Thiago Silva's wife, Belle, took to social media to call for change
Three Premier League wins in a row and reaching the Carabao Cup final appeared to be showing some progress under the Argentine head coach.
But a hammering at the hands of Liverpool was followed up by a damning loss to Wolves at Stamford Bridge.
And Silva's partner Belle, who has criticised the likes of Graham Potter and Timo Werner in the past, took to social media immediately after the game.
In the post, she seemed to take aim at the manager as she urged the club to shake things up.
Speaking on X, formerly known as Twitter, she said: "It's time to change.
"If you wait any longer it will be too late."
Many Chelsea fans poured in to respond to the tweet as they agreed with Belle's criticism.
One said: "Thank you for always speaking your mind."
Another added: "I prefer you to manage Chelsea!!!"
A third replied: "Get Pochettino out now."
While a fourth responded: "Safe to assume this is also how Thiago Silva feels then."
Silva, 39, scored a consolation header in the defeat to Wolves but has received some criticism for his performances in recent weeks.
Yet despite his inconsistency, Pochettino has started him in 21 of Chelsea's 23 league matches this season.
