I'm still 50/50 on this, whether he stays or goes.

I do know that he is irreplaceable.  But, we bought him before he was Hazard as we know him now, we'll have to find another.  

This uncertainty could possibly be the reason that we weren't so keen to let Willian leave this past summer.  Everyone knows he's irreplaceable, so you don't drop all of that money on a ready-made replacement, they don't exist.  If he leaves, we could move Willian over to the left (where he's better) and buy a couple of younger wingers who have the potential to be our main man in the future.

Let's see what happens.  I still think Madrid would prefer to have Neymar.

I just puked a little in my mouth at the thought of another year with Willian. We have let go far better talent than this bum.

Try FIVE more years if they give him that 3 year extension. FFS our board are numpty cunts. 

There is a ready-made Hazard replacement 

Mbappe

But zero chance Roman drops that tyoe of quid, especially as we are going to get raped on the Hazard sale and also his visa ban by the UK government.

He needs to sell the club IMHO. We desperately need a new stadium to compete with the other big 10 or so euro clubs revenue-wise as well. We also are going to get burnt to ash if that FIFA 8 max loanee rule comes into effect. We will have to sell over 30 players into an insanely flooded market.

Massively choppy waters dead ahead.

That is true but IIRC, Ronaldo didn't remind everyone like every other week that he wanted to go to Madrid, no? We have known for years that Hazard fancies Real but does he need to remind us so many times? It's bad/worrying enough to see your best player want to go elsewhere but I don't think we need to get reminded about it so often and be seen like a second grade club compared to the other one!

 

Yeah, you can debate on whether he should or should not talk about a potential move mid-season but IMO that's just who Eden is!

He's been here for so long, and we know he speaks candidly, and lot of times tongue-in-cheek. As long he still performs on the pitch when playing for us, I don't see why we should be too concerned at this point.

Nice of Sky Sports to twist his words completely to one side...

You should see the latest Sky sports youtube video on Hazard.

 

Stuart Pearce talks about Liverpool or City coming in for Hazard, and how we should be afraid. How clueless can these pundits get???

And I thought I'd heard enough punditry nonsense for one season from Stewart Robson.

Football aside, who the fuck would chose to live in scouserland or mancville over Madrid?? Lololol

Bit prejudiced here, but if no London in England, no Vesper in England. Same for Stockholm with Sweden. Spain, France, Italy, Germany have multiple cities we would live in.

Tell Loserpool to give us Mané, Firmino, Robertson, and Joe Gomez and they can have Hazard. They can have Alonso if they toss in Alexander-Arnold.

Tell Shitty to cough up Sané, Bernardo Silva and Gabriel Jesus and Eden is theirs. They can even have Willian if they toss in Mendy, lolol.

PL POTM....

who else but Eden? deserved player of the month award.

[Blue Armour 4,710]

Well deserved.

I've said this before, and this is my opinion,..I think all of us should feel relaxed about the Hazard situation.

As Chelsea fans we should really know by now, how Hazard speaks to the media. Its almost always tongue-in-cheek, trying to take the piss (that's what our club as a whole does to other teams, I think ). What I found most amusing is how the media outlets have taken all his words at face value, Sky especially. This has led to all the Real Madrid bloggers and bandwagon fans going crazy. Reports about a January move as well, until Hazard squashed that rumor himself yesterday.

The most important thing to me is that Hazard has said that no matter what happens next season, he will not leave Chelsea in a difficult situation. He is not a Raheem Sterling or not an Alexis Sanchez

Mbappe will not be interested in joining us. Pretty sure of that and unless PSG are sanctioned for FFP, they will not sell him either. Also, I only see Mbappe moving to Real if he was to move.

[kellzfresh 7,229]

I remember when I was an advocate of Mbappe hoping and praying we get him early while he was in Monaco. What a player he's turned out to be, incredible.

Hopefully we try to get Malcom from Barcelona if we cant get Hazard to stay in the summer.

What. Hazard wants to work with Mourinho again? Is this just PR BS talk or he genuinely wants to.

You should know hazard by now he likes to talk on international duties about things

Hazard has never publicly said a bad word about Mourinho. He's always been respectfull when talking about Mourinho. This isn't any different. 

He was asked directly if he would we willing to work under Mourinho again. What did you expect him to say ?  "Work under that nutjob again ? Fuck no. "

The media has a lot more access to players when they are on international duties. Also easier to schedule interviews when he's in Belgium then when he's with his family in england.

Sarri on Hazard...

https://www.football-italia.net/129263/sarri-hazard-and-chelsea-can-grow

“Hazard is immense and I don’t think even he knows how much he can still improve. I said he could end up in the tight circle of the best three or four players in the world.

“The problem is he plays to enjoy himself and at times doesn’t realise the importance of moving from fun to reaping the rewards. At the end of the day, you’ve got to get the fruits of your labour.

“Hazard’s approach is a positive, but it can become a potential limitation too. He needs to lift his head up, look around and realise there’s a whole world in front of him that he can dictate with his feet for the good of the collective and not just the individual.

“He said such kind words about me, I wasn’t expecting that. His contract expires in 2020, but he’s staying here. I was tempted to use Hazard as a centre-forward and I might consider it again in future, but it’s not the right time now. We need to believe in Olivier Giroud and Alvaro Morata.

[BXL70 400]

The guy is talking quite too much. Real, Ballon d'Or, Mourinho, etc. Every day another story. He is very big headed. Someone should tell him for good he is not Messi or Ronaldo. The players of the Belgian national team and Hazard in the first place are still convinced they were the better team during the WC and they should have won it. It was all down to France, the pitch, the weather, the referee if they did not make it . Wow. He was further disappointed that Real did not even make an offer for him last Summer. After all, I can understand Real. Where was Hazard when we played Barcelona last year? I have seen Messi on the pitch, scoring 3 goals against us; and he shut the f. off. Hazard: start trying score 40 goals in a season, every seasons, and then we could eventually consider that you are a world star. It is not the case for the moment. By far. Calm down mate.

We are Chelsea.

^^ That's how I feel when folks compare Eden with other players, who led their sides in CL and to trophies. I'm not saying Hazard is incapable of doing that, just that he hasn't done that. I personally consider his CL performances, in general, VERY subpar for the player he is.

@Jason IMO Sarri is speaking TO Hazard, not about him. He's telling him what he needs to do to get to the next level. Lift his head up and play to the strength of the team. Football is a collective game, and there is really very little a single player can do if the team does not work.

That side, the vision - seeing the game and the best way to influence it - is what I think KDB had an edge over Eden.

On the contract situation, if Eden wanted to stay he'd have already signed a new deal long before and would be one of the highest paid players in the word. IMO the only reason he has not is because he does want to leave and go to RM. Yes, there is a chance they won't move for him, but I think they will esp because he won't be that expensive being in the last year of his contract. RM can get Neymar AND Eden, or Eden AND Mbappe... yes they are that rich and all players want to go there.

All players talk too much these days.....why that is I do not know. I'd prefer if they were all mute to be honest since they rarely say anything worth listening anyways

[Antonio8 736]

I'm sick and tired of his declarations to the press during national sessions

his desire is to play for real madrid? well, go away chelsea will survive
