Chelsea have removed club doctor Eva Carneiro from bench duties after she ran on to the pitch to assist Eden Hazard towards the end of the club’s 2-2 draw with Swansea.
According to The Telegraph, Carneiro will no longer be allowed to ‘attend training sessions, games or enter the hotel’.
Carneiro had previously taken to Facebook to thank fans for their support following Mourinho’s public criticism of her.

Unsurprisingly, the club are facing a massive backlash over the decision.
I think everyone agrees, or the sane ones, that Mourinho should've kept his mouth shut rather than having a go at Eva. Let her do her job.

Doctor blamed and sacked for running onto pitch to treat injured player (who Mourinho says was he knew not injured). And the player?

So Eden asked the medical staff to come on the pitch.. Shame all of this has blown out of proportion. #CFC
