I understand that but we also have to understand that Courtois and Hazard don’t live and breathe Chelsea. That’s how football is nowadays- all about the money. 

But from REPORTS edens been offered £300k. Aint that enough? Maybe we should omly pay minimum wage but really big bonuses.

Eden has his own aspirations and goals too - that might include playing for Real for example. Expanding on what I said, football players unfortunately aren’t loyal nowadays. Unfortunately Eden isn’t that Chelsea-daft. Can you honestly say that Eden has a real bond with the match going fans like JT or Lamps or Didier did? Unfortunately he doesn’t, or it doesn’t seem like that to me anyway whenever I do go to games.  

Footballers rather further their own aspirations (like Eden) or follow the money. I’m not too surprised by his comments, I should clarify.

Perhaps because there's always been that underlying feeling that eventually he'll move on to Madrid or a team in that mould, even though he's been here for half a decade now.

When one day he does leave some people will be wondering why they didn't just enjoy him instead of worrying all the time.

If that was a sly dig then I dont think I could 'enjoy' him any more even if I was gay. Mind you I wouldn't say no to another couple of goals or assists for his £300k

But like many of his arguably betters before him I shall miss the old boy when he turns his back on us.

Yeah of course I agree with all you say.

But I know like me you would like to have a few like Terry Butcher, Gazza,Paul Ince,Stuart Pearce with their sort of attitude. Dont care what nationality they are just that sort of passion to win for the club they play for AT THAT TIME. If they want to do it when they are at their new club then so they should.

There nust still be that breed about. Maybe in the lower divisions? Or maybe its just supporters now with that trype of passion? I know Ive bled for us a couple of times.

But no mate I'm not suprized by neither of them.

Just playing devils advocate lads and working thru a ummm heated debate I had with my best mate who is a gooner.

Maybe it would be helpful if Hazard didn't feel the need to talk about Real Madrid like every other week!

Oh that we can agree on for sure. Think the closest we have to that right now is Azpi.

Eden Hazard says he will sign a new contract if team-mate Thibaut Courtois pens a new deal first.

Can't believe people actually think Hazard is waiting for Courtois to sign a new contract. They were both clearly joking. 

I highly doubt Hazard is signing any contract until the summer. Not unless he's 100 % sure Real isn't coming for him in the summer.

 

On the whole loyalty talk. 

Sorry but i always find it funny when supporters get on their high horse when talking about player loyalty. 

How many wanted Hazard gone in the 2015-2016 season. How many were spouting insults at Hazard that season. He was even booed at one stage of the season.

This was a player that had been key in getting us the title the year before. So where was the loyalty there ? 

Easy to talk about player loyalty. Simple fact is supporters and clubs aren't any better. We all look after our own self-interest. If a players isn't of value anymore to a club or supporters they'll discard him like that.

Hazard is a bit of a joker I think he was messing about but Hazard and Courtois have a habit talking to media you would think by now the two of them would learn not to talk to them cause everytime they talk to them the media stir the pot about them 

[Chelsea4 1,521]

I completely understand him. Hazard is 27 years old,he desperately needs to go a level higher,to go to a club with more ambition and where he can enjoy football,somewhere where he will be surrounded by equaly good players like he is and where the team will play attractive football.

Most of other fans don't consider him top 5 player, some not even top 10. I guess that's good for a potential of him staying here.

We might be a bit biased as CFC fans, but no one can tell me he isn't top 5.

(I am basing that on social medias comments, and my brother's answer on what he thinks how much Eden would cost, if Coutinho is 145m. He said "the same".)

[FabHazard 655]

Terrible performance...Shoot ffs....does not have the goal scoring instinct....All the talent in the world ....Everyone will judge on goals scored....he does not  have enough to show

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

He's gone down the rails ever since he was moved around positions by Conte. Playing the absolutelty pointless and idiotic "strikerless" system. Hasn't recovered since scoring wise

Hes NOT a striker.

I'm sure that we all thought that putting Eden up with Morata in 352 would be perfect for him but hes not got the same freedom he had in a 343 when both AMs would roam about at will.

Strikers have got that score at all odds mentality and Edens just not got it.

Plus we aren't giving the top 2 the proper service needed as we lack proper creativity and the lads don't go forard together as you can hear Conte screamong all the time.

[kellzfresh 7,229]

His reluctance to shoot is why I think Madrid will rather go for Salah/Dybala than hazard. If we had Griezmann or dybala in those same attacking situations as Hazard yesterday, they would have either scored or made the keeper make a save (which could lift the morale/momentum of our team in that period) 

If Zidane wasn't Madrid coach he wouldn't be on their radar. He plays like a midfielder instead of an attacker (hazard is more similar to Iniesta/Isco than game changers like robben/Dybala) 

Luckily for us, I honestly don't think he'll get to Madrid with this attitude. He's going to be with us longer than he thinks.
