🇧🇪 Eden Hazard

[DYC. 7,542]

Incredible!

Well that's the other thing, in the long term does that mean they would be able to play until 34/35? Who knows. I think Oscar could manage because his pace isn't what gives him his edge so he can probably adapt as he gets older.

For Hazard, it's more his dribbling and skill and less so pace. I'm sure Mourinho and our medical department use plenty of effective warm down and injury prevention techniques so he can handle the busy workload. Unfortunately, this season we need players like Oscar, Hazard, Cesc & Azpilicueta to play probably 90% of our games so we can excel domestically and in Europe.

Yeah I'm clueless when it comes to this kind of stuff. But you would assume they know what they're doing, yeah.

I do wonder though, would the quality of the games improve if the players played less? As a fan of football, I enjoy the many games I get to see, it's great. But if less games meant a higher quality of games, I would prefer less games. Football can be great but it can also be incredibly boring.

"When I saw Eden in the box I wasn’t surprised, but I was surprised to see him score with his head. He jumps a lot but normally he closes his eyes, it was a very good goal." -Mou

That last sentence is hilarious. "He normally closes his eyes."

Hazard

When will the contract extension take place again?

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

‘We made an agreement: he didn’t play against Sporting, I gave him four days’ holiday, he went somewhere with nice weather, where he could take his shirt off and get some sun. He told me he would come back fresh and you could see the happiness in his legs.’

happiness in his legs

I love his bromance with Oscar and ever since Pat made that comment in his analysis that they look for one another - especially Hazard for Oscar - when they're playing, I kept an eye on it today and that's absolutely true. These pics are too precious

Oscar really looks like a kid on them, lol

I think Hazard was superb today. It wasn't even one of his best matches today, he's played much better games for us in the last two and a half seasons, but it was how decisive he was. He won us the match when we were nothing special at all. That's what I want to see from him. I love the dribbles, the runs, the flicks, but I think what he really needs is to win us matches more often and I feel like he's made a lot of progress on that this season. He's still so young and he can and will grow so much, it's scary to think the heights he could/will reach.

He stepped up the moment we needed him the most - when our creative outlet wasn't playing. That's the most important thing imo.

Can't believe Hazard actually scored with his head! Almost as funny as when Mikel finds the back of the net.

[chelseafc9010 224]

Hazard has his hair thicker finally, hate it shorter.

[illmatic 901]

Great movement in the area, but the center of Oscar is a fucking guided missile remote-controlled.

[mikeholiday 209]

The one and truly untouchable. No can replicate his ability to receive the ball under pressure and drive it forward. Contract renewal please.

[Special Juan 28,141]

The ball from Oscar was every bit as good.

[sutro 1,026]

The ball from Oscar was every bit as good.

totally, to me both of them are our golden future

Actually, I think you need to look at the reverse angle to really appreciate Hazard's run. When Oscar first receives the ball he's still a few meters in front of the halfway circle, and then he sprints all the way into the box and no one could have picked him up.

CUTEST THING EVER

Actually, I think you need to look at the reverse angle to really appreciate Hazard's run. When Oscar first receives the ball he's still a few meters in front of the halfway circle, and then he sprints all the way into the box and no one could have picked him up.

Also Oscar said in his post-match interview that he saw Eden asking for the cross. You can see when he looks up, and he must have seen some small gesture by Eden, because I see nothing.

Anyway, it was a superb cross, perfect weighted and spotted, but it was also a brilliant run and a perfect header. His movement and jump to head it make it look like he does it every other week. You wouldn't even say he jumps with his eyes closed - because he really does, I've seen it before, as Mourinho said.

[CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625]

The most amazing thing is that he's only 23. Just imagine his peak football. And Oscar's...

*drool*

[Kieran. 6,317]

I like how he points at his head when he scores a header. yes Eden we're surprised too

[lionsden 4,689]

Lovely assist for Costa who hadn't been getting much service recently. He looked to have that little burst of speed back that he didn't have against Newcastle.

Does Hazard really need to play against Derby? Another week off (next game after Derby is on a Monday) could really allow him to get his legs back before the flurry of games.

Hazard, Matic,fabregas, JT and Costa have to be rested against Derby. it's that simple

[Gilvorak 3,734]

Just read his last 11 PL goals have all come at home. Awful stat, needs to start producing starting from Stoke.
