The tie (1-1) of the Real Madrid in front of the Osasuna in Santiago Bernabéu is a sample that Eden Hazard does not go in more in the plans of Carlo Ancelotti. The technician, in front of the need to look for a result that kept them in the tip of the championship, decided to opt by Mariano Díaz like forward before that use to the Belgian, what shows the little confidence that exists in his capacities.

Once finalised the commitment, the trainer appeared in front of the media to justify his decision. "It was a party that needed a leading strong centre to go of head like Mariano, that had the opportunity to mark. It was not a party for the quality of Hazard", ensured, what opens once again the debate on if the '7' has what needs to dress the elastic merengue.

It seemed that the injury of Karim Benzema was the perfect opportunity so that the forward recovered his game, since 'Carletto' bet by him and had designated him like direct relief of the French when it could not play. However, everything little by little has gone disappearing in spite of the high expectations, to the point to accumulate only 158' minutes of game in what it goes of season.

In fact, everything indicates that the only that trusts fully in his quality is Roberto Martínez in the selection of Belgium. The míster has planted him in his alignments constantly, although the criticisms have not done expect by the low performance that has showed in his performances. Now, it seems that the World-wide of Catar will be the only window that will have Hazard to show that still there are traces of that footballer that captivated to the world with Chelsea.

Promise broken

Like this the things, seems that that promise of Hazard in Cibeles where affirmed that this would be his season will remain for the forget. Seen the seen, there will be few parties for him in Madrid in his penultimate year of agreement, more still if Benzema keeps healthy and if Rodrygo Goes continues taking advantage of the occasions that offers him the trainer. The option to go out in summer is opened, although it will have to reduce considerably his emolumentos if it wants to go back to be leading.
