According to Metro, Noni Madueke faced heavy criticism after being seen laughing with Jack Grealish while Thiago Silva was in tears following Chelsea's defeat to Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-final on Saturday.
Despite creating several clear-cut chances, Mauricio Pochettino's side fell short at Wembley as Bernardo Silva's goal in the 84th minute sealed a 1-0 victory for City, setting them up for a final clash against either Manchester United or Coventry City next month.
The loss dealt a significant blow to Chelsea's hopes of securing silverware this season, particularly affecting veteran defender Thiago Silva, whose emotional reaction after the final whistle drew attention.
As Silva was consoled by Conor Gallagher and wiped tears away with his shirt, Chelsea supporters expressed anger towards Madueke, who was observed sharing a laugh with Grealish behind the Brazilian defender.
Madueke had already faced criticism from Chelsea fans earlier in the season for his actions, particularly regarding attempts to take penalties off Cole Palmer.
The winger's reaction after the FA Cup semi-final defeat further fueled discontent among Chelsea supporters, with many expressing their frustration on social media platforms.
One fan expressed outrage, highlighting Madueke's apparent lack of sensitivity towards Silva's emotional state and criticizing his behavior after the disappointing loss.
Another fan echoed similar sentiments, condemning Madueke's actions and labeling him as a "joke of a player" for his inappropriate reaction following such a significant defeat.
