Has Eden Hazard’s let the cat out the bag about his real feelings towards Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso?

Chelsea fans on Twitter have a theory about Hazard’s actions over the past week, and it could suggest that he’s unhappy with the support he’s provided with down the left-hand-side of the Blues’ attack.

Alonso has his fair share of critics within the Chelsea community. As effective as he can be in front of goal, his crossing is pretty poor and his defending is suspect.

We’ve taken notice of that over the past couple of years, and it’s hard to imagine that it has been missed by Hazard, who has been out on the left with him the whole time.

Have a look at the two pictures in the below tweet. Hazard looked incredibly happy while celebrating with Emerson Palmieri, as well as acknowledging the good performance of Leicester City’s Ben Chilwell.

Is this the most subtle of hints that he is hoping Chelsea invest in a new left-back, or give Emerson a chance? Let us know your thoughts in the comments and on Twitter @TalkChelsea.
