kellzfresh 7,229 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 That run where he skipped pass the Swansea defense. Then stopped, looked at the 2 defenders, looked at the ball, then back at the defenders, made plans for after the game, then passed to Oscar who passed to Remy for his goal was a joy to watch. Hazard- Costa- Fabregas and even Oscar were sublime today...they looked like they've been playing for years on end, great stuff. Hazard kept running at the defense, directly into the box. He doesn't need to score with this type of performance. He never slowed down when he got the ball, I haven't seen him this good since mancity/newcastle last season.

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 What a strange moment I remember about this, some people were worried that if Real calling, Eden will turn his head. We've already got the key to convince him to stay in here for a long time, despite money, we have Thorgan. I could see he will be more happier than ever, if Thorgan make it to the team. Who would want to go when your own little brother at the same team and same club with you? That's what convince me he will stay for a long time in here.

Sheva. 5,373 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 He looked hungry to score which is rare, something must have fired him up before the game. Ljpaddock 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GZ25 45 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 His shoot still weak, he must try to shoot at the top corner more often chillerz 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustafa 885 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 His attitude was top class. He showed hunger, which we were a bit surprised at... That can't be a good thing right? Nothing more irritating than a player who just doesn't show up sometimes and is passive af! I really hope we get to see more of THIS Hazard for extended periods of time.Consistency is the word.

Rkk 17 Posted September 14, 2014 Share Posted September 14, 2014 Really like his cutting inside and take a shot,if he did more of that he can rack up easily 20 goals per season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never slowed down when he got the ball, I haven't seen him this good since mancity/newcastle last season. Brilliant He wants to have better stats then last season. In the end they will compare players to him and say hazard did not score or give assist as much as that player. Did he played on the 10 in a more free roll? Only saw motd.

He got an awful shit-ass France into the WC final in 2006 and got them two titles before that. Now, because we have Ronaldo and Messi in their prime, with the two best teams in the world playing for them, we see these two getting insane stats that have changed the level we rate players on. This doesn't mean you can't become a legend without being top scorer every season. Hazard just needs to keep playing his game and be important to the team.

Btw the players of his quality like Reus, Ribery, Robben, Mueller...etc all got around double figures for goals and/or assists every season, so really now that has to be the minimum for him to be compared to them. People won't remember him for dribbling past 4 players then shot at the GK, they will talk about his through ball like Di Maria gave 1 to RVP today or that goal he scores which win us the game against a top team.

But talking about numbers: Hazard already won a French Title/Cup, a UEFA Cup and several individual honors at 23. He's been into double figures (League + Europe) since 2009, scoring 10, 12, 22, 13 and 17 goals. I have no info on the number of assists. Some of you guys act like he never scores a goal...Robben never went into double figures for Chelsea, only for Bayern. Ribery does not score much more than Hazard, neither does Muller for Bayern. Also, how many more assists would Eden have had if Torres didn't blow half the perfect passes he gave him. I can remember at least three clearly from last season.

Only saw motd.Sorry I just saw your quote He played in the wing but he moved around on the dribble. He specifically dribbled towards the box at every chance, he never slowed down the game or dribbled to less dangerous places and got about 3-4 Swansea players booked while they tried to stop him going into the box. He was directly involved with the 2nd and third goals, Infact this was a performance that can win a man of the match without scoring or assisting.

meetdoscar 335 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 When he plays like dat and doesn't get man of the match it shows the calibre of our squad. He was really good when he was on the ball and looked much closer to his finished product, he looked polished. A big contrast to his game vs everton.

DH1988 1,348 Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Considering he (and the team) played for 45 minutes those stats are impressive, but less impressive that we seem to be a 45-60 minute team, at the moment, early days.
