🇧🇪 Eden Hazard

[OneMoSalah 8,886]

I saw the game today, Chelsea played but it pained me to see Hazard like this. He was shite

So shy, unwilling to display all of his abilities, i don't understand why. He is reluctant to dribble whereas in Lille he managed most dribbles than anyone else in the league. He tries to be a bit too collective, in order to not get too much responsabilities. That doesn't fit to his character at all, at Lille he was the man, he carried the team and he loved it.

Maybe he's tired in that case RDM should put him at rest soon. Maybe it's a lack of confidence, and then it won't get better without at least trying to make the difference by himself. He has the abilities to create so much danger, to eliminate on his own one or two defendes before releasing the ball...

Hes still adapting to the league and the system we're trying to play I guess, as is Oscar. Wait a while yet and he will soon be playing as good as he did in France.

ASSIST Eden Hazard has been given the assist for Gary Cahill's stunning opening goal at White Hart Lane #TOTCHE

[mediator 2,026]

They are less pressure on his shoulders, so i'm happy with it

Of course that wasnt a assist, ffs.

Gallas was the one that made the assist.

I agree. Yet the EPL seems to think differently.

Think he was completely absent in the 1st half, but much more involved in the 2nd with a fantastic assist on top of it.

But you have a point of course.

Compared to how he played at Lille he looks indeed shy. Maybe he doesn't get too much in a position to take on players, restricting himself therefore to crisp passing and movements or RDM indeed restricts him. Another explanation could be that it is simply not that easy to get passed players in the PL as it was in the Ligue 1. I've noticed today he tried to do it much deeper in the field, and being happy to be fouled. This may change in time though if he grows more confident and stronger physically.

You have been well spikey today.

we can afford to be patient ...Im sure both Hazard and Oscar will deliver

[Henrique 9,133]

I agree. Yet the EPL seems to think differently.

I lost all respect for EPL official stats. I remember one game that Ballack took a very nice free kick, the ball hit the post then GK's back and went to the net. It was considered an own goal.

I dont know how that could be assist. That doesnt matter, anyway.

[5354 204]

i think hazard still in the process of adapting. he knows that he will not get PKs that easily and ref doesn't call for fouls easily.

that might be a point on why hazard does not want to take unncessary risks. i mean its better to pass than try to get pass a pllayer and loses poession.

how many times we saw ref didnt give fouls for oscar, hazard and mata when they are out muscled or being blocked off the ball?

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Another good performance, only criticism from me is that he needs to take defenders on more often when in one-on-one situations. Needs to train more often with Danny

Well yes, considering when it hit the post it was going away from the goal and had the goalkeeper not made contact with it then their would be no goal, so of course it an own goal. But that's physics for you.

Hazard got ripped a new asshole by the Belgium coach - said he needed to defend better and concentrate on that not just his tricks...

So that's a big possibility as to why he played under-par (still better than most)...

Also today was about doing a professional job on AVB and Spurs, this was not the kind of game for fancy tricks, just hard work and graft - we did that

He will work out the balance soon enough - thank God he ain't with the Belgium squad for a while though

Right now there's so much talent on the Belgian squad that and out of form Hazard won't play that much if at all.

I just get the feeling that he's lacking confidence and needs to be more selfish but he's afraid to be looked at as a ball hog, but his quality is reliant on him being the primary attacking midfield component.

Hazard's still adapting to the EPL & working on his understanding with Mata/Oscar. He's only played like 7 EPL games and people are already worried about his place in the Belgium national team.

I personally don't think we'll see the best of Hazard for another season or two..just like his Lille manager & quite a few of his Belgium team-mates suggested.
