As Porto defeated Chelsea 2-1 in their Champions League Group G clash last night, frustrated Chelsea fans were making Branislav Ivanović jokes after watching the defender struggle to complete a tackle.
Not successful until the 90th minute, another poor performance from the player left many confused by manager José Mourinho’s insistence on including him in the starting line-up.
Here are all the best Branislav Ivanović jokes after the Champions League group stage tie that finished Porto 2-1 Chelsea:
Don't understand Ivanovic, he just refuses to tackle. It's like he's playing with an analogue but no buttons.

Players are going through Ivanovic like a knife goes through butter at the moment.
Gone is the brawn. There was hardly any brain so…..

If Ivanovic had twitter at least he'd be able to block people.

Not even Ivanovic's mother would include him in Chelsea's starting XI.

Ivanovic really does eat, sleep and breathe football.
It just big shame he can't play it.

@ChelseaFC I want ivanovic to put me in my grave so he can let me down one more time

@ChelseaFC Sell Ivanovic and use the money to save some Syrian refugees. I'm sure many of them would be better at right back than him.

Hard to defend Jose when he keeps playing Ivanovic. Havent seen a man be so error prone at work yet keep his job since Homer Simpson.

Ivanovic will die and Jose will start his dead body at right back next game.

We actually spent £15m on one of the best LB players in Germany last season but stick with Ivanovic who couldn't cross a road properly

The Last Player Ivanovic Pocketed Was An MP3 Player…
