A year ago, after the WC, Hazard told the club he wanted to go to Real. We told him he was staying. Real were getting Courtois and that was going to be their lot for one summer we said. He could have sulked, he could have downed tools, he could have gone on strike, much as Courtois did until he got his move, but Eden's made of different stuff, he's not your typical superstar footballer. He stayed, he gave his all, he sparkled, he got us into the CL almost singlehandedly let's face it.
 
Yes we could have got more for him last summer, but we wouldn't be in the CL today, so whatever we get for him this summer he's more than made up for the deficit. We could get nothing for him and we've still done good business, because that CL pot of gold awaits. We should get as much money as we can but we have to grant him his wish, so we shouldn't let money be the sticking point. He's given us 7 years. We've had one of the top 3 players in the world, for 7 years. We've had the PL's best player, for 7 years. 7 years is a lot. He could have gone at any time, to any club he fancied. He's an absolute Chelsea legend, by far the most talented player to ever play for us, and because I love you all I don't want any of you to argue, because you'll only embarrass yourselves, and I wouldn't want that, purely out of love.
 
7 years ago Nibs described him as a poor man's Joe Cole. Nibs is a shedend legend of course. We'll forgive him that one on the basis that even the best struggle for form from time to time. Eden said he wanted to leave like a boss. The result on Wednesday was never in doubt. We shall miss him but he goes with all of our blessings. I hope he does well and I hope we see him in the white of Real Madrid at Stamford Bridge.
 
So long Eden. We know you love the club, and we sure as hell all love you.

Hazard is rubbish, I dont know why any top team would ever even go near him, and he causes trouble all the time, pinching other kids sweets, giving them wedgies, not listening in class. So to sum up, no one should ever buy him...EVER....
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Just in case anyone from Madrid is reading...

If you treat current or former Blues like that you have no right to call yourself a Chelsea fan.

He got a bit too much stick in the match thread today in my opinion. It sounded to me like people expected miracles from him. I would rather focus on the positives of his performance than the negatives. If i was to focus on the negatives, than i could rip Costa apart for some of the things he does every game. 
He got a goal, an assist and his hold up play, linking up with the midfielders, first touch and movement was really good. His finishing wasn't as sharp as i would like it to be, but i'm not going to hold that against him seeing as he hasn't had much game time all season. It was still a 7 out of 10 performance though which is something we haven't been getting from many of our strikers in recent seasons.
