Hazard doesn't slow down the play nearly as much as willian and you know it. Willian does this almost every time, that's why I mentioned it. From that pic, because willian is not a good dribbler (imo) he can't get past just one player, hazard would at least try to beat him or even ivanovic would have used his strength to power through. But willian lost his ability to beat players in Shakhtar and his poor decision making is not helping to mask that.

Exactly. I don't know about other coaches but I hate players repeatedly making the same mistake that can be fixed. Like you said I'll tell them to their faces to fix that part of their game. Personally, to me willian is just not intelligent, Its not his fault. But he should be able to learn how to speed play up and dribble past one marker with space like that. Unacceptable for his age and skill that he doesn't get that.

No, try to get reus first. I don't really like his assists ratio too. Once a player doesn't have good assists/chance creation ratio, he won't be good enough for a title winning team unless he is younger and has more years to develop.

Someone showed me this aspect that he needs to improve and I agree. Has to try to dribble the guy with that much space behind, or pass the ball quickly. Make a fast decision instead of delaying and slowing our play drastically, giving the defense time to organize.

No godin, no modric and no simone is a travesty

The guy is fast. From the video it seems he can play all roles behind the striker or plays a free role. But his dribbling is very good, he actually beats his players and not just do silly stepovers just to pass back. He seems to have a powerful shot on him too. His only weakness is his decision making, but looking at the no of assists/goals he has for a team like lazio, then its not that bad either.

He's a better shot stopper than courtois, or let's say he pulls off more incredible saves when our defence is having a nightmare. But courtois is better at catching balls in the air, so has advantage in defending freekicks and corners

1. Fast CB that doesn't back off till opponents enter our box - Varane 2. Powerful, mobile and technical CM that can shoot from distance and help us in big games - Pogba or sissoko 3. Right winger that can dribble, and cross with a very good assist rate. - Reus, Griezmann, Lacazette, Roberto Firmino. Explanation. The fast CB is obvious. We can't allow everyone to realize our weaknesses of how anyone who attacks our backline one on one situations will be made to look like messi because they are slow so must back off. Even cabella and chadlii become cronaldos. We need a ballack. Powerful, technique, mobile as Matic and can score from outside the box. We can't play fabregas and oscar together in midfield against the big teams, tottenham taught us that. We should buy a right winger who has more than 7goals 10assists a season for previous seasons. No more hoping they develop, we haven't gone anywhere because of that. This is the only way we can be sure the right winger will deliver. Hazard had 20 goals and 20assists in the French league and has maintained this level for us.

How good is he? Can he play rw? Can he dribble and is he a good crosser and finisher?

At this rate he could overtake hazard in the player of the year position. Incredible 13 goals and 7assists or so already.

That team right there can dominate the league and Europe for years. If only we could be more ambitious to go for it

He said dimaria and ozil are going nowhere too

This guy knows where to be in the 18box. Looks on course for 25-30 goals. The last time we had a player score above 20 we won the league. This guy is massively important to our title charge

Most goals+assists for Chelsea in EPL: 1. Costa: 16 (15+1) 1. Cesc: 16 (2+14) 3. Hazard: 12 (8+4) 4. Oscar: 11 (4+7)

Their defence has totally collapsed since this season

They're not to be honest. But they won't cost us, I still strongly believe we will win the league. But

Did I hear willian made the right decision in attack? Not watching the game sadly

I know thats the priority above the dribbling I mentioned but I've looked and I don't see any realistic goalscoring winger in this window except for reus and lacazette of marselle. We should have gotten griezmann but that ship has sailed. So maybe we can get someone who can create more chances for our right wing by dribbling like hazard and creating space for others. Which is lavezzi and cuadrado.

I'm saying no one except hazard can dribble past people in tight spaces, in fact even when there's space only hazard can take the ball past more than one person. Every team should have at least 3 if they want to open up defences easier. I don't want to start to name the number of dribblers Realmadrid, Barcelona and bayern have.

Exactly, sell him and get a proper dribbler. They are not exactly goalscorers but they can dribble past people like hazard does and having that on the right wing too takes our attacking play to another level

This guy and thiago are technique kings. Crazy good

Exactly, but if we get him, pogba and reus.
