CHELSEA'S Champions League winner Thiago Silva slammed former club Paris Saint-Germain after their European triumph.
The Brazilian also heaped praise on former Chelsea boss Frank Lampard for bringing him to London.
Silva hit out at PSG for the pressure on his shoulders during their unsuccessful attempts to win the Champions League.
Speaking after Chelsea's win over Manchester City, Silva told RMC Sport: "Every time Paris was eliminated, people tried to find a culprit and it was always me.
"It's a shame, I really gave everything."
After frustration with PSG, Silva finally got his hands on the Champions League trophy after their 1-0 win over the Premier League champions.
Silva was forced off in the first half with a groin injury for Thomas Tuchel's side in Porto but it could not take the gloss of their European triumph.

And the defender was quick to praise Lampard for his impact in bringing him to Stamford Bridge.
Silva said: "Tuchel changed everything, the team mentality. But it's also important to talk about Lampard.
"Without him, it was difficult for me to win here, thanks to him for letting me sign here."
