Chelsea fans were left fuming after a video of one of their players laughing with Jack Grealish just moments after the team’s FA Cup loss emerged.

The Blues were knocked out of England’s oldest competition by Manchester City, who kept bounced back from Champions League heartbreak 72 hours earlier.

Bernardo Silva’s 84th minute strike was enough to see off the Blues, who will end the campaign without silverware, according to BBC.

There were interesting scenes at full time, as Thiago Silva was seen shedding tears for what was possibly his last shot at silverware with Chelsea.

The veteran defender looks set to depart Chelsea as his contract expires in the summer, and there are no indications of a renewal.

A video doing rounds on social media appears to show that the defeat did not affect all the Chelsea players the same way.

While Silva, a serial winner with PSG, was inconsolable at full time, Noni Madueke was the opposite.

In fact, the winger could afford to laugh with his international teammate Jack Grealish, which left Chelsea fans on social media incensed, according to SPORTbible.

Here are some reactions from fans:

@scottishimage:

“The difference between a winner and a poser. The more silvas you have the better you do.”

@nicksta_napo

“Noni just doesn’t care about football Man is a content creator and he’s using Chelsea for his content.”

@kevyngbash

“Did u not see Chelsea players fighting over who would take a penalty? It shows there is trouble in the camp.”

@Kaynet0

“It starts from the coach. No Emotional connection with fans, that is what we are seeing with the likes of Noni.”

What next for Chelsea?

Chelsea will have to put their FA Cup disappointment behind them fast as they face another tricky fixture against Arsenal on Tuesday, April 23.

The Gunners temporarily moved to the top of the table after a 2-0 win over Wolverhampton on Saturday.
