Eden completely changes the dynamic of our team. That's how good he is, in my opinion. He's the difference between winning the league and finishing 4th and that's why it's crucial he gets fit.

I don't think a day goes past without the Daily Star stating that he's going to Real Madrid, clearly they've got nothing better to do, or they lack the intelligence to make up a more believable story.

Very true.

Come back soon pls thx 

Hopefully he will regain fitness pretty damn quickly. Would be nice to see him sign the new contract thats been on offer for a while too, hopefully our lack of ambition in the market won't sway that decision.

Apparently according to Spanish outlet Diario Gol whoever they are Barca want haz and we sad for 109 million he is yours....f**k that 175 at least and even then I'm unhappy because who do you replace him with

The only way we lose hazard and still manage to strengthen would be if we signed both Bale and Alexis with the money we get for him, which won't happen. Therefore we need to point blank refuse any offers for him. 

I can't even begin to imagine the rage at the board if we sold Hazard this window. He's injured though, so it's pretty unlikely.

He will not be sold. If he is, then will finally have genuine reason to critisize the board!

Can't see us selling him, not for any price. 120M is pocket change after the Neymar deal, and potentinally 100M for Coutinho.

Refuse, we love to sell, if the offer is right we sell and probably bring one player and put the rest in the we aren't as rich as we were fund

We're still very rich, but maybe this is the future, Roman had his time of throwing money at the club, maybe he considers it more of a business now and thinks we can still achieve a reasonable level whilst selling on our most valuable. Granted there are some clubs that are still massively profitable and chuck the money about (Real, Man U) but the likes of Psg and man city are making huge losses, for us to get up to the elite we would have that sort of spending to compete with, maybe Roman is not prepared to run the club at a loss and is happy to be a top 4 side running at a profit (Arsenal, Tottenham). Anyway i bloody hope not, how depressing. The next 2 weeks will tell us a lot, on one end of the scale we could spend a further 150m and get in some world Class talent setting ourselves up for a great season and a positive future, on the end of the scale, we flog Hazard and Roman has a huge profit, but we end up with fourth as our new benchmark.

This nonsense of selling players before buying replacements needs to stop. 200m for Hazard because of how crucial he is for us.

I've said it a few times, i wouldn't sell Hazard for any money. Who do you replace him with ? there are no guarantee's we would get anybody near his level and we certainly wouldn't get anybody near his level in this window or the January one. Also, i wouldn't even trust the board to find anybody good enough to replace him. Look us at the moment, it's mid August, the season has begun, we have lost the Community Shield and the opening Premier League game and we still haven't got the team Conte needs to make us competitive. How can we trust them to find a replacement for Hazard when they sell or loan so many players and leave us with a tiny squad ?

Just a gut feeling, I would not be surprised at all if Roman sells a chunk of shares to new investors, or sells a majority size of shares. With the new larger stadium on the horizon, the streamlining of the club, and what appears to be only purchasing what we make in player sales to balance the books.

I always maintained he will not leave us but will the sh*t the board is pulling I wouldn't blame him to want a exdous

Hazard is blue, that's all.

The maestro himself ...Eden Hazard has clearly stated on many occasions that he and his family are very happy in England ...playing for our beloved club...Chelsea ......but obviously there are journalists out there who are trying to earn a living by printing a load of Bollox .....Eden will stay with us....For Now ......please don't get taken in by all the sh*te you read in the media 

No player is loyal or loves the club they play for. That died with the departure of JT. They are all brasses that will sell themselves to the highest bidder when they feel the time is right or they have a tantrum with the manager. 

Look who's back in training. 

Apparently about 2 weeks away for being in contention for selection again. 

 

If we are serious about wanting to challenge the very best, we need at least 3 or 4 players of Hazard's quality. Morata could possibly be one, it's too soon to tell, but if we got in a Sandro and one more of that sort of level, I'd be much more confident for the next few years.

Not going to happen unfortunately it seems roman built an elite club but is now happy to let it become Arsenal 

"I think he has the capacity to win it because, for me, he is a very talented player, a very good player, a decisive player," Nainggolan, who plays for Italian side Roma, told CNN Sport as he reflected on Hazard's talents.

"He makes a difference on the pitch, but the only difference between him and, let's say, Neymar, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Messi, is that they score much more than him."

"So, I think that is the most important thing and it's the only difference between them, because for me Hazard is, let's say, is in world's top five,"

 

I agree with what he said, but I think he missed the thing that Hazard is playing in the best league in the world. I can't see Messi and Neymar doing what they've done in La Liga. A number of goals they have scored are crazy, but space they got there, not going to have here. But I think if Hazard will score more goals, he is definitely will be nominated for the Ballon d'Or.
