Well, I agree he misses once in a while :-) Who doesn't. But still I think it is a bias to say or believe he is bad at finishing. Last season he scored 20 goals in 38 games. That is pretty good finishing for a 20 year old attacking midfielder in my book - not average. I think it IS a bias claiming such things in ones first year EPL. You can attribute some of the poor finishes on this fact and on the fact he still had to adapt - attributing it to his lack of finishing is being short-sighted. Lets compare to a slightly younger Falcao 2006-07 CA River Plate Primera A 25 7 2007-08 CA River Plate Primera A 39 19 2008-09 CA River Plate Primera A 35 16 He actually did worse than Hazard three seasons in a row but we endow him on this forum with god like finishing. So, your argument fails I fear. To take it further check cavani, another God of finishing: 2007-2008: 33 - 5 2008-2009: 35 - 14 2009-2010: 34 - 13 So also here - Hazard is better, even as a AM. The problem is you are comparing strikers ( or a 9) in their prime with someone that is just starting .... there is no excuse for that in science, there shouldn't be here. Plus, add the assists and you have one pretty awesome player that is not Messi, Ronaldo or any other. He really is just Hazard - with his own very individual skill set. Fuck sake. Be happy we have him, appreciate it instead of debating how many angels fit on on the tip of a needle.

I am there for you, mate!

I think the observation he is average at finishing is just groupthink from this forum. How many goals did he score in his first season again? And how many did CR7 and Messi score in their first season/at that age? We really are so fast to judge. And I said that even in July.

You are so Vanilla

All because of Spike - Aussie MILF hunter with a pinch of BDSM

I will NEVER be able to look at you in the same fashion ever again, mate .......

Ah you pussy

And ... Did you bang that older lady after all?

Zolayes was in the library? Omg.

Ok Nostradamus. Let's talk in a few years time :-)

Well. Ive seen Fellaini play countless times. This way, way, way too harsh. He may or may not fit into our system (we are biased about his passing because of his big body - and hair) but he is much more than what you make him out to be tbh. Id take him over Ramires even - whos technical abilities and passing aren't that super duper awesome to say the least. The thing that all belgians fear in him is instead his lack of tracking sometimes and his nonchalance..... If we want an absolute beast and a running metronome marathon man WITH the passing abilit that always deliversy, it is Witsel plain and simple. He is the missing piece in our puzzle and I believe Mourinho knows it as well. Get him in plzzzzzzzzzzzz Roman!

Ladies and gentlemen, Turn on, tune in, drop out Because the revolution will not be televised !

As I said in another thread: there are a LOT of resemblances between Kompany and Luiz. We ar blessed to gave a CB with his technical capabilities and physical attributes. The sceptics will review their opinion in time. He is a world beater CB in my book.

For this one we need to come out in good form. Hazard and Mata will have to really perform with Ba as a central point, a pivot that is disciplined enough and Luiz that is magic once more. If we have that ... 1-3 for the blues. If we fail to show up .... 3-1 I fear. Bets are up!

Without any doubt ..... Hazard. What he brings is incredible at such a tender age. This guy WILL be our Ronaldo or Messi. Pace, intellect, teamethic, creativity, skill, technique, vista, balls n guts ...... Everything we dreamed of for years. He costed us a serious bit, but it is going to be worth every penny. You will all see his loyalty, just as you have seen how much of a teamplayer he is (despite people calling him a big ego beforehand). You heard it here first. Our next legend that will rip the EPL apart next year. Greetz from the belgian fanboys

I will tell you a secret .... The older you (not the titties) become, the nicer they start to look. And it DOES NOT STOP. EVER. Tragedy of life it is.

Umpf ..... BACK !!! Too much damned work this last week. I missedte pub, ladies!

I nominate T.T. Because he does something nobody else does. Also, it doesnt always have to be the serious, often very repetitive, 2 page posters that are seen as 'honorable' members. Cheers @T.T.

Get in!! What a run before :-)

I care. Big time. Fuck Bayern ffs.

There we go ......... NEVER UNDERESTIMATE an opponent. No-one, ever!!!

Ow plz Torres

Comon Hazard, you beast!!
