Thought Hazard got smothered whenever he was on the ball. Doubled up on him, closed him aggressively and kept him away from the box. And the others looked like they were just hoping he would manage to do something.

Yeah exactly. The last half hour was literally just pass it to Hazard asap.

So until Chelsea sign Crouch their plan B is pass to Hazard whenever possible. All teams have to do to counter that is what you lot did last night, smother him.

Chelsea look void of any fresh idea's and Conte obviously wants out.

Chelsea have had a £44m bid, plus add-ons, accepted by Roma for their Bosnia striker Edin Dzeko, 31, and 23-year-old Brazilian full-back Emerson Palmieri.
 
He's a better option than Crouch or Carroll

At least he will give them a different kind of striker. A bit like Giroud is for Arsenal. Only Giroud is better.
 
Hardly building for the future though is it?

Him and Crouchy combined are nearly 70

So he'll be 32 next season, potentially useless within 6 months of being bought. If he's any sense he'll stay where he is so that he plays every game and enjoys his footy but money will make him move.
