I get what your saying but when the manager denies everything (as Martinez did), its hard for a player to then come out and undermine him by saying the opposite.
I thought that Eto'o scored Hazard's first goal yesterday, even though he was prone and offside at the time (ignoring the foul on the keeper). I loved the MotD comments on Barry: [paraphrase] That should have been a yellow, that could have been a straight red, he was offside when the ball hit him for the first goal... anyway, we move on now...
