Sarri Non-Committal On Whether Hazard Will Start On Sunday Against Newcastle

|

So far, this season, our jewel-in-the-crown, Eden Hazard, has yet to start a match.

Hazard, courtesy of his prolonged participation in the 2018 World Cup with Belgian, returned to training later than his team-mates.

In our two previous games, Hazard has come off the bench to great effect, showing the skills that have seen him coveted by Real Madrid.

But, will Hazard start against Newcastle United on Sunday?

At his pre-match press conference, ahead of the game, Maurizio Sarri was giving very little away.

When pushed, the Italian merely replied that the Belgian was ready for 50 or 60 minutes of action but suggested he was unsure whether he can manage ninety minutes yet.

Which to us would indicate that Sarri might be prepared to finally start with Hazard and see how long he lasts.

But, what is your view on the subject matter?

Can you see Hazard starting this Sunday or is he set to be on the bench?
