RIP Chelsea FC – Blues fans turn on Pochettino’s team after club set unwanted record in shocking 5-0 rout at Arsenal

Even the wife of one of their defender's could not hold back

CHELSEA supporters viciously turned on the club after they made unwanted history when getting thrashed at Arsenal.

The Blues were blown away as the Gunners romped to a 5-0 win in the London derby last night.

That moved Arsenal three points clear at the top of the Premier League table, but it was a night to forget for their rivals.

Leandro Trossard broke the deadlock early on but it was not until the second half that the onslaught began.

Ben White and ex-Chelsea forward Kai Havertz both grabbed a brace as Mauricio Pochettino brought on extra defensive reinforcements to keep the score down.

The dire display even led to a young Blues fan being spotted holding up a sign in the away end that read: “I don't want your shirt. I want you to fight for ours.”

The result capped a miserable few days for Pochettino after they were beaten by Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-final.

And it also means that Chelsea, who sit ninth in the top-flight table,  have now conceded a whopping 57 goals this season.

That is the most that the club have conceded since the formation of the Premier League in 1992/93.

To make matters even worse, things could get even grimmer as they still have six matches left to play.

And fed-up fans vented their fury on social media afterwards, with one saying: “70 at the end won’t be surprising.

“I think the lion in our logo has even given up on us, is he still in there?”

Another wrote: “RIP CHELSEA FOOTBALL CLUB 1905 - 2023. It's not Chelsea anymore.”

“I heard someone saying there is some improvement from last season,” posted a fellow fan.

“I will just laugh and let Chelsea become whatever they want. It is better they change the name to something else.”

A fourth said: “This club is falling apart.”

While a fifth added: “What a mess. How can it get worse?

Meanwhile, Thiago Silva’s wife Belle rubbed salt into Chelsea wounds after they were hammered by Arsenal.

Silva, 39, came off the bench after 78 minutes to provide experience to a youthful Chelsea starting XI.

And after the game, the centre-back's wife appeared to take aim at the poor performance.

Belle, 37, simply tweeted three emojis - which mean see no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil - which suggest she is not allowed to speak her mind honestly.

This is not the first time the outspoken Wag has made a dig at Chelsea.

After a 4-2 loss to Wolves in February, she appeared to call for Mauricio Pochettino to be sacked.
