I couldn't catch this game live. How was his general level of play?

 

I heard that he started playing better when moved to the no. 10 role instead of Fellaini?

 

He was okay throughout the match (probably 6/10), definitely looked more dangerous in the No.10 role.  Once Mertens and Carrasco came on, he seemed to have a bit more time and space.

It was an underwhelming performance from Belgium.  KdB was below par, Lukaku showed his level of maturity and Fellaini was rubbish for most of the game (in the no.10 and CM roles).

I feel bad for him. He has never had the opportunity to play in a functioning team, apart from Chelsea of Fall 2014. When teammates are static and just standing there without any effort to make runs, Hazard will also look ordinary. He needs the team to create movement in the final 3rd but the current Belgium team is a perfect example of a team that relies solely on the individual efforts, much like Chelsea in the past 6 years or so. No structure whatsoever and the opponents can easily afford to have 2-3 players marking Hazard at all times. Having donkeys like Lukaku or Origi as strikers surely don't do any favours to Hazard's play either.

His game of "I will never shoot the ball into the net until I can pass it inside the goal with a 100% chance of scoring" is a complete down for me. He had one or two chances where he could have scored from distance (Or at least I think, I literally saw only red dots threatening the Italian wall.) but no, he decided to dribble with very little effect against us. Still he was the more effective of an otherwise toothless attack.
I thought the same of Vertonghen in the second half pushed up the pitch quite a lot.

On another note who the fuck is Ciman? :lol:

He tried to shoot yesterday actually, and it wasn't very good shots (from my memory one was left leg and one was blocked).

Thierry Henry: Why Chelsea star Eden Hazard has to be admired

Quote

 

The Gunners hero became a fans’ favourite during his time at the Emirates, and is the club’s all-time leading goalscorer.Hazard, who endured a massively disappointing campaign last term, struggled to find his best form as Belgium slipped to a 2-0 defeat in their opening Euro 2016 game against Italy on Monday.But Henry spoke of his admiration for Hazard before the match.

He said: “He reminds me when I was young.“When I used to play a video game I used to give the ball to the best player and just let him run.

“It’s just crazy what he can do, I think that goal against Tottenham gave him a massive boost to do what he’s doing at the moment with Belgium in the game before the Euros.”Hazard was voted PFA Player of the Year and the Football Writers’ Association Player of the Year for the 2014/15 season.
