Thiago Silva hits out at 'lack of f**king respect' shown to Enzo Fernandez, with Chelsea's £107m signing being slated for 'needing an Uber' by media in Brazil, after being beaten for pace by Karim Adeyemi in Dortmund defeat

Thiago Silva has hit out at a Brazilian media outlet for criticising teammate Enzo Fernandez following Chelsea's Champions League defeat on Wednesday.

The Blues fell to a 1-0 loss away to Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of the last-16 clash with the German giants.

Karim Adeyemi scored the only goal of the match for the hosts, making a breakaway down the pitch and beating Fernandez in a race before making a collected finish.

Sportsmail previously reported on social media praise for Adeyemi, which also slated Fernandez, just weeks after his £107m record move to London from Benfica.
