Real Madrid fans are now starting to question whether they should have bought Eden Hazard from Chelsea in the summer.

Chelsea made the difficult decision to part company with Hazard in the previous transfer window, but things have not gone to plan for the Belgian winger.

Hazard has only scored one goal since leaving Stamford Bridge, and his performance was last night was alarmingly poor.

The 28-year-old started for Madrid as they won 1-0 against Galatasaray, but he missed an absolute sitter during the contest.

Hazard went round the Gala goalkeeper, but somehow hit the crossbar from close range.

And some Madrid fans have even suggested that they wouldn’t mind seeing Hazard return to Chelsea, as he has started so poorly.

Madrid fans can be ruthless, so Hazard is under pressure to pick up his performance levels quickly.

Hazard’s departure at Chelsea has given the club’s youngsters a chance to step up, and so far Frank Lampard’s side have coped credibly without their talisman for so many years.

Chelsea have continued to be a threatening attacking force, with the likes of Callum Hudson-Odoi, Mason Mount and Tammy Abraham all impressing in Hazard’s absence.
