Chelsea stars Thiago Silva and Chilwell have blazing row after Arsenal goal as Blues capitulate in horror first-half
THIAGO SILVA and Ben Chilwell were spotted rowing with each other as Chelsea capitulated in the first half against Arsenal.
The Blues were already 1-0 down thanks to a super strike from Gunners captain Martin Odegaard on 18 minutes.

But the Norwiegen doubled his tally and Chelsea’s misery on the half hour mark as he struck past Kepa Arrizabalaga again.
A ball came into penalty box and Odegaard latched onto it and fired home to make it 2-0.
As Arsenal’s title-chasing side wheeled off in celebration, it was civil war between Chelsea’s struggling squad.
Defenders Silva and Chilwell were seen exchanging words in a heated argument in which Enzo Fernandez found himself also involved in.
And it about summed up the state of the club on the field.
One fan said: “Silva and Chilwell having a fall out after the goal, just sums up the mood right now…
“We won’t win another game all season.”
Another added: “Enzo, Thiago Silva and Chilwell arguing after that goal. Whole club’s a mess.”
One agreed: “There is no communication. Chilwell and Silva were having a fight.”
It only went from bad to worse before the break as Gabriel Jesus capitalised on some calamitous defending to make it 3-0.
A ball came into the box, which Cesar Azpilicueta failed to defend, leaving Jesus to pick up the loose ends and hammer home.
