Nihilist: Matic is off form because he is destabilised by not having a competent partner to share his workload. Even if he IS off-form, why don't we have 2 other competent midfielders to rest him? Every big team has 3 or 4 defensive midfielders with a basic level of competence in every aspect of midfield play except Chelsea who only have Matic. Matic and Fab pivot got disgraced severally last season. They were lucky teams were scared at the start of the season and sat back allowing them to breathe and build up points to top the table. As soon as Spurs disgraced our midfield, we had to beg Zouma to play midfield to see us through the season and park the bus to cross the finish line. Even against PSG 10 men, that midfield was overworked and couldn't cross halfway line for fear of counterattack. There is no problem in midfield yet we are conceding 3 goals per game and every talk on here is of which midfield to pick before games to stabilise ourselves? Na you sabi. Ride on. 2 Likes |

FBS: hidden hazard is a fraud! pack his bags & send him to the after life. the moment he said he never feels like scoring more than a goal in a game & he will never score as many as messi/ronaldo was the day i knew hazard is a fraud. |

nateevs: What are these simple midfield tasks that Can and Lucas performed better than Mikel and Ramires today? Should we even be having a discussion about losing a match to the strength of Can and Lucas' midfield play? When will you start holding Hazard accountable? 1 Like |

Ibime: Horrible combo? Maybe Definitely not worse than Can and Lucas. Aside the volume of passes attempted, Mikel and Ramires best the Liverpool duo in nearly every other measurable metric today. They even had a better pass completion rate! Did more defensively too. We did not lose this match because of them. Look at that Sakho pass for Coutinho's second. His passing ability is well known, innit? Our attackers should be pressing him there, deny him the freedom to comfortably spread that pass. 1 Like |

Ibime: Oga you are talking unadulterated rubbish. The entire team stinks from Costa to Terry. Is it midfield that made Hazard miss the pen against Stoke or play nonsense today? In case you forgot, Ivanovic was open like a wh0re till his injury and Courtois was not even positioning himself properly. Be honest with yourself and see that there is no one single part of the team that is rubbish. It's every single aspect of our play... And that surely goes beyond anything called 'midfield' right now. |

"Chelsea's latest defeat means this is their worst start to a league season since 1978/79 with Moanrinho losing 9 of his last 17 games in all competitions compared to just 4 defeats in 54 games last season." Solid form for title capitulation! Cc: nihilist, airmark, kolade354 and mourinholic No need for the expected abuse, I'm just the stats man in need of some analysis! Lol..... |

nitlad: I'm the last ninja you would call a Hazard fan on here! However Hazard is the least of my problems in this Chelsea team. Can and Lucas prevented Chelsea breaking through their midfield to the point the only shot on target was a speculative Oscar chip from halfway line aside the goal from a cross. Meanwhile Ramires was showing Coutinho his number to allow Liverpool score while Mikel was trying to play give me I give you monkey post football in his own half cos he dare not cross the halfway line as snails are allergic to counterattack. That's all. |

Ibime: Mikel was making tackle after tackle aside other defensive works because the Liverpool attackers were asking serious questions. Meanwhile Can barely had up to 5 defensive duties to do because our attackers can't be bothered! Half full or half empty? |

Nihilist: Many parts of the team are rubbish. No one would argue with you. The major part of the team that has no solution to rubbishness is the midfield. Even Ivanovic can be replaced by Azpi. Hazard and co can be replaced by Willian, Oscar, Pedro, Traore, Kenedy etc. What options are there in midfield? There are many teams with rubbish players in certain positions but if the midfield is stable, half the war is won. A strong midfield can protect a shaky defence, a strong midfield can score for an off-form forward line, but no other position can compensate for a weak midfield. What am I saying? You have poor memory! A midfield of Essien, Ballack and Lampard carried Phucking Malouda and Salomon Kalou for 5 years and never failed to compete in semifinals of Champions Leagues or chase the title down to the wire. The midfield is the most important section of the team. That's why they say he who wins the midfield battle wins the game!!! 1 Like |

Its funny that Ivanovic suffered abuse from nearly everyone here yet, Hazard is above reproach. If a player is off form , why not just say as it is. Some will blame everyone and everything except the player. Why worship a player blindly? |

nitlad: It's the simple tasks of finding a 5 yard pass and moving into space. Receiving the ball with your back to goal, under pressure yet still finding a team mate with a good pass. It's knowing when to press, when to speed the game up and essentially when not to run. Having the energy to track back and the intelligence for positional defending. They help the attack and the defence at the same time. Contrast that to when we attack and there is neither Ramires nor Mikel within 5 yards of Hazard to receive the ball and run into forward space. Then you wonder at the same why Can and Lucas had little to do. Do you think Continho how was trying to attack all by himself? 2 Likes |

Things are bad and Jose head no dey dia but we can turn this around. If any player no ready to play ship them freaking out and I don't care who. The best interview so far from Jose. "What have you to say?" Answer "NOTHING" He is clearly disturbed and I want to see how he can coach his way out of this. Let him stay. 1 Like |

nateevs:Funny enough he was. He got the ball not at a very dangerous position, cleared the obstacles, moved himself to a better position and did his magic. Hazard was fork.ing poor since the beginning of this season. A combo of busquets/Gattuzo/Pirlo/Davids and Iniesta for creativity cannot save him. He is in poor form. Simple as ABC. Stop blaming the grass and the town council for this. |

nitlad: Exception rather than the norm. Infact they won the game after Bayern had brought on the youngsters, besides Cazorla and Coquelin are not messing about in that midfield these days and Bayern midfield is regressing over the last 2 years sef. My perception of the game is simple. The goal is in the centre of the pitch and that makes the spine of the team the most important section. Wingers play in an ancilliary position, there to help you stretch the game and create space for the central players to attack the goal. The minute you expect your winger to carry the game, you are setting unfair expectations. 1 Like |

FBS: Ivanovic suffered abuse because he is a shit right back and has always been. He's been that way for many seasons. Some have just been blinded by the goals he scores. This season, he has been found out. In contrast, Hazard was last season's player of the year and made WPOTY short list. EOS. When Hazard ONLY is off form, then we will come out and say yes he is. But when Hazard is 'off form' and Fab is and Costa is and Matic is and JT is, then Off-form starts to become a loosely applied excuse for a more fundamental problem left unsolved. 2 Likes |

coogar: A40: Hazard was Chelsea's best player last year and even early this year. How can a player decline so fast? We have to look at the deeper issue. We are seeing an unhappy player who probably has issues with the manager and it's affecting his game. Hazard is a fantastic player and the whole world knows it except a few nairaland haters. ..lol Contender for best player in the world...lol. Make una leave Hazard jor. 1 Like |
