Eden Hazard - Chelsea Legend

Chill out

 

I'm just tired of it, I'm having a tricky time trying to make friends, I've said I'm sorry for when I first arrived and I want to move on from it.

 

But I can't help but feel that you're now starting to quote me on everything for the sake of it. First it was Salah when I made it pretty clear what I said and now over a few words you quote me on this.

 

If we are going to have a problem for the rest of the time I'm here then please just place me on the ignore list.

His reply wasn't aggressive or offensive he was just expressing an opinion, I don't have any problem with you and I doubt he or anyone else does, at the end of the day this is a forum and you gotta be prepared for a bit of banter.

 

Either way i'm sorry you haven't felt welcomed here but i'm sure you'll feel at home in due time.

If you post something that i don't agree with then I'll give you my opinion as to why i dont agree. That's what a forum is about. 

But this is far to consistent.

 

Please mate I'm just tired of the chew, I understand that you want to make fun of me like the Balotelli thread a few days ago you said 'I wonder what his agent will have to say about this' but I really just want to move on from this. I'm tired of making enemies, I came to this forum and took a direct approach and I tried to get under peoples skin in arguments and to be honest I just can't do it anymore. It's really not worth it, at the end of the day you only end up with no friends and people who will show you no respect because of what you did to them.

 

I really just want to move on from all this and quit the whole rivarly and chewy talk.

Have we seen a slight dip in form for him? He doesn't seem to be getting past players as easily (and likes of Bacuna and Mariappa where handling him easily) and look a bit tired in his approach tbh. No problem with his tally for a winger as well but has he was scoring a lot from open play

He was certainly of the boil on Saturday v Palace, but to be honest so was the whole team. He also looked to be trying to find his "strike partner" a lot but never did, and then tried to take a few things on too much himself which led to us getting crammed in the middle of their area far too much.

He seems to be an automatic starter under Jose, and is a fantastic player.  I'm not sure if a rest would do him good, or if he's the type of player that's better suited to play all the time.

Well, like with our style of play, teams are figuring us out, especially Hazard. There is a definite correlation between his dip in form and our inability to beat teams right now. He was our most effective and influential attacking player at the start of season up until about a month ago, then all of a sudden he's gone missing in games and we've struggled against teams due to them doubling up on Hazard. At the moment, we don't seem to know how to cope when Eden doesn't play well and, Jose seems overly reluctant to rest the lad, which In my opinion, is costing us at the moment. If Ronaldo and Messi had plays the amount of games Hazard had played this season, they too would be feeling it by this point in the season. You need your best players rested and fully functional, not running on empty with all the pressure on them to create chances out of nothing every game.

Hazard has played 3 more games than Ronaldo and 7 more than Messi, it's hardly a big difference.

 

I just think he isn't at that level yet. He has been very good at times this season but there have been times where he has gone off the boil, now is one of those times.

 

I don't think he was all that great at the start of the season and it took him 10 or so games to really get going. After that he was on fire, then he dipped again, then he picked himself up again and now he's dipped again.

 

He's still a great player but if he wants to be one of the best he will need to stop having these dips.

We are over reliant on him this year, really needs to likes of Oscar/Willian to step it up. I feel when you have the defensive midfielder of Matic, work rate of Willian, Hazard really should be given more of a free role, especially against weaker teams

Whenever he had the ball against Palace he had at least 2, sometimes 3 defenders on him within seconds, that SHOULD mean that the other players have a lot of space and time to operate with however no-one else seems to know what to do with it, although Salah did alright.

Hazard: "If my wife said, 'Honey, I want to go to PSG' while there, I'll have to take that into account." #CFC
Cut the crap Hazard, if you don't want to move you don't go simple as.

If someone asks you what happens if your wife says something, do you say "I dont give a sh*t what my wife thinks"?

 

It was a loaded question with no correct answer intended to stir up drama.

We managed fine when Zola left, we moved up the league and won another European trophy after Didier left. 

 

End of the day we can adapt so if Eden ever did chose to demand his way out, I am sure we will be just fine. Not that I expect him to, but if he ever does.

Huh? He's with Chelsea right now though; he should at least pretend he wants to be here. From what I gathered it was a comment about his future following interest on PSG, not his wife's opinion. 

 

Belgian players like to talk a bit more as we've seen from Lukaku, Courtois, KDB, etc. Maybe he was joking or whatever though.

I'm going to quote another poster on another forum to give you the real context of the quote.

 

 

It was an interview with Canal+ on Wednesday evening

 

The general gist of the conversation was "you know PSG want you, so will you leave London for Paris?"  Hazard replied in a VERY tongue in cheek (yet diplomatic) manner, that his wife made the decisions.

 

So then they asked him what happens if his wife said she wanted to go to paris.

 

Thats the gist of the situation. I don't speak french though so going on the translation of other posters around the internet who aren't trying to make click bait headlines and quotes.

I certainly hope it was tongue in cheek. Can't help but feel a bit of unease.

 

The interview will be published by 16:20 there though so maybe a bit more will surface...

I think you are being over dramatic. Footballers are normal people too you know, it's just a joke.

ON another note, when Hazard was asked what he thought about Jose calling him the "best young player in the world," Eeden replied that he was very honoured, but would prefer "if we could remove the 'young' from the comment"

 

Allez Eden

Look he will stay. If he f**ks about he gets sold in january. We will not be f**ked about by eden hazard play for us or f**k off don't be fooled our crowd will never be sucked in again with the likes of torres.
