whinni09 37 Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I do think that Hazard should play as our CAM. We've had more opportunities with him there and Mata has som decent crossing, better then Hazard imo. Put down Oscar as CM and play Marin as right wing.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted November 30, 2012 Share Posted November 30, 2012 This man is going to be the new Chelsea pin-up, replacing Drogba. He is just an iconic player - he has that Ronaldo-esque look. Not to mention he's an incredible player. I genuinely believe that if we keep this guy for four to five years, that we'll have had one of the great players of this generation.

Hostedenis 556 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 I thought he played well today. He was dangerous a couple of times, a shot was saved and a lob over the keeper unfortunatly went over the goal as well. Him and Moses, together with Cahill and possibly Mata were our best men on the pitch. Those two didn't deserve to be substituted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything, Mata probably should have gone off. Was poor in that second half. CHOULO19 and The only place to be 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDA 9,941 Posted December 1, 2012 Share Posted December 1, 2012 There's something in the way Eden is conducting himself on and off the pitch that tells me he knows that everything is going be ok in the end at Chelsea for him and our current Chelsea squad, apart from Torres. I really hold a lot of respect for Eden, he seems a genuinely nice geeza and ultimately a top professional.

Belgiannutt 3,201 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 Watching old YT videos of him when he played for Lille. So strange how big a difference there is between then and how he's playing now. He used to just dribble defenders for fun. Make complete fools out of them. Now it's like he's afraid to take defenders on.Maybe it has to do with low confidence or just adapting to the pace of the PL or something. I don't know but i'm not worried. He's got far too much talent to fail. Eventually he'll start to dribble defenders again like he did at Lille.He'll find his ritme again. When he does we'll be in for one hell of a show.I swear couple of years from now people are gonna go "32 million for Hazard ? Bargain."

Eggman 118 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 It's not easy to dribble past player in epl, the game is just more physical.I have no problem with hazard, I think everybody knows he will become very goodI think it must have something to do with the directions he's been given by the manager(s). In Belgium's national squad, Marc Wilmots (manager) has instructed him to play sober and simple, and not try to force it. Perhaps this is because there is a lot of pressure on him, being a top signing and a top earner at the club. When he takes on too much, and occasionally fails, this might cause a sh*t storm of reactions from all sorts of haters that love to see a promising prospect fail.I would suspect that RDM equally protected Eden by taking away some of the pressure, insisting that it is not up to him to always make the action. In sum, I don't think that he plays bad; only he does not add to the team what he undoubtedly can, that extra spark of creativity. If you see that Kevin Mirallas in Everton succeeds in making these kind of offensive dribbles, then surely Eden (who has a lot more potential) must be able to really crack the opposition too.Mata seems to be the man who takes responsibility and attempts to force the openings now. Which is astonishing, being only his second season at the club. Let us hope that Eden is backed by a manager who encourages him to progressively put more risk into his game, to the point that he is his sparkling and stylish self again.

kellzfresh 7,229 Posted December 4, 2012 Share Posted December 4, 2012 He is just like young messi at 2004-2006, obvious talent and dribling but afraid to take charge. I hope he matures like messi did and tries to use his dribling talent to win games soon. termninja 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
