Ivanovic has come in for fierce criticism and his form has also been questioned in team meetings, but Mourinho said: “Ivanovic likes to speak with me and Ivanovic likes to speak with me about his mistakes, and is not crying. He's not crying, he's not a prima donna and I'm critical with him. We speak about what he has to do to try to improve. I have no doubts he is my best right-back and that he has to improve in some aspects of his game this season. Simple as that.”
