Don't think he's the man for this role. Think Chelsea was a bit too stretched and when not having a lot of ball possession, there's no point in playing without a striker. Yesterday I believe Torres was actually necessary, however bad his form may be.

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

If we are to judge him on his effectiveness playing as a 'False 9', we need to have him being tried there several more times before effectively passing judgment on him. Yesterday was only the first time we played him there and it was never gonna be an instant success immediately. Additionally, it was always gonna be tough against Juventus 3 CBs and 3 physical ones at that! Even if Hazard drops deep and float around elsewhere, 1 CB could still man mark and follow him around with Juventus then still having 2 spare men to cover the space vacated by that CB and prevent any of our runners to get clean through on goal.

I agree. I think It could work given the right guidance and if he works on his shooting.

The way we played did make it difficult for a false 9 to work. We didn't retain possesion enough. The amount of times Hazard received a proper ball last night could be counted on 1 hand.

About his finishing. He's just not used to getting into goalscoring positions. At Lille he was always the player that gave the assist or pre assist. Rarely was he the one who got on the end of chances because there just wasn't anyone good enough in his team to regulary put him in goalscoring positions.

Don't worry his finishing will improve as he gets into these positions more and more. Imo experience plays a big factor.

He made 12 field goals last year?! When he got in front of the goal he always kept cool & finished...

He just had some bad luck with his finishing lately! How lucky was Buffon yesterday? Lets be honest on this one...

Juve's goals got deviated in the goal & Hazard's ball gets deviated out of it...

A 32 m player should be more clinical in front of goal.

He didnt even got half the chances Sturridge or Torres had on goal... Mata & Oscar missed great chances aswell yesterday...

Luis Suarez misses chances in 1v1, Aguero does so. Even Messi doesnt score his chances 1 outa 2... So why expect Hazard to do that?

STOP EXPECTING THE IMPOSSIBLE.

Chelsea doenst CREATE enough chances! Thats the main issue!

He tried. While skipping past one, he hit the ball and It deflected a lil while going between the goalies legs. Fuck sake. Stop the fucking whining. Mata, missed, Oscar missed, Mikel always misses and our striker doen't even try. Ow, you do know he (and oscar ) are new, settling in and are also fucking young? This shit happens, nothing to do with 30 mil. Wanker. Fuck sake!

Forget Torres (I was never a Torres fan). But we did not pay 32m for sturridge. Last season Sturridge saved us many times. Hazard is yet to come out at times when we needed him. He has not done any thing so far to be even equal with Sturridge. He has missed two sitters against QPR, then another one in Turin at a critical time. A top player with 32m price tag should have atleast scored one of them
