Special Juan 28,141 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I'm not comparing but we do not miss Hazard one bit, in fact what we are seeing now is the best thing that could of happened. The ban and Hazard leaving has turned out brilliantly. kellzfresh, OneMoSalah and Alabama 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I think just having more direct players, particularly Mount and Pulisic, are replacing Hazard's influence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is most pleasing for me is his two goals yesterday and against Watford. He seems an intelligent and willing runner into the box to get on the end of things, very much how the likes of Mane, Sterling, etc get a lot of their goals. As he continues to improve and gain confidence he could become a very productive and important source of goals for us. This is what got me as well. He's a lot more intelligent football wise than I thought he'd be from what I've seen. He could become a real threat if he finesses that intelligent off the ball movement skillset. Superblue and kellzfresh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clockwork 1,794 Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 On 11/10/2019 at 6:30 AM, Jason said: We all know Favre didn't fancy Pulisic and it also didn't help that he had little, niggling injuries. Hard to build up any sort of form/consistency when you're in and out of the team. He did finish the season strongly once he recovered and was put back into the team. It was also well known that Pulisic wanted to leave before the season started and wasn't going to extend his contract. That heavily factored in him being out of favor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAPHOD2319 4,818 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 It will be nice when we know the extent of his injury. He seems to be a player that injuries stay with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming his hip injury was caused by him clattering onto the post for the goal, then I would to believe that it's nothing serious. Maybe a minor bruised hip or something. Celebrated his goal then and even in the dressing room later on etc. 9 hours ago, ZAPHOD2319 said: He seems to be a player that injuries stay with him. You're talking about his injury record? This was just an unfortunate one and it's not like it's a muscle injury or something like that. And besides, Dortmund always have players injured every week. Our injury record overall is a lot better than theirs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our injury record overall is a lot better than theirs. He has been dinged for long periods at Dortmund and for the US team. It is often not a major injury, just a lingering small injury. He was also a very young man, so I hope the training and strength training that Chelsea is doing will help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh? Totally missed that but after checking the comments, he did say it! 😬 But still don't think it's anything too serious, especially after Berhalter's explanation for his withdrawal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryebread 22 Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 Not sure why others on here value Favre’s assessment of Pulisic over Tuchel’s. Having watched Dortmund for several years, Pulisic was clearly highly valued by Tuchel. His lack of playing time last year was most certainly due to injury and Pulisics expression of his desire to move to the premier league. He got a minor injury and Farve put Sancho in and Sancho performed. Why would Favre take out an in form player for a player not in future plans? People really need to understand these circumstances. Besides, his quality is there for all to see. Clearly Chelsea saw the situation clearly and pounced on a quality player. the wes and OneMoSalah 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
