He's been the best lb in the tournament so far.... United will be kicking themselves going all in for Shaw rather than Ricardo.

Hazard is not an aggressive player from what I've seen. Next season, Costa will command the ball go through him moreso than Eden running the show. Also, Cesc will probably require Hazard to start making runs rather than waiting all the time for the ball to come to him and he do his dribbling magic.

Nyfc has 1 player on their roster...... Ash can be number 2.

Its pretty simple. The tactics dont favor hazard and he is not their n1 option. Which is why kdb looks like belgium best player every game. At chelsea, the tactics favor him and allow him to be n1 option.

because belgium brought 2 cfs to the world cup.

When benteke comes back from injury, does Lukaku have a place on the squad now?

Remember when eden said chelsea don't play football/only counter attack.. Thats exactly how belgium scored all their goals.

Lukaku ran over a tired defender. Never tried to win any longballs and doesnt even take it to the corner flag at the end. Origi did fantastic this game and is a lot better for belgium

He had good moments in the game, but the 20 year old american is attacking him regardless because Hazard doesnt defend.

Kaka to Orlando FC.

His job was to defend when you have defensive delinquents in Ozil and Cristiano. At Chelsea, in a pace based league, his job will be to defend the wings more. Similar to what Willian has to do. Not on the wings and not providing width. Di Maria is such a talented player, he deserves better than what people were calling him during his tenure under Jose.

I'm really interested seeing what Pep does.... Besides Rode and Lewandowski, I can see 1-2 more players coming in. Next season, I fully expect them to challenge for the triple.

Under Jose, his job was to defend and run. At Chelsea under Jose, his job will be the same. I like Di Maria, however, he knows better.

I would break the bank for Pogba. Can you imagine when teams park the bus, Pogba will be licking his lips knowing he can slammed the ball from anywhere.

How exactly are they going to accommodate Suarez, neymar and messi at the same time? I will never understand why Barca bought neymar.

Kroos to RM doesn't make any sense. They already bought the spainard last season and have isco +di maria with modric and casimerio. Also, alonso for another season or 2. I can see him being benched at madrid and flopping.

No, he will be labeled a headless chicken again by fans and Mourinho will play him on the wings.

MLS here we come!

During the germany-algeria game, ESPN announcers kept saying Madrid signed him.

Cristiano and Messi flopped quite a bit....

I think Jose was disappointed, but kind of understood where he was coming from.

Actually, Jose did, which allowed Mata being sold to be an easy decision for him.

thats cool.

In the CC, Neymar was more towards the left, while Oscar played in the middle more often than not. However, in the world cup its been Hulk-Neymar-Oscar. When Oscar played in the middle for Brazil against Croatia in the second half, Brazil defensively were getting worked on the wings and Scolari reverted back to Neymar in the middle. I don't know if its Scolari or the brazil federation that tells Scolari to make sure Neymar is the focal point of Brazil...

Yes, because Suarez doesn't flop around half the game.. like Neymar does.... said no one ever. Hazard needs to learn how to fall and dive/flop if he wants to extend his career. All those little knocks to his ankles and the rest of his body will come back to long term injuries for him, which will be very difficult to overcome when he gets older.
