Jase 43,479 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Seems like Hazard is tasked with taking more set pieces under Sarri but just like with everyone else, he's pretty rubbish at them. Can't even beat the first man during a corner! Also, his reluctance to shoot when in good positions is truly, really, fucking infuriating!

Yeah, that always baffles me, how can guy be so good technically yet so poor at set pieces (apart from penalties)? Simon1991 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Thor 2,817 Posted August 26, 2018 Popular Post! Share Posted August 26, 2018 Thought he was below par today in the first half but then grew into it and had a good second half. Think he should change his game around. Carry the ball more in the second half against tired legs, but move the ball quicker with passes in the first. Felt he held onto the ball too long and slowed us down at times with his twists and turns. Johnnyeye, !Hazard!, manpe and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eden needs more time to get used to the system, the way we're playing now he absolutely has to be moving the ball quicker and not slowing down our attacking movement. It says everything that needs to be said about him though, that even though he's still not nearly up to speed he still walks away with MOM. When his game starts properly clicking with the rest of the team, its going to be a sight to behold. Thor and Johnnyeye 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its either Conte was even more defensive than Mourinho or Mourinho's tactics was really to "give the ball to Hazard and see what he can do".

Unionjack 7,532 Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I think that MAYBE Eden is just confused. We went thru Mou playing his defend at all cost first policy which absolutley took all of the attackers primal instincts from them then a year of the Don who said come on lets take it to them then a year of hmmm lets think twice before we go for goal. And now we have a manager who says we need to score loads goals because we might let a few in and its the way we are goimg to win I just think he needs to be taking more shots and doesn't always need to dribble into the box or cut inside. But its good just seeing him not moping around with his hands om his hips. Sarris giving him his swag back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought he was immense and very involved more centrally in Conte's title winning season. But today it was visible that he had many touches, I immediately thought this must be the most he's had for us, and so it was. But I agree with the point stated above, he needs to pass quicker and not hold on to the ball so long like he did in 1st half (what we say about Willian a lot).

Yeah its something that Willian gets slated for a lot but Eden has done it in the games. Still think hes maybe getting used to how Sarri wants us to play. Pedro knows the score, he just gets it pops it off at the right time and moves, Eden needs to incorporate this into his game at times but think this will come, other than that good to see hes opened his account for the season, heres hoping he can get 20+ this year.

I think that we are getting bogged down in the middle of the pitch. Both Eden and Kovacic are used to be the ball carriers but for a Sarri team to work proper it revolves around off the ball movements to release those third player runs. And its not as important for Eden to do his long dribbles. Its quicker to do a pass. Both Eden and Kovacic can do the same job but they are going to run into each other specially with Eden and his cutting into the center of the pitch. But because we have been a continuous team that counter attacks and we have relied heavily on Edens dribbling to get past men but when we are having so much posession Edens got to change his game too He has to remember we aren’t a defensive team anymore and play on his left side like he did with Mou’s first half of the season’s 2014/2015.

kellzfresh 7,229 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 His refusal to shoot is slowing down the target I've set for him at 35 goals + assists this season. But even at that, he's already scored 2 goals and 2 assists in few games... 31 more to go Blue Armour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
