Just what you don't need. Oh well, he'll get a rest now but it will be at least mid September before he's match fit. Makes Willians' position more secure and shows why we need all 3 (including Pedro) for the campaign next season. Don't know what we'd do if it was Luiz, there's no replacement for him in the ranks.
 
very sad indeed. atleast one good thing, it was post season.
He's younger so can bounce back faster I suppose.

Pedro & Willian will have too much of a load.

May be Moses might be pushed up, with Dave playing Wingback?
We have few options. But not direct one to one replacement.
Atsu could.... oh well.

Wilf Zaha anyone?

I believe zaha just signed a 5 year contract with Palace.

I think Mahrez may be worth a punt myself.
 
What is done is done. All the best to Hazard. Great opportunity for Willian and whatever young reserve that'll get a place on the bench. You can't replace Hazard with a short contract buy. Best use the cover within.
