Further Proof That Eden Hazard Could Leave Chelsea This Summer
Chelsea winger, Eden Hazard has criticized his manager tactics in the aftermath of the team losing 3-1 at home to Atletico Madrid on Wednesday night to further fuel speculations that the high rated Belgian could be set for the exit door.
The Belgian who was the London club’s only bright outlet of the game but was stifled by the Atletico defenders tactics was disappointed in the manner of the loss, taking a jibe at his manager Jose Mourinho who he claims did not set them u to play football.
“Chelsea aren’t set up to play football,” the former Lille star told beIN SPORTS’ French station.
Chelsea started the game on the front foot, taking the lead before crumbling to a spirited performance from the Atleti players who scored three goals and reduced Captain John Terry to tears at the end.
The 23-year old Hazard was at loss of words as to how the team lost after taking the lead but conceded that Chelsea are better as a counter-attacking side and that Atletico won because they were more determined.
“Chelsea are set up to counter-attack – a little bit like Real against Bayern. I don’t know what we lacked. After scoring, we had the game in our hands. Maybe they wanted it more than we did,” the gifted winger and playmaker concluded.
Jose Mourinho got to the semi-final stage at the expense of French money bags, PSG and earned a 0-0 draw in the first leg in Spain and a 2-0 win at Liverpool last weekend playing a ultra-defensive game which has been chided by the fans and media alike, except, well, Chelsea fans who were cresting on the wave of the Only One’s mind games.
It is not known yet what Mourinho makes of his star player’s outburst and definitely, the last has not been heard.
Eden Hazard or not chelsea is a great team nd has achieved more than some of her canterparts in europ
Some times i say the press is an institution for fools that is something any one can comment about but the press is full of exerggeration and for sure there is no proof of Eden quiting the bridge
Let him leave if he want go back to France but before he make stupid decision he should think of what chelsea Does in his life because before he came to chelsea he was one in France but why don’t Paris see him then, they didn’t see him because he was not good enough for psg then why now when chelsea make him top player . If he go today, chelsea will get a best player than him. Afterall he was also in the team with Jose against Madrid but he didn’t play good football so who is him to critises Jose or threaten chelsea that he want to leave, pls don’t beg him to stay let him make decision about his football career but i can bet this if he go nobody will compare him to any best football and he will never smell world best ballon. Before Ronaldo won world best in Manchester united he work very well but for him he haven’t done half of what ..ronald did in England. He want to be a best player without good hard work, he should work for uefa if truly he want champion league. Beside did he have semi final champion league before he came to chelsea i think he should ask himself about what he contribute to chelsea defeat to Madrid. When he got injury chelsea play good d why is he that when then started him the chelsea. Immediately he got injury against psg we won and defeat then with 2, but in first leg he only score penalty, Ronald score more than 30 before he won his first ballon. Then also won Champion league. I love hazard as chelsea player but i don’t like him to criticise Jose mourinho and chelsea team. I love chelsea more than my friends
I think he should leave if he wants to…no player is bigger than #Chelsea. secondly José has always said this season was a transitional season Hazard was wrong to make those comments, that said? The press should buzz off #Chelsea. We’ll be better next season with José (with or without Hazard)
