Silva had earlier tried to calm down irate Chelsea fans, who were bitterly disappointed with the team’s performance in the League Cup tie, per Talksport.

He approached them to applaud their support and looked to have departed on amicable terms. The 39-year-old was seen high-fiving one fan after they had an intense discussion regarding the match.

The good news for Silva and Chelsea is that their League Cup dreams are not over.

They will face Middlesbrough at Stamford Bridge in the second leg. A two-goal win in that match would see the Blues advance to the Carabao Cup final.
