Telling a doctor how to treat a patient is simply stupid...she can have her medical license revoked for failing to take care of a patient as it is her sworn duty to look after those she is responsible for. As Hazard told the ref he needed treatment she had a duty of care to him and that has nothing to do with the manager. It was a bizarre rant on the pitch and afterwards and the stories coming out since have made a bad situation worse...banning a doctor from thebenchfor doing their job? I suspect there will be a u turn as the media, the medical profession, players and most chelsea fans are siding with the doctor. The trouble with a u turn is that no one will be sure how mourinio will respond to being told he has to back down by the club.
If this article is true it's very depressing. And much worse than just Jose's ego. http://www.oneworldsports.com/?cID=3784 If true, it turns out it is old plain horrible sexism after all. Some little boys that can't handle a woman in and around the changing room. Forget she's got an IQ bigger than all theirs added together, has treated them and got them back on the field. They apparently can't play as well if they can't swing each other's dicks, tell their pulling stories and act respectful in front of a colleague. Welcome to our world little boys. Time they grew up. Actually hope it's not true.
A new low for Mourinho. The doctor and physio should resign and sue him for slander. They were not "impulsive" or "naive", they were exercising their duty of care under the instruction of the referee.
It's his own fault, when he sent the message to Hazard to go down and waste a bit of time he forgot to tell the medics and the ref
A tad strong Shteve.... a bully I'll go with in this case. Actually, a sexist bully. As I said way back, there is a suggestion of sexism behind this in some form, and it not just about the Hazard incident, it has to go deeper than that to merit such a reaction.
A sexist, a misogynist and a homophobe walked into a pub. The barman said " what are you drinking Jose ? "
Meltdown scapegoating by Mourinho. The Irony.. Mourinho wants Hazard to go down like he was shot, the scream, the fall. Eva probably thought there was a 7.62mm round lodged in Hazard's skull. Also didn't the ref request the doc to come on? This was nothing but blaming anyone but yourself. If a player goes down and appears to require treatment it is negligent for the doc to not treat him, so was Jose admitting there was **** all wrong with Hazard? Then why did Hazard stay down? It makes no sense except in Joseworld. The doc did the right thing, medical decisions are not the managers. Or is 2 points in Jose's mind worth more than Hazard's health? Either way an epic tit. This whole public show at first humiliated Eva who is also a medical director at Chelsea. But now she is not humiliated but vindicated and everyone backs her and her team from all quarters and rightly so, Jose ****ing fumed at dropping two points and blamed the first person he could. Well her and the ref also
Jose has made himself look a plonker in public.............................again, but this time it is bad bad bad, it could lead to destablising the whole squad. The physio was also demoted not just the doctor. The ref called the medical team on. Jose was in error and for what it is worth I think honestly in that moment when he was rapt and totally focused on the game. Hindsight has show him he was wrong to make any comment about the medical team after the match. Jose has no control over the medical team. Various campaigns have been made to highlight the dangers of concussion, something Chelsea have first hand experience with. Jose had to publicly support the medical department's independence and I thought he was told to because I just felt it wasn't sincere. Only my opinion. Eva is a rising medical star, forget all the 'sexy physio' crap, she has been a high flyer for a while and a standard bearer for women in a male dominated sport. Chelsea isn't her first job and won't be her last. She is a leader. Jose is a leader and most importantly a natural born autocrat. He craves control and he lives for detail. He has humiliated our top medical pair and can put it right, at some small cost to his pride. You come out and say sorry and then you make it right. The squad is appalled at what has been done by Jose (I've been in e-mail contact with my high placed snitch and he is under Chelsea media restrictions so I just know OK) The Sport's own medical council is outraged and feel this is slightly further up than just the thin end of the wedge. The Public's sense of fair play has been offended. Can Jose swallow his pride?
...why is this sexist? He didny call her out by name, according to reports she isnt the only one getting punished. Feels like people are kindof circling to put the boot in over something thats been blown out of proportion Just me thinking rationally here though-unless its necessary to be nice to women even if we feel we sont want to or they are poor at their jobs, to avoid being sexist... Which when u think about it, is quite sexist...
It isn't sexist in the slightest. That's just pandering bullshit. Its stupid, ******ed and petulant though, so by no means should these actions be excused. Jose has overstepped the mark here and should have kept his mouth shut. This could even cost him his job. Methinks the old Jose/Roman feud has been reignited by a lack of financial support during the window. I can sense this ****. Jose is telling Roman he needs X players to improve the squad, Roman is saying "use some of the award winning youth team I have spent 10's of millions of pounds on". Jose in turn has now thrown his toys out of the pram because he didn't get what he wanted and is now blaming everyone else for us dropping 2 points. "See I told you we needed reinforcements, our youth are not proven enough". So now he is looking to blame everyone else for that result other than himself. He needs to keep his ****ing nose out of the medical side of things and prove he is as special as he claims and win.
****ing Ralph Rogers has chimed in now. Ripping into Eva for thanking Chelsea fans for their support. Saying she is trying to get into the limelight. "She is not one of the stars, she is support staff" What? So because she is not a superstar she should just sit back like a good little girl while the manager rips into her and the physio to the press, because she isn't a "Star". **** off, you obnoxious prick.
Blown out of proportion by Jose. I'm surprised the FA or more professional bodies haven't come out yet to condemn him, and I expect a court case is being prepared if the club isn't already trying hard to fix things themselves. Jose has publicly said that he believes he should have the right to overule doctors and the referee at the expense of players' safety if he believes his team will gain a tactical advantage in doing so. It is an absolute disgrace of the highest order.
Have to agree with Astro here guys. This has ****ing shocked me completely. Jose has dropped immeasurably in my estimations here.
It was, it's also a nothing story that has become a typhoon in a thimble. Mourinho has done what he always does and found a scapegoat outside of his 'boys'. What happened afterwards is because she naively and impulsively responded with a dig at Mourinho through social media, ****ing stupid to do that to your boss if you want to keep your very lucrative position. after all, she hasn't been fired, lost her position, been fined or lost any income at all, the only thing that happened was she was called 'naive and impetuous'. You'd think he'd led a gang-rape against her
Absolute twaddle mate, I'm sorry. What he did was insult the medical staff on national TV. She didn't have a dig at him at all in the slightest, just thanked the Chelsea fans for their support. Who the **** is he to determine whether medical aid is required for a player. Ok Hazard may have been faking or whatever, but if he HAD been injured and gone down and the ref had summoned the medical staff and they had refused to treat him so that we didn't go a man down, both the doc and physio would be losing their medical licenses for failing in their duty of care. If Jose felt they did something wrong, then fair enough, that's fine, pull them into the office the next day and explain it to them, don't go on ****ing TV and start calling them names FFS. And now Eva isn't allowed to say anything back because she is just a lowly doctor and not a "superstar".....this is ****ing elitist bullshit.
