Popular Post! Kieran. 6,317 Posted December 13, 2012 Popular Post! Share Posted December 13, 2012 I like that he's starting to take on players again; I think he's been one of our best players under Rafa so far. Mustafa, Rambo, Pacquiao and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 It's sad every player wants to be a #10 nowadays. Eden has been playing to his strengths in recent weeks and it's paying off. He's a all-round wide man rather than a genuine #10. Maybe in a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustafa 885 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 He played terrifically against Monterrey! One of his best games for Chelseahttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6iO4ax43RGcWish he scored at 3:28 MAF, Stingray, Rambo and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 May sound harsh but I honestly expected more goals from Eden. Hes doing well with everything else though so I don't really mind as long as we score goals and keep winning. Two things I love about him is that he can get fouled a million and one times in a game but still picks himself up every time and repeatedly takes people on etc. Also his acceleration is absolutely exceptional, if he wanted he could have a sloppy touch and still he can recover it before a defender. His first touch is usually perfect though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His first touch is usually perfect though tbh i didnt expect him to score alot of goals in his first season in the PL. Eden tends to focus on helping others score first and scoring goals himself after. Next season i expect him to score more...At Lille he scored 7 times in 2010-2011 and 20 in 2011-2012...

Waterfall 893 Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 When he cuts inside from the left side with his outside foot, he's even more fascinating to watch than usual. He needs to do a better job of maintaining the possession however Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backstreet09 499 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Still a better Goalkeeper than Valdes OneMoSalah and CHOULO19 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His first touch is usually perfect though For starters, I can think Hazard and some of the others should try shooting at goal themselves when the opportunity is there rather than trying to walk the ball into the net every time.

Especially Mata as well, gets into a decent position but always looks to pass. Same with Oscar despite him having a cracker of a shot on him as we seen vs Juve!

Same with Oscar despite him having a cracker of a shot on him as we seen vs Juve!Mata has 11 goals this season - that's Lampard-esque. May sound harsh but I honestly expected more goals from Eden.

His first touch is usually perfect though When we signed him a lot of rival fans were saying he'd be too lightweight or he'd take a long time to settle. He came in and blew the doors off. Now he's quietened down as rival teams know a little more of what to expect and he's probably suffering a bit with the pace of the game, but in the last few games he looks like he's getting back to his best.Throw in the fact that he's playing under a new manager who expects a little bit more defensively from him and I have to say I'm mightily impressed with the way he's stepped up in recent weeks.Plus he's still only 21 - just to compare him to someone totally unfairly, people often say that Ronaldo kicked on after about 100 appearances, and that happened to be around the age of 21/22.

Jase 43,479 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 He was very impressive today defensively without the ball. Have never seen him worked so hard and tracked back the way he did today. He has improved a lot in that aspect in recent times. Hope he continues with this and at the same time, tear up the opposition's defence! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseathebest 150 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 He needs to improve ASAP.He loses loads of balls, is afraid of duels, gives up too fast...Too fucking bad for reportedly the best young player in Europe.And it's not the case just today, he's been shit like last 6 games, probably even more.
