and because Fergie says so it's true ? I don't know for certain but to me it seems like an easy excuse that he uses to avoid losing face. Don't you think it's a bit coincidental that the last three players Fergie wanted and didn't get al had "ridiculous agent fee demands" ? Like i said before it doesn't make sense to me if your already willing to invest that much money why argue over a couple of millions ?

Heard this a lot of times but it doesn't make sense to me. Why would Man u be willing to shell out the 40 million for Hazard but not pay a couple extra millions in agent fees ? Also his player wages aren't questionable. Multiple (reliable !) French and Belgian media outlets reported his wages to be £110 k .

This! Also why does he have to be a strong character ? It's not like we have difficult characters in our team and most of the old guard will be gone.

Think Hazard's words are being misinterpreted by some. His words don't really mean being scared or frightend but more along the lines of showing to much respect.

He's not really a playmaker. He can pass the ball well, loads of stamina, good in tight spaces, he can play his way out of difficult situations, very technical, good positional awareness and he's strong on the ball but he doesn't have the long range passing required of a DLP. He's kind of a mixture between a DM and a DLP. I'd put him next to a DLP and play him as the more defensive player. This campagne he's played on the 6 for Belgium next to Dembele and he's been really great. A Gundogan-Witsel midfield would be faptacular.

Why compare Mata and Hazard to dlp's ? They aren't dlp, but AM. Same with why they don't cross much. They aren't out and out wingers. They're AM's that operate centrally and thrive on quick 1-2's. 1 thing i've wondered about our tactics is why we're crossing the ball into the box. I mean really who do we expect to head it in ? Hazard ? Mata ? Oscar ? We should just try to emulate a small part of Barcelona's tactic. Using our fullbacks for width and trying to stretch the defense so some space opens up centrally for Mata, Hazard and Oscar to exploit. We should instruct our fullbacks to only cross that ball in when they see someone open and preferably do it over the ground. Else just pass it back and keep possession.

Fully agree with you. Imo the lack of a DLP has been our biggest weakness this season.

Although i'm a fan of playing Ocar in centre midfield i don't think that was why we looked better. We have a crappy midfield. We got dominated in midfield and couldn't reach our attackers because of that. Our answer to this was hoofing the ball and bypassing our midfield completely but with only 1 striker it wasn't working. With Torres and Ba up front we were causing the central defenders problems this made Mancini use a more defensive tactic and have his team sit deeper which allowed our midfield to finally get on the ball without getting pressed like crazy.

MARCA DOES NOT LIE !!!!

Maybe he did something like this

That's how he draws you in...

No offense but do people ever stop to think that the reason he's "hardly playing" is because he simply isn't good enough ? Also if he needs to play regularly to perform well then we might aswell sell him cause he isn't going to.

Bravo rafa... BRA-FUCKING-VO !

Our national team is also playing a friendly against the US on the 29th of may in Cleveland. Long vacation in the US for Hazard.

Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD Euhm... is that what i think it is ?

If Torres was playing he would have probably blocked the shot himself.

Saw this interview/documentary of CNN with jose Mourinho. It was made in October 2012. Interesting moment ( @ 20m 58 sec) : Interviewer : Would you work with him (Roman Abramovich) again ? Mourinho : Ofcourse. Interviewer: You would ? Mourinho: ofcourse. Interviewer: No hard feelings ? Mourinho : no no. I think it was perfect example of a fantastic divorce. I know that it was already common knowledge that Mourinho and Abramovich were getting along again but there's a big difference between getting along and wanting to work together again. So i'm quite happy with this. Also when asked who he would pick out of the Real Madrid squad to take care of his children for a day. He picked Essien.

People have a right to vote for who ever the hell they want.

What does that have to do with comparing Kagawa to Hazard ?

Lol Hazard is not on £185k. French and Belgian media reported he makes £110k.

nope i just think think your a wanker. That's why i posted I think you're acting more like a 12 y old. Throwing a fit when people disagree with you. Take your own advice : move on.
