Eden Hazard

I couldn't help but think while watching Hazard yesterday: "if we had a Hazard physique with a Juan Mata brain and maybe plus 4 centimeters height..." In the bigger picture, I still think Chelsea can pass and move more quickly during some sequences in possession, but Hazard needs to fashion some better chances for himself and others regardless.

I'm very happy for Ake yesterday.

Height doesn't matter in football except you are GK or CB...

If Hazard would be taller he certainly wouldn't be able to do his low gravity dribbling, in which only Messi is better at.

Simply magnificent yesterday. But despite that, I did not vote for him for MOTM for a simple reason:

I thought that throughout the game he was simply unstoppable up until the final third where he was guilty on many occasions of trying to over-do things. Tried to be a bit too cute at times and I don't like when players do that. I don't like when someone tries to showboat and only go for the spectacular even when we're 3-4 up against a team like Maribor.

Keep it simple and just get the job done. Other than that he was purely magical at times.

Glad he tried to over do things in this match and get some momentum ready for United if I'm honest after hearing Jose's conversation with Eden's father, there are games where you can be focused/disciplined and I don't think this was one for obv reasons.

Nice to let the leash off but we're kidding ourselves if we are expecting this going forward against teams that we need to be tactically aware of, i.e. Sunday.

More hunger, more runs off the ball, more direct dribbling into the box, more shots. Fantastic performance, do this in more matches even if it doesn't end in goals and we'll be moving from a discussion of a wonderful talent to a ballon'd'or contender.

I'm 100% sure Hazard missed one PK for Chelsea. Don't remember against who it was though.

I don't know a better PK taker than Eden. Who needs power and accuracy when you let the GK make the first move..

Against Norsjeland in CL... I think :-)

I think it was in his first season in the League Cup or in FA Cup. From that moment David Luiz started taking the penalties.

Time to step up, Eden. Time to step up...

Great goal.

Despite the goal Eden scored the other day and the brilliant game he had, his finishing and goal-scoring needs some work. He's a bit hesitant in the box and his decision-making was questionable at times. He could have scored more. He deserved to score more.
