Like in Premier League, Chelsea have not performed well in Europe this season either.
The owner may be losing patience with the Special One, but even whilst losing 3-1 to Liverpool at home last weekend the fans were still singing his name.
Mourinho earlier on Tuesday said he would be satisfied with a draw, believing the Blues would still qualify by beating Maccabi Tel-Aviv and Porto in their remaining games.
With the pressure mounting on manager Jose Mourinho, the Blues will aim to provide their beleaguered boss with a boost when they play host to Dynamo Kiev in the Champions League.
“We need a positive result for two reasons; for the competition itself but also for the general situation and the bad run of results, so it’s important for us”, Mourinho told BT Sport before kick-off.

Last time these two teams met, Chelsea hit the crossbar on two occasions, coming all-too close to a victory, but ended up leaving with a 0-0 draw.
BATE Borisov are third in Group E, a point behind second-placed Leverkusen.

Avi Rikan is out to change that. “We were kind of shell shocked the first couple of games but we have started to play better and we have three games left”.
