Why Mourinho does always Ivanovic? Here is a beginning of explanation: "At the same time, every team, except Maccabi Tel Aviv, is a team of giants. And if you don't have a minimum of five tall players good in the air, you are dead in set pieces. When I play Azpilicueta on the right and Baba Rahman on the left and I don't play Ivanovic, I have only three, not even four. So we have to think about all the details. And I think about all the details." Playing Hazard, Pedro, Willian, Azpi, Fabregas, Baba does not help apparently !!

Mourinho in his post match interview acknowledged without naming him that Ivanovic was abysmal from minute 1 to 90. And that it was his mistake for believing in him. Iva should be without a doubt benched against Everton. Not a bad match! Small improvements from last weeks! Mourinho has problems with very defensive tactics. I thought he found solutions to these last year. Players need to put much more pace in their game and diversify their game plan. Much in need of long range shooter like kenedy. Defense is not scoring as many goals as last year which opened up the matches for us the previous year. So wait & see, I see lots of room for improvements ! We have the potential to be a very good team
