I was in such a good mood until Hazard confirms our worst fear, anybody wants to leave for Madrid I understand. and Barca. Biggest in the world. But who do we replace him with, mahrez should of been ours, that's the concern. £150m + but who is there to get.

Spot on Matt. Only one player better in the World Cup for me and he would never join us.
I want the player at the club not the money but if he goes I would think £200mil minimum.

If Hazard and Willian go what are the options? Malcom, Bailey, Brandt and Zaha all would be decent options for me. None are Eden Hazard though.

I love him but if he goes he goes nothing we will be able to do.

Him going isn’t the problem it’s replaceing him. Zaha hasn’t the consistency or end product, Malcom is unproven, Bailey the same, some these people not ready to start at a big club let alone fill hazards boots, asesnsio / bale, Dybala? Need a to be big name otherwise we are on the decline, Ed’s can I ask you who would be good replacement, not who were linked to but in an ideal world,

{Ed001's Note - Bailey would be excellent, I like Malcom as well. Asensio is probably the ideal though.}

People may not agree but I think we need to get back to basics and maybe not a player with the flair of hazard but heung min son, already proven in prem and gets a decent amount of goals.
Having said this I wouldn’t complain if Isco was part of a deal but I really hope hazard stays but we cannot have the same situation at the end of every season. This is where the club needs to come back in and either spend big on quality players to keep him or sell him now for a kings ransom.

Lets be honest, it doesn't matter how much We recieve if Hazard should be sold We will not be able to replace Him directly.

Football is about opinions ofcourse but I believe there are only a small handful of players as good as or better than Hazard. I would say Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar and Bale.

Of those Ronaldo has just moved to Juve and is more of a Striker these days, Messi will be impossible to pry away from Barca, Neymar would cost the GDP of a medium sized country and wouldn't entertain the Prem and Bale I couldn't see coming to Chelsea if He did return to England plus His injury record is a major concern.

Beyond these Guys, everyone else are inferior to Hazard imo.

Still no use crying over spilt milk and if He does go We'll just have to get on with it.

KTBFFH!

I agree with Ed001, Asensio would be ideal. If you think about it, signing Asensio at 22 would be the same as signing Eden at 21. Boatloads of talent, very young and ready to prove their talent. It won’t happen, but I’d love it!
