Plenty to Ponder: Eden Hazard limps off the Hampden Park pitchEden Hazard has given Chelsea a major injury scare after hobbling out of Belgium's final training session before Friday night's World Cup qualifier against Scotland.
Belgium's Chelsea midfielder played down fears over a nagging achilles problem, claiming it was not an old injury that kept recurring and insisting he would be fit for the Hampden Park tie.
But he now looks like missing the game after wincing in discomfort, barely 20 minutes into the session, and leaving the Hampden pitch.

The worry for Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho is that Hazard has been unable to shake off the injury and has been troubled by it throughout Belgium's week-long preparations.
If the attacking midfielder has aggravated it, in his efforts to prove his fitness to national coach Marc Wilmots, he may be in danger of having to sit out the resumption of Chelsea's Barclays Premier League programme.
