If you wait any longer it will be too late."Pochettino said he had spoken to the veteran defender Thiago since his wife's comment."I'm sorry that my personal outburst as a passionate Chelsea fan has caused such an impact," Belle wrote in a new post on X on Wednesday. "I'm passionate about the team, I thrive on victories and I'm saddened by defeats."We all want the same thing, a winning team, come on Chelsea."Pochettino said that Thiago had met with him privately."He came today to talk with me. I'm not going to talk about (what we said)," the former Tottenham boss said. "He came and wanted to talk with me... that was private. That's it."Chelsea posted a convincing 3-1 win over Aston Villa in the FA Cup on Wednesday. They face Leeds United in the fifth round of the domestic competition.
