Eva Carneiro has not returned to Chelsea since Jose Mourinho fallout

Chelsea club doctor Eva Carneiro is yet to be reinstated to Chelsea's matchday bench, and has not been at work altogether since being criticised by Jose Mourinho on August 8th.

Clearly smarting from a poor 2-2 draw at home to Swansea City, Mourinho lashed out at his medical team after its treatment of Eden Hazard briefly left Chelsea with nine men after Thibaut Courtois had been sent off earlier.

"I wasn't happy with my medical staff because even if you are a medical doctor or secretary on the bench, you have to understand the game," he told the press postgame.

Mourinho was condemned for his comments by many in the game, and the Gibraltarian has not been back to work since. Though first-team physio Jon Fearn has resumed duties at the club, he too has been relieved of his matchday responsibilities.

In the wake of the game, it also transpired that referee Michael Oliver gestured for the pair to tend to Hazard, making it their obligation to do so.

According to the Telegraph, both Carneiro and the Blues are seeking legal advice, with the Stamford Bridge outfit apparently looking to re-deploy her elsewhere in its medical department.
