The legendary right back for Chelsea was on international duty for Serbia but withdrew after playing for about 65 minutes in the Euro 2016 qualifiers match against Albania.Despite his absence, Serbia got the better of their opponent without conceding any goal. The game ended 2-0 in favour of Serbia.
Chelsea have has their worst start to the Premier League under Jose Mourinho and most of the goals conceded by Chelsea has been blamed on the lackluster performance of Ivanovic. Despite Ivanovic horrendous and shambolic displays, Mourinho has backed the 31-year-old to retain his place in Chelsea’s team as he believes that the player is his best right back – but his injury might give Rahman opportunity to earn his first Premier League Start.
The Premier League defending Champions have been reduced to non-contenders in the BPL as they are currently wallowing in the 16th position of the League Log. Chelsea have conceded 17 goals in eight games, just one better Sunderland who have conceded 18 goals. Their defensive record negates their style of play that was the norm.However, they will be facing Aston Villa in their next Premier League match but will be looking to bounce back and find a new winning momentum with a complete squad.
