Just stop comparing .....ffs. First Hazard compared with Oscar and now KDB? There are simply too my differences: style, attributes, context, team, league, ..... The thread is getting a bit ridiculous imo.
I trust that is a retorical 'why'? You answered it perfectly yourself After season and pre-season we play the money making, marketing and branding game :-)
Legitimate yes, but i find it short term thinking tbh. I think a players that gets the chance or another year to compete at the highest stage because he was part of the making of that succes will eventually be more gratefull to his motherclub than when you move him strategically like pawn. If you do that, he will look at Chelsea and treat the club like they do him: either respectfull or self interest oriented and strategic. I'd rather have a club that has the moral highground on young players and their chances/development. We lack that now to be frank.
I think i would like you in my team. I was always the very hard one in defense doing it for the others. Captain as well. Brains, speed and power .....i was no Hazard. Stil, played 4th national league here. I think you rock!
I just asked to make a proper argumentation. Not derail. Also ...l this thread is about more @bir_cfc than just what you say. Its a debate about a player. Whining is what the Torres and even Mikel thing is about.
