I hate Eden Hazard because he hasn't already scored 200 goals for Chelsea and he because was bought for £32 million and because other people like him and because other people hate him and because he h

Our generation is going to be able to boast about watching Hazard don the Chelsea royal blue just like the one before us boasts about Zola.

It's different. That time was amazing, but it was all about signing world stars who were already established and in some cases a bit past their best. When it began with the likes of Gullit, Hughes, Vialli etc. It was great but in some cases there were only flashes of the old them. Zola was already 30 when we signed him and very much at his peak.

Hazard is the first player in blue I've ever seen who has the potential to be the biggest player in world football. Lamps, JT, Maka and Cech could all stake a claim to being the best in their position for a time but I don't think any has reached the level that Eden could (Lamps was closest in 2005). I actually think the same could be said for Oscar too.

Honestly speaking, I think you might have to go all the way back to Jimmy Greaves for another example of us having such a young talent at our club.

While i agree with most of your post , im not that sure about the Oscar part.

Dont get me wrong he has been great for us but im not convinced(yet?) that he has that extra bit thats needed to be the best in the world like Hazard surely got

No I know what you mean, but I was speaking in terms of players that - how do I put it - just blow you away. So while Chelsea had guys like the ones you mention - Vialli, Hughes, Gullit then Lamps, Maka, Didier and recently Oscar and Mata - you appreciate them, you know they're in complete control of what they do and what they want to do (look, what a tackle by Claude! I just knew he'd get there or hey, Lamps arriving unmarked in the box, goal no. 10000) but with Zola and Hazard, they just seem to be able to hit heights you didn't think someone could (fuck, how did he manage to do that?!). They are the definition of a fantasy.

This is delightful news. Unless he starts, it would be perfect ! Cuz if he starts he'll probably end up playing at least 45 minutes. Coming off the bench tho, he'd probably get 30 mins or so.

Also another aspect of this friendly that is somewhat "clutch" is that he's only going to Belgium. No long trips like the Brazilians who went to South Africa. We need him all fired up for Spurs on Saturday :yes:

89 minutes then ? :Goober:

:lol:

Jokes aside though, hope Hazard plays as little minutes as possible. We do not want somebody like Yaya Toure, assuming if he's playing, to go around and kicking the lumps out of him. Similar with Mata in the last 2 seasons, we can't afford to have Hazard getting injured in any way at this point of the season. He's our main man right now.

Yeah that's true. I think he'll play 45 minutes. Our NT manager said he wouldn't risk Hazard and acknowlegded Hazard was tired. Hope he comes back unharmed.

Like you said he's our main man now and we're gonna need him in top form.

Video of this interview?

Wilmots on #Hazard: "I was already considering resting Eden for some weeks,as he has played much. It's still possible he plays 20 mins" #cfc

NICE!! Wilmots is legend! Respect.

Much respect between them, Didier said he is really happy that eden plays for Chelsea. "It's important for his career and his evolution. U Know you've got all the keys in your hands, all the lights are green, it's up to you" exactly like Eto'o said. They know each others when Didier came back from China to train with us.

That was like a mental coaching from him

They will play against each others tomorrow in a friendly (belgium vs ivory coast) and Didier said "i want your shirt @ the end of the game"
