Was Hazard going for the ball or the ball-boy Wirey?

The ball. Shame he missed it and got the ball boy though.

If you don't want to be sent of for kicking a ball boy, here is a tip. Don't kick out towards a ball boy. Bad things may happen.


Is going for the ball now a defence?
If a Chelsea player gets taken out this weekend will be alright if the player was going for the ball?

The ball.

Thankyou

And well done on your above average interpretation of Hazard's intent

Shame he missed it and got the ball boy though.

Of course

If only the ball boy had just tossed him the ball like he was supposed to, we could all be congratulating the achievement of his Dad's club instead

Hazard was 100% in the right. It's times like this where I feel sick at what football has become, where even ballboys are trying to get in on the time-wasting and diving act...

A massive thumbs down to the chelsea fans too, who were just metres away and did nothing.... That kid should have left the field wearing a few hamburgers and drenched in beer....

It was a shit decision from the start, Jose better f**king come.

Yep, a seriously bad knee jerk reaction.. Most fans must be wondering what the f**k was he thinking to have sacked him and replaced him with rafa..

Agreed.. And it would only be a short term appointment as we all know..

It would be a silly move.

He's been around a while, you'd think he already has a few $$ and other issues, as already discussed, would be more of a consideration.

He has a good job where he is, has been there a while and is building the club nicely on a limited budget.

If it only took cash to make him leave, it would say a lot about his character. He doesn't come across in such a way though but as usual when it comes to money, it makes people do some odd things at times.

This has been mentioned by a few news outlets, hopefully it's on the mark

Chelsea begin negotiations to bring back former manager Jose Mourinho to Stamford Bridge


Rafael Benitez may have dropped hints he wants to extend his tenure as Chelsea boss beyond this season but it seems the struggling Blues have already set their sights on his replacement.


England’s Daily Mail is reporting the club have contacted former manager Jose Mourinho, with a view to bringing him back to Stamford Bridge in the English off-season.

The newspaper says that talks have only just begun, but billionaire Russian owner Roman Abramovich would back a swoop for the self-appointed 'Special One'.

Mourinho has endured a testing season at the helm of Real Madrid, whose shock loss to Granada on the weekend saw them fall 15 points behind great rivals Barcelona in La Liga.

Things aren’t much better for European champions Chelsea and interim boss Benitez.

A 3-2 loss to Newcastle United on the weekend saw them fall 16 points behind Barclays Premier League leaders Manchester United.

Already bundled out of the Champions League, the Blues were last month sent packing from the Capital One Cup by Swansea, and only a late Fernando Torres leveller against Brentford in the FA Cup spared Benitez’s side further embarrassment.

Now it appears Abramovich is ready to entice Mourinho - the man he sacked in 2007 - back in a bid to get the most out of his star-studded squad.

Mourinho enjoyed tremendous success in his three years at Chelsea, delivering two Premier League titles, an FA Cup and two League Cups to Blues fans.

Chelsea’s defence – a major weakness this campaign- was rock-solid during his reign and conceded a stingy 15 goals in the 2004-2005 season while they never lost an EPL home match with the Portuguese boss in charge.

If the two-time Champions League winner leaves the Bernabau, Chelsea won’t be the only club vying for his highly-prized signature.

Mourinho is reportedly interested in the project at Qatari-backed Paris-Saint Germain while the Portuguese manager has never hid his desire to replace Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United.
