Hazard as well to be honest, thought he was brilliant he did 'I am joining the European champions', got 3x MOTM awards in his first 3 games and since then he's lost the European Super cup final, the charity shield, the club world cup final and been knocked out of the champions League already. Great run...

Nothing to do with Hazard mate, hes been top notch, although he has gone missing in some big games.

^ I wouldn't call Hazard neither "brilliant" nor "top notch" so far. He has the ability but at the moment, he is not showing it consistently throughout a match, let alone a string of matches. He has been OK for 40 million euros at best, in fact, he has been a bit meh for that price.

Marin, Moses, Roswell, Sinclair.

Moses and Hazard are nowhere near.

Excluding people who've been out injured, maybe Adam Johnson, although he looks to have picked up a bit the last month... Which is maybe why this is a thread for may and not december.

You do know the year didn't start in August right?

Hazard was great for Lille at the star of the year so can't really class him as a flop along with Moses and Sinclair for their respective old clubs aswell.

Biggest flop for me would be probably Downong. 1 goal and 1 assist in the premier league says it all.

Moses has looked pretty good, starting to get more playing time too.

It has to be Javi Garcia but many have mentioned about him. Another one is Pazzini. Milan swapped Cassano plus €7 Million for Pazzini.

How we would all love a striker with 7 goals and 6 assists warming the bench!

Hazard has been fantastic, no way is he a flop. Yes he often goes missing in the big games but overall he has had a great impact.


Jack Rodwell has been underwhelming whenever he's had a chance to play.
