Benching Hazard
With many expecting Hazard to be rested this week, would it be wise to bench him, in case he comes on for the last few minutes of the game?
Be interesting to see what people think.

Re: Benching Hazard
Personally I wouldn't bench him. Either keep and start, or sell and look to get back next week.Carlos Kickaball wrote:With many expecting Hazard to be rested this week, would it be wise to bench him, in case he comes on for the last few minutes of the game?

Still a chance of him doing something in a cameo, and if he doesn't play at all auto-subs can cover. My gut feeling though is that he either starts or doesn't play at all.

Re: Benching Hazard
The thing that makes it more difficult, and I think others may be in the same situation, is that all my attacking players will be good options this week as I am replacing Cambiasso with a Sunderland midfielder. I'd certainly rather have Sigurðsson (MAN) over a Hazard cameo away at West Brom. I'd also like to keep Hazard as I think he'll play last game of the season and will be a good option even if it doesn't turn in to a party game.
I started this topic, as I think it can't just be me who faces a similar dicision, as I've seen a few people brining in Gómez and Larsson recently, and also many will have a reasonable prospect on their bench anyway.

Re: Benching Hazard
If he is going to be rested, I don't see why we'll bother bringing him on later in the game. I think he's more likely to start than be rested, but it will either be one or the other I feel. Personally I see him starting the remaining games, his fitness has not been a problem all season.

Re: Benching Hazard
Gooberman, what do you think?
I'm actually thinking of selling him. There is a decent chance he doesn't play against WBA, and even if he does that is not the easiest fixture. Selling him would free up some money, which would be useful for me.
But if I do sell him I must hide behind the sofa in GW38

Disastrous news. Need Sanchez and thought I was gonna be safe selling Hazard for him.

Even though I own him it's bad news for me. I'm 0.1 short of fabregas to Silva

Re: Benching Hazard
Great news. Removes any potential headaches and could almost make him a bit of an inconceivable differential with so many high ranking players jumping ship early.

Re: Benching Hazard
I think Mourinho will be playing those that want to keep that every minute record, even though Hazard looked a bit tired recently

Yes I've gone for Larsson (as was always my plan), and will be playing Hazard too.

Well I've played him, and my rival's sold him for Cazorla.

Re: Benching Hazard
I've kept him (but almost transferred him for Ramsey -but didn't have the courage)
