Eden Hazard: Chelsea star sent Jose Mourinho a text message after sacking… here’s what he told Manchester United boss
Special One now at Manchester United but he had full support of Hazard during terrible run towards end of Blues reign
EDEN HAZARD has revealed he sent a text to Jose Mourinho after the Portuguese was sacked by Chelsea.
Mourinho was shown the door by Chelsea for a second time last December following the club’s dismal defence of their title.
The likes of Hazard were singled out as alleged troublemakers by disgruntled fans, with the Belgian playing way below the level which won him Player of the Year the season before.

Teammate Thibaut Courtois has already revealed he believes the players were as much to blame for Mourinho’s exit as the man himself.
And Hazard has now admitted he wished the Special One ‘good luck’ as Guus Hiddink charge temporarily.
Mourinho is now at Manchester United and Hazard adds he hopes his former boss enjoys success at Old Trafford.
He said: “The relationship was always the same. For him it was difficult to lose a game because it’s in his character to win all the time.
“But we were together. We were together at the top, and in the bad moments – we suffered together.
“I sent him a message just to say ‘good luck’ and I hope he can win some games.
“Not too much because we want Chelsea to become champions – but I want him to be at the top again.”
