He wasn't that bad, i feel certain people are jumping on the 'hate Ivanovic' bandwagon. Luiz had poorer games last season yet no one ever said anything because he's a 'joker'.

Oh, and it's funny how a couple of months ago he was one of the best RB's in the league, now people are saying he's too slow, and needs replacing... :lol:

People also tend to forget that Cole had help from Bertrand on the left wing while Ivanovic was mostly alone on the right wing.

Branislav the goalscorer.

It's not the first time Bran remained very cool in front of goal. Oddly enough, he possesses striker-esque composure when facing the GK.

I wonder when he'll be allowed to fire long range FKs for us, not all the time of course, like he does at the Serbian NT btw.

Indeed, here's a very similar one.

Mentioned this in the Reading match thread. His defending lately has been very very poor. Getting skinned way too often and easily by the wide players. He really need to wise up ASAP. Otherwise, I can see Azpilicueta easily taking his spot if he comes in and performs well.

No defender has scored more goals in the Premier League since 2010-11 than Branislav Ivanovic (9)

That's a nice stat but his primary job shouldn't be scoring goals. Lately his defending has been shit but he has made up for by scoring a lot of goals. I would prefer him to take more responsibility in his defensive duties and if he can still get goals without it affecting his defending (for example from set plays), it's great but a performance like the one against Wigan is not okay and he should be doing much better.

Hopefully now that Azpi is at the club Ivanovic will also step up his game, knowing that if he plays like shit he will get benched. A little competition for playing time is always healthy.
