Who knows maybe the same happen with Hazard. I'm speaking just about numbers they were both amazing in PL of course. I'm sure Messi's numbers would drop in PL. Nah Ronaldo scored like 90 goals in all comps in his last 3 seasons at United (66 PL goals out of those). His numbers were already improving and they did so more at Real. Even at Real his first season was 33 goals in 35 games. Then the next 6 seasons he scored over 50. I think he would of managed to score 30-40 in the PL if he stayed still. I dont think Eden will ever be that prolific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 9,089 Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 I still think if he goes there, huge fee, superstar wages the lot, he will be seen as a direct replacement for Ronaldo. And yes he will struggle to make such an impact as Ronaldo managed to. I see him making a similar impact to Bale more than anybody else tbf and to be honest Bale has done reasonbly well for Real so wouldnt be all too bad but I really think their fans and the Spanish media will see him as a Ronaldo replacement and expect him to try and make the difference up. Even Bale who has done very well there, having a goal every 2nd game basically, scoring in finals, winning a lot has endured a mixed reaction from their fans and the media so it wont be plain sailing. Its 100% happening though, although I wonder if Barca would be willing to rival them for him I think hed suit them better. c.h.e.l.s.e.a. and Superblue 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand Hazard having that urge to play there if it's been a lifetime goal/dream of his but they are a squad in need of a serious rebuild. They've lost their best player and as you said they will view Hazard as his replacement and Hazard is no Ronaldo. Other key players such as Marcelo, Ramos, Modric, Kroos, Bale and Benzema are in serious decline and need replacing. For Hazard personally this is coming at the worst time and regardless of the quality of their squad, those fans are probably the most demanding and impatient in world football. With the mentality that he portrays I do believe there is still part of him that has doubts over this move. We may be in a rebuilding stage ourselves but he's idolised at this football club, with him and his family well settled and kept private. I don't think he's currently there yet, but if he were to stay and play the remaining best years of his career here, I do believe he would be on that level as a Chelsea legend that the likes of Terry, Lampard and Drogba are.

If we are to have a ban I'd rather we have it now whilst we're in a state of transition anyway than defer it. It would give Sarri potentially an extra year to get this style to work (if he stays) and some of our loan and young players potentially a chance to stake a claim, before we can buy players again and go big if required.

I feel that would be the worst outcome. Sarri can't implement his 'style of play' with the current lot. We have and we are seeing that. If we keep sarri, we will need to get players (specially a striker) who suits his requirement. If Luiz leaves, we will need a cb who can fill in those shoes, my preference would be ake Most importantly we need to sell the likes of willian and Pedro, and get wingers who do what is asked off them (stick to the touch line) rather than crowding the center. It's almost imperative that sarri gets a transfer window if he is getting another year. Else it will be the same old drivel that we have seen this season sans hazard.

Popular Post! BlueLyon 9,359 Posted April 10, 2019 Popular Post! Share Posted April 10, 2019 If he stays he will truly be one of Chelsea greats. When Terry, Lamps, Drogba refused offers left and right, Chelsea was undisputed top 4 club in the world. Regular semifinalist in CL and PL contenders. Chelsea has been way below top for a while now, despite two titles in last 5 years. We havent shown proper ambition in a long time. If Hazard who is world class still stays here, that will be a massive respect. Clockwork, Johnnyeye, Fernando and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All our players (and AVB/Mourinho) who went to a rival went because we deemed them dispensable, not the other way round.
