ITV commentator Jon Champion delivers brutal takedown of Thiago and Belle Silva during Chelsea's FA Cup win over Aston Villa...after the Blues defender's wife appeared to call for Mauricio Pochettino to be SACKED

ITV commentator Jon Champion took a brutal swipe at veteran Chelsea defender Thiago Silva following his wife's controversial 'time for change' social media post during the Blues' 3-1 win over Aston Villa.

Mauricio Pochettino's team continued to dumbfound, this time in producing a pitch-perfect performance against Unai Emery's Champions League-chasers in the FA Cup fourth round replay at Villa Park.

Goals from Conor Gallagher, Nicolas Jackson and Enzo Fernandez earned a much-needed result, off the back of two bruising Premier League defeats that had piled the pressure on the Argentine boss - and motivated Silva's wife Belle, to post a cryptic rebuke on social media.
