Thiago Silva was seen in tears after Chelsea suffered defeat to Manchester City.
The Blues were dumped out of the FA Cup by Pep Guardiola’s men after a 1-0 semi-final defeat at Wembley.
Bernardo Silva struck from close range six minutes from time to ensure City’s hopes of winning the double remained intact.
Thiago Silva, who looks set to move to west London this summer, cried shortly after the match ended.
Meanwhile, Noni Madueke was seen laughing in the background as he spoke to City player Jack Grealish.

And Blues fans noticed the contrast, with many praising Silva’s mentality.
One fan wrote: ‘You can see the immaturity of our team, if we had just three more with Silva’s mentality we would have already won a trophy.’
Another said: ‘Getting our club together and guess who’s leaving this summer? Silva is crying because this is his last chance to win a trophy with us. A club he really loves.’
‘Renew Silva. sell noni. I’ve actually seen enough,” a third Chelsea fan added.
Silva’s contract with Chelsea expires later this summer and no extension talks have yet been held.
The 39-year-old moved to Stamford Bridge from Paris Saint-Germain in 2020, but this could be his last season playing for Mauricio Pochettino after being one of the Blues’ key players over the past four seasons.
In January, Silva admitted that his career was ‘almost over’ and that he was ‘relaxed about his future’, despite not having agreed a new contract with Chelsea.
