Jose Mourinho’s criticism of Eden Hazard has been compared by many Manchester United fans on Twitter to his treatment of Juan Mata.
Hazard was left out of Chelsea’s starting line-up for the 2-0 win over Aston Villa, and boss Mourinho afterwards said the Belgian needed to up his work-rate to regain his place.
Mourinho allowed Mata to move to Old Trafford in January 2014 after similar warnings – and some United supporters seem hopeful history might repeat itself.
The decision to bench Hazard against Villa was largely backed by Chelsea fans – though some are worried it could unsettle the player.

I'm Manchester United fans but be honest jose so stupid because they left hazard out I'm sure 100 pecsnt bewtten Jose and hazard is not going be okay like before so we ready for him wolcome to Manchester United
I think Mourinho is a critic,cuz he normally find an excuses whenever he failed and have no excuse to defend himself,perhaps last season he does not says Hazard doesn't know how to defend
eee,guyz of man u,just b cool,expect morihnos left over 2 b our gud lunch just az he dd wt the star mata. hazard u r welcome @ man utd.
I.am a man utd fan. but sup what morinho do sothat hazad must improv. If that ll be the ceas he shul joine us at utd.
Please let's not live in the past,last season is gone..
Hazard is a player I respect so much but sometimes we need to be candid.. He hasn't done much for the team this season,I don't see that football and winning spirit in him.. Diego Costa might lack self-control on the pitch but I admire his spirit and love for the team...
Eden sometimes even as if nothing is stake, like he isn't concerned whether the team wins or loses,he's too relaxed...
Hence,I don't blame Mourinho for deciding to bench him on Saturday, there should be discipline and passion to win for the club..
Athletico Madrid doesn't have superstars like Mancity and Real Madrid, but they have players who are committed to the team, ready to fight for the team...
I believe Hazard is still a great player who will take the team to greater heights but he needs to work harder...
Eden H10 is still our respected player regardless....
Just bench him more.so he can join man united.#bench hazard
KEEPING HAZARD ON BENCH WON'T REVIVE HIS FORM. HE'S GONNA BE BETTER SOONER RATHER THAN LETTER, HE {JOSÈ} SHOULD ALWAYS KEEP QUIET ON ACTIONS AND STOP ERRING PEOPLE WITH STATEMENT.
HE SOLD MATA WHICH I HAVE N0T FORGIVEN HIM, HE SOLD KELVIN, HE SOLD SCHURRLE, NOW HE WILL SELL HAZARD FOLLOWS WILLIAN. JOSÈ SHOULD USE HIS INITIATIVE IN FOOTBALL AND STOP BEING PROBLEMATIC, HE MADE EVA CANNEIRO LEFT.
FRUSTRATION SHOULD PART FROM HIS BRAIN. WELL, WE LOVE THEM ALL AS OUR PLAYERS AND COACH.
am not surprise if Eden hazard leave chelsea with this hush treatment of jose mourinho benching hazard will never revive his slow starts or his form right now there are always some others ways on how to improve someone not by benching for crying not loud hazard is great player compared to ronaldo, neymar, bale he doesn't deserve this shit...
my people let us analyse well hazard is one player I like and respect, last season he was marvelous but this time he seems not ready to play yet, so do u want mourihno to keep on playing him all the time and keep on loosing. mourihno has used that to let him and the players know that no body is too superior and that they need to wake up. watch Diego Costa he played on Saturday like he want to win and he did that is the spirit. so hazard need to wake up.
we need Hazard,José and all first team players. the season will change one day.
