I think Hazard will become a much better player than Mata. Without Hazard in the team we really do struggle. If I had to choose to keep one out of Mata and Hazard for the next 10 seasons it would be Hazard. He just seems to have everything Mata has footballing wise, but in a more powerful and faster body.
I also think Oscar has the potential to become better than Mata. If he can bring his Brazilian form into Chelsea, then he would be better than Mata.
Mata is not bad by the way, it just shows how good those 3 are.

Agreed.
Also Lucas Moura went for around £40mil. I think Oscar is at the very least as valuable as Moura so I think those who valued him at £40mil were correct in doing so.
Back in Brazil, after Neymar they rate Oscar as the next best thing. If Moura went to PSG for £40mill then Oscar was a bloomin bargain for £20mill. Excellent bit of business.
Mata, imo, is currently much more important to our team then Hazard. He isn't a flashy, doesn't have a great turn off pace and can't really beat a man; he is a lot more subtle then that. Mata runs the show at Chelsea, links the play up much better than Hazard, has a better delivery and reads the game better than Hazard currently does.
Hazard goes missing too often as well, and I actually think Mata is a better finisher than Hazard.
However, I think playing with Mata will help him no end, and will ultimately become a better player than Mata, but I cannot see that happening in the next couple of years.
We should just be thankful that we have them both.
