the minute.”
But Thiago Silva took exception to the
post as he replied: “If you look closely at the game, we are playing with a
line of 4 my friend!
“But there’s no problem in assuming
that I’m also responsible for the defeat. Put pressure on me. No problem
yesterday!”
