When, last summer, the young Belgian forward Michy Batshuayi became the latest expensive addition to the club, it was thought that, considering the price Chelsea paid for him, he`d feature regularly in the starting eleven.
However, that hasn`t been the case and Batshuayi has hardly featured when it comes to playing in the Premier League. Even when Diego Costa has been unavailable either through injury or suspension, Batshuayi has been over-looked with Conte favouring an attacking trio of Pedro, Hazard and Willian.
At 23-years-of-age, Batshuayi needs to be playing regular football if he is to make a name for himself in the game. According to the media vehicle the Metro, it is being implied that a Chelsea team-mate has advised Batshuayi to move on if his time at Chelsea is going to continue to be as frustrating as it has been.
The player in question is Eden Hazard who in an interview with the Belgian news vehicle DH, is quoted as having remarked,
“The advice I give to any player who lacks playing time is you have to play.
“He must try to play more at Chelsea. Or he finds another club to bounce back.
“It is not easy, he had a good season in Marseille, a season with being able to play and score.”
Is Hazard right?
Would it suit both parties if Batshuayi was to move on?
Your thoughts on the above subject would be most welcome.
