When Chelsea beat us at the Etihad in what the media labeled the 'Mourinho Masterclass' Hazard basically beat us on his own. His performance, and I said so at the time, was the best performance by an opposition player I have ever seen either at Maine Road or Etihad. He is a joy to watch and I would love him to wear God's chosen colour of blue.
Seriously?
You must have missed the Dortmund game when Gotze or Gundogan played.
Or when Berbatov, single-handedly helped a ten-man Spurs knock us out of the Worthington Cup.
Or even a half-fit Ronaldinho in a half-arsed friendly game showed his class.
Or perhaps the day Henry came to Maine Road and had them 4-0 by half time.
You might also want to consider the standing ovation Zola got at Maine Road.
And I'm not even going to mention Dalglish owning our place for a decade.
Hazard wasn't even the best player on the night, which was a toss up between Cahill or Matic.
All which would have been moot (as proved a couple weeks later) if not forced to play Demichelis is midfield because of an injury to Fernandinho.
Hazard is indeed a key player for them this season, their only get out of jail free card because he can bring the ball 30 yards upfield.
