That's decidedly false. Say want you want about Chelsea but Hazard is a beast. He's been either PFA Player or the Year or come 2nd in voting in 3 of his 6 full seasons at Chelsea. That is an astonishing record. He's been either Player of the league or in the Team of the Year in 9 of his 11...

In away games you need wingers on both flanks. Bernado Silva has started the season very well but i'll rather see one of Mahrez or Sane playing from the start. There was a clear lack of penetration in the attack today.

Jorginho is not a DM either but he's more defensively aware than Kovacic. My biggest problem with Kovacic is he's not had a stretch of meaningful football for several years. He's not developed to be a better player than he was at Inter

It means everytime he dribbled past a player last season, he had an 82% chance of being successful. It's ridiculous actually because the likes of Messi and Neymar are not even close to 70%

You must not have watched the game against Japan when he was so poor and wasted many golden chances. KDB and especially Hazard have been Belgium's best players quite clearly

If he's P4P and I'm not doubting he is because I think he is the top boxer in the world right now after the Linares win (edging out Crawford for me) then there's NO reason why he can't go up even further to super lightweight and eventually welterweigt. Mayweather moved up 5 weight classes...

I don't think there's anything in that that suggests he'll stay there. This is more revealing. This was just after the FA cup final: He's been making such remarks in recent weeks, what can be called "passive-aggresive". Like saying he wants to play with "good players" He's been largely...

The Swedish player Kevin Ackermann looks a real prospect for them.

This is my take on the Hazard rumours. For the person who said Hazard doesn't "carry" Chelsea. He's been carrying them since he was 22. And this is supposed to be a down season in which him and Chelsea have struggled. He's consistently one of the best creator and dribblers in world football...
