Eden Hazard

I'm Not sure... he wants to play?...

[Stingray 9,441]

He knows his talents. He tried and couldn't do it. Hazard has played similar to this in his chelsea career too. He is passive 90% of the time until he gets a chance and goes past a defender. Can we please stop overrating Hazard's talents. He's not a Messi/Robben/Neymar type player; Hazard is similar to Iniesta and Gotze

Only one thing: Lets see. I have a feels despite Belgium Hazard might do well for a club. There was once a player like this, no?

Hazard better make runs next year, because Cesc and Costa are not the friendly kids around the block and definitely very vocal.

[Chelsea? 892]

He'll do good for us as he's done for the last 2 years. You just can't expect him to dominate big games. Hazard is a very good player, but its not very difficult to stop him

You guys are unbelievable. Yes, he flopped at this world cup, but he had awesome season with Chelsea. Ronaldo had a shit world cup; does that make him a shit player then?

Neymar was bad for Barcelona, but turned up for brazil and everyone is wanking all over him. Cut him some slack

hopefully in a 433 he'll play the free role. Willian/Shurller and Costa can make the runs, even Oscar

I'd worry more about Oscar and the other underperformring 'stars'. Chelsea's attack was all Hazard last season. Fickle much or just not that bright?

nothing was said in this thread other than: Hazard has had an awful World Cup.

He has the ability to be unplayable just like the three you named and has proven it at times with us.

Wish José would just hammer it in his head to try to play similar to Robben. Constantly run at your marker and keep him on edge. Play at a high tempo more consistently and take the game to the opponent rather than waiting for something got open up.

Oscar didn't really underperform for Brazil and was chelsea best player before jose changed the tactics in the beginning of January.

Hazard doesnt run, which has been existent since forever. With the acquisition of Cesc and Costa, hazard nor oscar will not have the leeway of getting put in their place. Chelsea attackers are all young, now with 2 veterans, this crap won't be tolerate from the midfield players., whether its oscar or hazard.....

the amount of stick lukaku and costa got for their performances, should not hazard be judged on the same thing!!!

Lukaku got a stick for being too full of himself, saying he is a complete striker and whatnot. I don't think Hazard or Costa said something similar so they imo should not get hammered.

[Weckerz 3,781]

Do some people really feel he should get hammered? Think I'm leaving the forum for the night

[nono 791]

Poor game but some people make me feel embarrassed to be a Chelsea fan.

[xPetrCechx 13,563]

look like he didn't care... gave maybe 30%.

[nono 791]

Belgium's biggest problem was they simply could not get him involved because Argentina were defending with 10 men all game after than quick goal. Their midfield was poor with Witsel and Fellaini. You guys keep talking about runs but there were numerous times where he got into good positions but they could not pass it to him leaving him visibly frustrated !!!!

People in future should give Lukaku a chance based on how he performs for the club rather than how poor he was for 2 WC games. But yeah some fans are bloody fickle nowadays. Hazard had a bad world cup but I guarantee that Hazard will still tear apart the PL next season and should we give Lukaku a role here he will prove his point.

Top post. he's one of the most passive players around.If he had even a quarter of Robben's killer instinct and aggressiveness/directness he would be talked about as one of the best players in the world legitimately. given his natural ability, he just couldn't be bothered to maximize his talent and content with letting games pass him by.

Until he develops the "losing is not an option" mentality and really doing everything necessary to win, I doubt he will ever reach the height people have predicted for him.
