Eden Hazard

[mediator 2,026]

Beautifull assist of KDB for a sitter of Benteke

[Jusek 2,031]

Hazard off, played 55 minutes.

Hazard off, played 55 minutes.

That sounds worrying? Are you sure it is not an injury reason or is it just to give him a bit of a rest?

[Hamilton 2,120]

Not good today, understanding the early substitution..

No, he just wasn't really present this match. Damn

[LukakutoStamford 779]

Although he did nearly score on that cheeky chip.

[Hamilton 2,120]

He should have scored..

[LukakutoStamford 779]

He should have scored..

Agreed. Seems like he's suffering from Messitis when it comes to playing for the national team. I just hope he can get it together and start making a big impact as the NT needs him play well to qualify and have the ability to do some damage in Brazil should Belgium qualify.

[Hamilton 2,120]

I fear that he won't start tuesday..

If i could choose i would start same team but Mertens in stead of Chadli..

[mediator 2,026]

I hope he will be rested and that dembele and vertonghen will play 90'. They would be tired for the chelsea vs spurs game haha ^^

Nothing from Hazard in the match, and that one on one chance should've been a goal...I'm happy about it though

bad game of eden last night,newspapers here in belgium taking him down.

on the bright side,each time he plays bad for our national team,he plays brilliant for chelsea so spurs should be verry afraid ))

I want Hazard to be more aggressive on the field.

[Jack Uzzi 54]

He says he constantly had three players around him, and that was true. Belgian media focus a lot on his performances and expectations are very high. The reason why he does not really live up to those expectations have imo both to do with the choices Wilmots makes (not many midfielders to combine with high in midfield) and with him indeed not showing much aggression.

[The Skipper 20,593]

There will be a moment in time where Hazard will realise that he'll always have 2/3 players constantly marking him. When he's enlightened about that he'll step his game up to a new level. I believe he has the ability to do that.

Talking about him being unaggressive, I remember from the game against Norwich when he got the ball deep and had acres of space in front of him to run to, but he just jogged a little and passed it back to Terry. I don't know what that was all about, he could have easily run higher up the pitch. Could it actually be that he's low on confidence? Perhaps he's not feeling too well here yet. But when he gets in the mood and isn't being all lazy, he's a joy to watch.

I dont think thats the problem.. or atleast i hope it isnt. Eden is the type of player (like Messi) who knows when to take on defenders and try to create a chance for himself and when to just pass and let the ball do the work. But im still waiting for Hazard to take free kicks for us or atleast get a chance every once in a while..
