Eva Carneiro,Chelsea’s team doctor has been at the receiving end of Mourinho’s ire ever since she went on to the field the other day to check on Eden Hazard.
Chelsea were down to 10 men at that time- Thibaut Courtois having been red carded earlier.
Hazard being examined for what according to Mourinho were not life threatening injuries meant that Chelsea were having to play on with 9 men on the field.
“I was unhappy with my medical staff. They were impulsive and naive,” said Mourinho.
“Whether you are a kit man, doctor or secretary on the bench you have to understand the game.”
The upshot of this medical mayhem story is that Eva Carneiro – a qualified and popular member of Chelsea squad – has now banned from the bench by a mightily miffed Mourinho.

Jose has handled this in a very cack handed manner.
You do not give a verbal volley to a highly skilled member of staff in public. She is not there to discuss team tactics, but is there to provide medical care to the players. I wonder if the sent off player received similar abuse.
Steve, I imagine Thibaut Courtois got a earful. Yeah, but as to Mourinho, he seems to have jumped the shark.
