manpe 10,861 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 His favorite move in a match - puts his hands behind his back and stands 5-10 yards away from the crosser. Well this is what Mourinho calls "complex biomechanical training" or smth like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Fernando 6,585 Posted March 15, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted March 15, 2015 I noticed that many times this season when an opponent play with pace, they hurt us by Ivanovic side. Don't think Mourinho cares because Ivanovic makes assist and score, but I wonder who it was that said that a defender first job is to defend..

LAM09 7,054 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I hate to repeat myself but....NOT A RIGHT BACK. See you in a few weeks for the same comment. He never has been. He is a CB and that's clear as day. Mourinho likes to put square pegs in round holes. Eidur the Spider 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,957 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Have had enough of him. The throw in he fucked up? Dear lord. If only he fucked up as no other player ever before and we had the chance to see Azpi on the right and poor Luis on the left.Alright, the cross was great for Costa but he is not a winger. If Mou loves defending, Ivan should do much more to satisfy him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNDS 502 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 I though that throw-in right at the start of the second-half was a perfect illustration as to why he is undeserving of his status as an 'untouchable'; sloppy, unfocused, overconfident. He is playing like a player who knows that he doesn't need to fight for his place. The Chels 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,909 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 He can look like an absolute tank some times and others like today he can look like a lower league player.Needs the Cahill treatment. Bench him for a match or two and get him desperate to improve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starman60 1,343 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 He did put in the cross for our goal today, and he should have had a penalty awarded to him, But he fucking fails to convert loads of crosses from good situations and because of his diving antics he will never be awarded a penalty. I think when he retires he should take up an acting career, or at least star in reality television. Starting with "Splash" alongside Tom Daley. Thats where his diving will at least be appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar 441 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Willian must be pissed off that ivanoic gets more attacking opportunities than him.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
termninja 5,290 Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 Average game for him, but I must say that I felt Jose is at fault for this one since Ivanovic was left a lot to defend against two players with not much support from his teammates. As Ramires came on, you could easily see how suddenly their tactic wasnt effective that much anymore.Agree though, his performances should be better, especially when it comes to defending. He could use a rest after so much games. I would really like to see Luis and Aspi next game, we need more attacking flair with our recent dip in performances.

Jase 43,479 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 It's hard to feel calm these days watching Ivanovic play. THAT throw-in early in the second half right to Matic, who was like in the middle of the pitch, was such a fucking, brainless, idiotic thing to do. We could have so easily gone down to 10 men when Matic subsequently made that foul on Mane but thank god Mike Dean was being lenient that time.Also, THAT rather dramatic fall when Tadic tripped him in the box, was embarrassing to watch. He's such a big and strong fella and yet goes down so easily and theatrically! LondonsFinest and Oscar 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wes 7,212 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Ivanović has now four assists in the league since the turn of the year. No other player has more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CFC888 219 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Thought he was reckless yesterday, made these crazy runs into the box before we'd even gained clear possession, left us exposed when we inevitably gave the ball away and his man hadn't followed him right in to the box and just sat out on the wing waiting for the ball.

manpe 10,861 Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 Our team is full of false players. Maybe we are looking to invent new positions? Ivanovic is a false-back, Willian is a false-winger, Azpi is a false-leftback, Oscar is a false-ten, Cahill is just false. We are often branded the most complete team, but a team full of so many false positives can't be very complete.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 He is in team because he can score, but if we had full back who would contribute in attack and defense more and give another option in attack, we wouldnt even need defenders to score in first place.
