He is getting worse now imo, at this rate he won't even get to 5 goals. For some reason most of our goals he is nowhere to be seen or doesn't seem to contribute anything significantly. If he is truly knackered, lets rest him for 1 month, we got enough covers now and maybe Salah can have more minutes.

That moment when you have one of the best striker in the world in your team, the feeling is so fucking good!

Looks like West Brom game last season all over again

Our Stoke game now

Lampard with a winner in the 90th min next week for them

Struggling in a fast paced game, it is why we let him go.

Khedira seems to be in terminal decline and injury prone now ever since that injury last year. Just been ruled out for like 2 months so earliest he will be in top form for Madrid is in November/December. Don't think he can cut it anymore but we need to wait and see, if it pointless if he becomes a new Marin even if he is free

Yeah as if that man says any truth transfer window closed, Torres not for sale, less than 2 weeks later...

The fee is irrelevance, he pretty much made profit for Madrid already based on his sponsors alone

I know me too but like I said we would obviously never agree to this swap even if it was Ronaldo because of his age and recent injury record, but obviously a deal could happen if both parties want it. So Hazard wanting to join Real, refusing to sign a new contract with just 2 years left and Madrid wanting Hazard to replace Ronaldo. A deal would be easily agreed as long as CR7 agree to go with it, but we know MU is his 1st choice. I don't know, stranger things have happened before in football.

Yeah 60m fee but I would imagine him+ some money for Hazard if it is the case or just a straight swap. Yep he will be on like £300k but that is nothing for someone like him, considering we will be getting rid of Hazard £170k per week as well at the same time. http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/cristiano-ronaldo-reveals-would-play-2969714 and as we know with footballers, nothing they say can be taken for granted because if that was the case we shouldn't even be having this conversation considering he said he wants to stay at Madrid for the rest of his career(don't they all?) when signing a new contract last year.

Silly rumors going around we are preparing a 60m bid, coinciding with Hazard to Madrid rumors haha. I know it is 0.00000000000000000000000000000000001% of happening especially with CR7's recent comments regarding Mourinho but lets say LVG fails to get top 4 and get sacked and CR7 wants to leave Madrid for whatever reason. Who knows, Mou did manage to convince Fabregas to sign for us after all, 3-4 months after Fab indirectly telling him to shut up. While losing Hazard is tough but getting Ronaldo(career mode fifa fantasy) as replacement is great too, especially if we plan to use him for 2-3 years and buy Reus to fill Hazard's long term shoe. This is football, anything can happen. I mean who see Di Maria and Falcao as MU players now after their last season or after Di Maria MOTM performance in CL final/Falcao signing for Monaco.

Also replacing his 10-15 goals/assists is easy if we get a good replacement in, someone like Reus/Gritzemann/Alexis Sanchez quality is more than enough, not to mention huge changes left to maybe sign a top striker/cb IF needed.

Wait until end of this season then evaluate, with our squad now league title is a must or CL title instead. If we end up trophy less again or win FA Cup/Capital One Cup it could be argues that Jose is no longer good enough, 2 seasons without a major trophy with a top 5 starting 11 in football would be shocking. Obviously if he goes we will go for a top coach too, but I believe Jose is the man until at least the summer. We can't live in the past, maybe Jose was never the same after that Madrid spell, this season will show whether it is true or not.

Got the potential to be one of the best GK in football history and no1 in Belgium history if he knows what he is doing or keep doing what he is doing. Just hope nothing bad happens to him at his peak like Cech a few years ago with that Reading incident, at his age in 20 years time we could be all talking about possibly the top 5 players in Chelsea history here too. Also hope he doesn't lost form/fell out with manager(s) in the future, if he keeps on performing and doesn't change his personality(ego) he will be a massive success.

I think most people complaining about the things being throw at Hazard is missing the context here. No one doubts his quality, however if we want to mention him among the best in the world(which people on here and Chelsea fans in general) think he is then it is only fair to put him up there with the best in term of comparison. He is a good player and if he has a season like last one every year most people wont mind him staying here until the near end of his career. However there are expectations as well which most of us believe he Should become one of the best one day, the question is when?

Basically he is that great player that help us start games well and attack other team, but he is never/unlikely to ever be that spark 'wow' factor that top top players have. He is never gonna do a bicycle kick in 90th mins like Rooney, scoring goals every match like Messi/CR7, dribble the whole pitch or bang in a 40 yards like Bale on regular basic...etc He is just a 'great' player, but not someone who will stand up to be a leader in difficult times. In facts he is never really the 'difference' but more like the 'addition', making average moments on the pitch great but cannot improve great into world class. Top top players can handle huge pressure, he clearly cannot(yet) but doesn't seem with his personality he will ever be. 10-15 goals/assists per season is decent for a winger/midfielder but top top players like CR7 and Robben are getting 20+ now in those catalogs. He is also not the one that will make that much difference in a big match and clearly show he isn't consistent enough yet for those games. For example he played great against Man City last year away but a week later played terribly in our FA Cup loss. When the team need someone to step up he isn't that man(yet), the team doesn't play well he doesn't play well. He is young though and got time on his side, he can become top 5 players in the world but never gonna reach the very top. At best imo he would be as good as Robben, but Ronaldo level or Messi or Henry(transfer from a winger into a CF) will never happen.

If not careful could see this becoming a Sunderland/West Brom game again like last season. Especially international break with basically every single player on duty and a couple like Costa injured. I would take a scrappy 1-0 like last season.

Inevitable that he will become our regular LB soon.

As long as are getting 20-30m+ every year I couldn't careless even if it is some Chinese unknown company.

Rumors going around that Madrid will line up a 60m bid for him next summer to replace Ronaldo if he wants to leave. While it is unlikely atm, not really that far fetched especially if Hazard has an amazing season again. I think he will want to go, after all this has been expected ever since the day he set foot in Chelsea. If he does leave though I hope we get at least Bale fee aka 80-100m and we MUST bid 30m for Reus.

Is this just me or has his hairstyle haven't changed in like 4 years? I assume he spends time every few weeks to make sure it stays the same, any bit growing back up is cut down straightaway. A bit like with Vidal and Raul Meireless haha

No.

Before he wasn't but if he is ruled out for 3-4 months now we should reconsider. Could potentially become a long term problem if he isn't careful, Ashley Cole for example never fully recovered from ankle injury a few years ago and apparently still require ice after every match now.
