Those who said Hazard is an overrated player :howler:

Ace move by Chelsea, one of the best signings this season, the kid is really talented, and now he's showing it on a higher level.

I agree.

And he's going to get better as well, this is early days.
True that :tup:

Oh and typical Wigan, they always start the season off horribly, and you look at them and say, theres no way this team will stay up, then in the latter end of the season they start beating the big teams and pulling off miraculous results and they stay up. :D

Mata is better on the center than in the wing imo so no issues there.

We're missing Ramires and Marin so we had to play Mata in the right wing, hazard behind the striker and Bertrand in the left wing.

I think there'll be a lot of rotation between Mata and Hazard.

I think you're wrong, i think he's equally as good playing behind the striker, he moves a lot and has good enough close ball control to take advantage of the pockets of space in that hole, he likes having a free role too, at Lille he had the freedom to roam, and he loved it. Tying him down to one flank and having him track back takes away a bit of his inventiveness.

Agree with the defensive part, but i don't think he's as much as scoring threat playing behind the stiker as playing on the flank, also he'll have much harder time playing with his back to the goal in the so often crowded MF, rather him catching it on the wing and taking one to two defenders which he can easily beat. I think his best position is similar to Ronaldo in Madrid.
