EDEN HAZARD QUESTIONED MOURINHO TACTICS AGAINST ATLETICO MADRID

Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard appears to have questioned tactics used by manager Jose Mourinho following his team's defeat to Atletico Madrid in the Champions League semi-final

Eden Hazard appeared to question Jose Mourinho’s strategy after Wednesday night’s Champions League semi-final exit when he was quoted on French television as saying that Chelsea were “not made to play football”.

Mourinho was adamant after the 3-1 defeat that Chelsea have had a successful season but his comments became partially overshadowed by Hazard’s interview with beIN SPORTS, a television station that, like Paris St-German, is Qatari-owned. 

“Chelsea are not made to play football, we are good on the counter-attack, a bit like Real against Bayern Munich,” Hazard said. "Often, I'm asked to do it all by myself and it's not easy."

The full context of Hazard’s remarks was unclear but they are clearly open to interpretation, with sections of the French media taking it as a sign that he could be interested in a move to PSG.

Mourinho and Chelsea are expected to seek clarification from Hazard, although the club has repeatedly made it clear that they would not consider seeling their star playmaker.
