French pundit Rioli slams Chelsea defender Thiago Silva: He's unbearable!

French pundit Daniel Rioli has taken aim at new Chelsea defender Thiago Silva.

Riolo has slammed Silva for complaining about PSG dragging their feet in offering him a new contract after the Champions League final.

He told RMC: "Thiago Silva wanted to repay Leonardo, he did it very badly! The way he describes his situation in extra time which turned into a non-overtime and then a proposal at the last moment, I really don't see what he can fault Leonardo on.

"We just realise that like Cavani, Thiago Silva especially had a very misplaced pride: 'Oh no, the proposal had to be made to me before, now it's too late, blah blah blah…'

"Yet he had agreed for a long time with Chelsea. He's like, 'I'm crying, I'm hurt'. It is always the blow of heightened emotion. Thiago Silva is unbearable!"
