Eden Hazard does not know how to cope with Chelsea

Ahead of Euro 2016, the out-of-sorts playmaker has come under scrutiny for his club this season, just months after starring forChelseain theirPremier Leaguetitle-winning campaign.Chelsea travel toParis Saint-Germainin theChampions Leagueon Tuesday evening in the first legof the last 16 and the Parc des Princes could become a regular stomping ground for Hazard.The 25-year-old recently said in an interview that it was‘difficult to say no to PSG’after falling out of favour at Stamford Bridge.He has scored four goals for Belgium in 2015/16 and just one for the Blues in theFA Cup againstMK Dons.But Terreur says Hazard’s poor form can be justified as it is his ‘first [ever] dip in performances’.He toldHawksbee and Jacobs: “He was doing alright in the Belgium national team because hesuddenly started scoring which hewasn’t doing before, so we were quite happy.“I think last year he played every single game almost [and has done] for ten years in a row. So I think it’s the first dip in his performances ever.“Last week he said in an interview that he didn’t know how to cope with it mentally.“He had a short pre-season in which he suffered physically so it’s a combination of things altogether – you have the problems at Chelsea, it’s everything together. Even he is surprised.“It seems like he wants to move, he is up for a new challenge. But I think he is keeping his options open because if no one comes in with the money, the only teams that can pay him off is PSG andReal Madrid, so if not he will have to stay at Chelsea.”
