Eden Hazard

[LAM09 6,547]

He is the one player who can change a game by himself for us. A vital part of our team.

[papito 8]

Costa too

I would add Matic to that, with those 4 I feel we can win any game, take one out and we are guessing again like last season.

I think the depth is good, but those 4 are in a league of their own in this squad. It also shows just how good Mourinho really did getting last season's squad still in the race at January with just one of them 4.

We were 4 points behind with hazard injured in the last months, with torres as our striker and no chance creator like fab in the midfield. Mourinho did well considering the circumstances.

Credit has to be given to Mourinho for identifying the targets needed. It takes a manager like Mourinho to properly use the money given to him to get the exact personel needed. Give wenger money to fix his team and he forgets to buy a centerback, a DM. Give Rodgers 120mil and he buys midtable players.

People think just giving money equals success but forget you have to be smart about it. The manager plays a big role, unless you spend 200mil like united without balancing the finances like we did.

Last year was a bit of a first for Mou, at Porto, Chelsea the first time, Inter and Madrid he had top class well balanced squads equipped to challenge at the top. He returned to Chelsea and the squad were still behind what was needed to challenge and there was no real top class CM and ST avalible, so he had to persevere a bit until those players became avalible.

Hazard will be our most important player because of his huge potential. But right now he is equal with the one that puts the ball in the net. With torres upfront we would be 5 or more points behind(fact). People shouldn't underestimate the importance of a proper goalscorer.

Hazard, fabregas and Costa are all equal in importance imo

Yea, I remember him saying last season that we'll be challenging this season. But everyone took it as mind games when he was actually just telling the truth

[Gilvorak 3,734]

People do know Eto'o was our first choice striker when he was fit last season right? And Ba towards the end of the season.

We lost the title because we didn't have Fabregas not because of Torres. I think our best player is between those two.

Eden Hazard will never become a chelsea legend untill he is able to grow a full beard.

Is Lampard, Terry or Cech able to grow a beard?

Im more worried that EVA won't be a legend

IIRC Samuel started 3 games after his injury vs Arsenal, which was annoying as he was coming into his own and winning us points and scoring crucial goals. Also our best form off the season came with Eto'o fully fit and leading the line, which we only got for about 2 months between the Liverpool and Arse games.

Personally if we had a fully acclimatised Eto'o from August we would have won the league in my opinion, let alone Costa. I actually wish we still had Samuel as 2nd choice in all honesty.

i prefer he plays a bad game and he scores than an unbelievable game without a goal . Ronaldo often plays bad but scores . common Eden you can do it

He plays bad but scores and we lose 3:1. He plays great creates two goals doesnt score but we win 2:0.

You need to realize we are not Hazard Fc but Chelsea fc. And Eden himself said he wants to create for others rather than just score goals. He is more Ribery than Ronaldo. And thats what people seem to not understand. This aint fifa. Not all top players score and score and score...same story happend when people expected miracles from Oscar but now realised what his true role is.

The sooner people will get past the obsession that Hazard needs to score shitload of goals and win 10 golden balls to be considered world class player, the better. He doesnt need to score goals. He helps the team, he improves us as unit in attack and that can win us trophies.

Everyone jumps on Ronaldo at Real but thing is that Di Maria was the one who brought them CL last year. Ronaldo scored all those goals, but he did shit all in most important game. Di Maria didnt score but he was key for trophy in their campaign. If Hazard can give that kind of impact to our team, we will win trophies. And this is the main goal.

Right now its impossible to beat Messi or Ronaldo even if Hazard scores 30 goals. Its just impossible. But is Ronaldo big game match winner? No. Even Messi wasnt in recent two years. But in few years things will change as they always do, ball is round etc and new players will be winning golden balls. If Eden brings us on top of england and europe, he will be among best even if he will score just 10 goals per season. The thing is that he has potential to unlock any defence and doesnt need to score to do that. We have 11 players; not just one.

That's not what he said

It's perfectly reasonable to expect more goals from an attacking mid/#10. I personally don't worry too much about his scoring stats but I understand why others do. Regarding Oscar, he was below average early on in the season. Regardless of your role, turning the ball over as much as he did was unacceptable. compare that to his recent form and you can see the improvement.

The sooner people will get past the obsession that Hazard needs to score shitload of goals and win 10 golden balls to be considered world class player, the better. He doesnt need to score goals. He helps the team, he improves us as unit in attack and that can win us trophies. Completely agree with this part. His game is much different. You can honestly see he doesn't judge his game with goals, but with chances created. Just compare Hazard to Pedro: It's safe to say Hazard is a much better player. They play in the same position but you can obviously see Pedro wants to do nothing but score; while Eden is much busier creating. Hazard at his best will be similar to a Zidane than a Ronaldo/Messi

Everyone jumps on Ronaldo at Real but thing is that Di Maria was the one who brought them CL last year. Ronaldo scored all those goals, but he did shit all in most important game. Di Maria didnt score but he was key for trophy in their campaign. If Hazard can give that kind of impact to our team, we will win trophies. And this is the main goal.

Ronaldo's job is to score goals regardless of his position, similar to Oscar's job being to act as a box-to-box mid at the #10 spot. And unless Di Maria was assisting or saving goals every game, I HIGHLY doubt he was more important to Madrid than Ronaldo last year.

Right now its impossible to beat Messi or Ronaldo even if Hazard scores 30 goals. Its just impossible. But is Ronaldo big game match winner? No. Even Messi wasnt in recent two years. But in few years things will change as they always do, ball is round etc and new players will be winning golden balls.

The thing is that he has potential to unlock any defence and doesnt need to score to do that. We have 11 players; not just one.

Big match winner? if I take into account their entire careers, I can honestly say Messi is a big match winner. He doesn't win every time of course but he has showed up for many big games.
