His free kicks aren't too shabby either.

Am I the only one who's a bit surprised Hazard has been hailed as a no brainer for Player of the season. I expected Alexis to feature in peoples thoughts a little more. Even when he hasn't played well he's often had an influence.
More than happy with Ozil right now. It will be interesting to see who we sign in the summer. The squad can obviously be improved but it is arguably complete.
He's probably been perceived as better because Chelsea are going to win the league. Great player but I don't think Alexis has been any less special, in fact you could argue Alexis is more deserving because he still shone when the team was struggling for form.
Plus, Alexis isn't a diving little shitbag scrote.
That's what's gone against him. Diving at critical moments and changing a game is a speciality of Hazard. Alexis stays on his feet. Net result, Hazard gets the penalty, Alexis loses the ball. Provided the pundits and the media overlook the cheating (which they are excellent at doing) this makes Hazard the more influential player. It will probably be a moment of diving inspiration that separates the teams today. Then we can have the big write ups, Hazard guns down Wenger's boys... Jamie Redknapp can do an analysis of how Hazard is better than Messi.
No, I'm not in the least surprised Hazard has been ushered in as the player of the season. It gives a useful gloss to what will be an otherwise dreadful team of anti-footballing robots winning tBLitWtbf. Can't have a glorified Stoke winning it, can we?
Can anyone name a good striker that's available? Not sure I can.
It ain't easy, that's fore sure. Wouldn't turn my nose up at Reus.
