🇧🇪 Eden Hazard

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

One has to say tho, that the WC players leaving the premier league for Barca and Real are getting gradually older again. Ronaldo at 24, Modric and Bale at 26, Suarez 27,  Hazard 28. The new old galacticos like the ones with 30 something van Nistelrooy and Beckham are a trend again^^

Hazard has been our best player since 2014 and will only get worse from now. Surely the inferior La liga will give him a stats boost but I don't think he will be the monster there he was here and I also do not think he is gonna win the CL there. The age of La Liga is over. The age of Orc errr the PL has come. This time for good.

We should only sell if the ban is stayed, if it ain't fuck the £100m and keep him next year should be the only option. I'm not one to slate the club on a whim (quite frankly the FIFA career mode mentality some have makes me cringe) but selling him without a chance to replace will be ludicrously stupid.

It's not the most ideal of situations, but a couple of things to be considered if we sold Hazard and the ban remained would be:

(1) It gives a season in particular for CHO and Pulisic to play more regularly outside the shadow and reliance of Hazard to see if they are both capable of taking the club on in those positions. A season scoping what we already have may help us to avoid going and getting a panic buy in (for example something like Bale). If they both show promising signs of developing and growing then the decision may be made to go forward with these two as our first choice wingers and that money can be spent next summer on other areas of the squad that need it.

(2) Whilst we would all like to think that Hazard has a good and loyal character about him, if we keep him seemingly against his will and he runs his contract down he could end up going anywhere. Who's to say that Real Madrid will want him in another year's time if they've gone and brought other players instead. Next summer we don't have a choice about his destination, heaven forbid he moved to another Premier League club. At least this summer we still have some negotiating power and control over where he would move.

No way he will stay for another season. We will see the worst of him if we forced him to stay (on and off the pitch). Dude has made his mind. Can't stand another year with his interview 'You all know where I want to play' blah blah along the season ever again. Let him go.

He deserves to leave this summer no matter how much that hurts Chelsea.

Nahh that train has come and gone. Eden has already left the Building and the Club must have known it for some time now. I dont begrudge him this, he has been such a servant and deserve our help if his mind is made up. But of course it will be on our wishes, not RM's. If the Price is 100M, its 100M. Not 70 plus Kova etc. Not 87M only. You pay our value.

since we have been refusing to sell dregs like Alonso, Willian, etc etc

our business model is backing up due to only loan fees coming in, plus big outlays, STUPID buys, and when we do sell (like we are in middle of doing with Eden) we get fuckall compare to actual value (think Cuntois, Costa, etc)

More like the 75m+ paid for a goalie

We're a club that has to stay close to break even net spend wise. 

This season we've spent 80 million on Kepa, 57 milion on Jorginho and 64 million on Pulisic. 

Only player we sold was Courtois for 35 million. We need to bring money in this summer.

DD, Bakayoko, Zappacosta, Morata. Throwing money down the drain was bound to catch up eventually.

According to Belgian newspaper HLN, the paper Kristof terreur writes for, Eden and Zidane want clarification about his future. Real want to offer €100m but Marina still wants €130m according the paper. They say Hazard wants to know before he leaves for international duty 4th of June.

Hazard wants to go to Real Madrid but it seems like they don't value him as much as we do...

Real Madrid are point blank taking the piss. Last year of his contarct or not.... they should pay at least 80% of his market value... not 60%.

This video breaks my heart for two reasons.

1- it seems as though Hazard is heading for RM. Such a shame because watching this highlight tape really shows how class this lad actually is. Head and shoulders above 99% of the premier league. Such a big loss to lose him

2- seeing the likes of Lampard, Terry, Diego Costa in a blue shirt makes me miss the days of a strong core built of leaders who had blue in their veins. Something we hugely lack with the current crop.

i feel you mate, i really wish he could stay here, he has given us 7 years of great service and won a lot of trophies with us, marvelled us with his skills, goals and character, a shame that our board was so inept in surrounding Hazard with better players otherwise he could have won even more trophies at Chelsea. Lets hope he goes out with a bang against Arse in the Europa final. Cheers

What a fucking legend, he will forever be Blue and he knows it. A PL and Chels legend for sure. If we just had backed Conte then maybe a CL could have been got at for Eden. God damn we look soft now compared to the clips shown. Look how direct we were.....fast pacy deadly....now its endless passing....slow passing.

Chelsea want £130m for Eden Hazard, Sky Sports News understands

No chance Real will give us that type of money
