Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho on brink of sack as Twitter mocks Hazard after penalty miss
EDEN HAZARD was mercilessly mocked after his penalty was saved by Stoke City's Jack Butland.
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho speaks with Eden Hazard
The Capital One Cup defending champions were knocked out of the competition on penalties after they failed to score in extra time against the 10 man Potters.
Hazard's decisive penalty was superbly tipped over the bar by Butland putting Mourinho ever closer to the exit.
And unsurprisingly Twitter wasted in no time in mocking the Belgian and his beleaguered boss.
