Another great reason why he would be a good apointment. I think some are not giving Pep's intelligence any credit. Surely he knows we can't play 'exactly' like Barcelona do. In fact, just about no-one can. I don't think he will try stuff like turning Mikel into a CB or playing only 3 defenders. He will adapt his game to the EPL and have us playing good attacking sexy football without compromising our defense (surely he also saw AVB fail). I would love him here and that no pressure for 2 years might be exactly what Pep needs to build a dynasty.
It's obviously us, why would he turn around and say "Oh Sorry, I meant the Champions League winners of 2008". He is ours, we should be happy, this won't be a Robinho scenario, trust me.
-----------------------Torres/Sturridge---------------- --Hazard/Marin----Mata/KDB---Hulk/Ramires-- ------------Mikel/Romeu-------Lampard/Ramires-- -Cole/Bert----JT----Cahill/Luiz--- Ivanovic/Rami ----------------------------Cech--------------------------- Ramires is versatile meaning he could play in all thirds of the park. Such a great asset to the team. I also remember rumours that we may deploy Hulk on the LEFT side because we want him to stick to the flanks, not cut in and use his left foot for Crosses and provide real quality service for Torres. The same would apply for Hazard on the right but he would obviously rotate with Mata.
I think he could be a great RB, it's worth a shot. Good thing about Ramires is that he is versatile so I expect him to be in the starting 11 in one way or another.
I want to get the England- Belgium game out of the way so we can announce it and do the interview etc Just out of Curiosity, if we get Hulk as well, who would you get on the back of your shirt from those 2 players? Hazard is better but 'Incredible Hulk' would be great to have on your jersey
You honestly think we will buy a CM after buying Hazard and Hulk? We need a RB as well unless we use Hutch as a backup, which I hope we do. Don't get me wrong a CM would be great but don't see it happening.
We don't need one. We have Mata, Hazard and probably Hulk as the creative sparks in the team. Lampard and Mikel will be the DM's and Lampard is more than Capable of laying off some great passes.
It doesn't matter if Dortmund didn't miss him as much as Lille would miss Hazard. It just means that Dortmund are a better team than Lille. Gotze was Injured alot so his season was hampered and ruined somewhat. Make no mistake, Gotze is the better talent and has more Potential.
Hazard is a fantastic Penalty taker. If you watch the Penalties he has taken, you'll see that he is so composed and skillfull when scores his Penalty. It'll be a touch choice to decide who takes our Penalties now, Frank or Eden...? Disagree, Gotze is the greatest Talent followed closely by Neymar and Hazard.
