Hazard is getting a really rough deal it would appear.
He's a young lad with a young family to consider and signing away the next five years of his life.
Some pertinent facts, unlike the links to both United and Chelsea, only one club has taken the trouble to invite him to their stadium and show him properties.
Only one club and one manager has put across their plans, hopes and long-term visions.
Just like Yaya, Silva and Nasri, this episode shares a lot of hallmarks, the late entry of another club etc.
There are three players at Chelsea in Lampard, Torres Terry who have parity clauses which keep them in line with the top earner at the club.
The top line is way below £200k a week, and yet we see ridiculous sums of £300k a week now being thrown into the mix for Hazard.
Abramovich will not pay those sums, and neither will we.
The boy will have his say, let him have it when it is only relevant to do so.
