johnnythefirst 1,076 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Pocognoli is having a decent season with WBA and is a natural LBHe's like five levels below him, even as a natural LB. Every CB we have would be a better choice imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Fong 2,776 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Vertonghen is a cunt in the highest order. Last week he kicked Hazard in the ankle hard, when Eden was holding his ankle in pain on the ground this Vertonghen cunt just walked away! not even a simple pat on the shoulder to his fellow countryman. And that was just a tip of an iceberg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Ryan Fong 2,776 Posted January 5, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted January 5, 2015 Back to Hazard, he is rapidly becoming my favorite footballer or even sportsman of all time. His talent, his personality and his maturity are all in top top class. He is definitely a role model to all the youngs even for old farts (compare to Eden) like myself. Have you ever seen him bad mouthing or physically revenging on the opponents who kicked him nastily time after time after time? No, at least I haven't. All he does just shrug off and start over, I dare to say not many people can achieve his maturity. To sums up, I love him. manpe, Laugh1ngMan, ZOS and 7 others 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greyco 143 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Vertonghen rules you haters. One of the most genuine players in the Belgian squad. He did tap Hazard on his shoulder after that foul, you can even see Hazard give him the thumbs up after he gets back up.One of those players you love when he's in your club and hate when not. He's incredibly popular in Amsterdam because he doesn't have any diva-behaviour.Actually appreciate him more because he's genuine and honest and not one of those media-trained robots that know how to play the masses.

Hamilton 2,120 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 According to the football observatory Eden is the third highest valued player in the world with €99m.

Costa is 4th €84m and Fabregas 8th with €62mhttp://www.football-observatory.com/IMG/pdf/wp93_eng.pdfHow is this ranking calculated ? There are some weird results. I'm bias as fuck when it comes to Hazard but even I don't think Alexis Sanchez, Gareth Bale, Sergio Aguero are worth only 2/3 of Eden Hazard... Neymar, Gotze, Suarez only half of Hazard's worth ? Seems crazy to me, I really wonder how this so-called football observatory got to this conclusion. But when you see that Neuer is worth 10m less that Courtois (35 for Neuer, 45 for Thibaut)... I mean no disrespect to Courtois but it shows this ranking should not be taken seriously imo. borriske and Barbara 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tchekitchek 37 Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 When our crack had only 15. I remember that game against England like it was yesterday... I can't believe it's almost 10 years ago.The game of Hazard against Spain in the same tournament was great too... Bojan Krkic scored a screamer for Spain; he advised Barcelona to sign Hazard afterward. Styles and Coop 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Courtois played in Atlético Madrid (better than Schalke) and is now at Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tautvix 1,321 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Something is wrong with Hazard's new contract... I can easily see Real Madrid as his next destination.. Styles 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Armour 4,712 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Something is wrong with Hazard's new contract... I can easily see Real Madrid as his next destination..There's nothing unusual about it. A lot depends on how Chelsea performs this season.If there are less matches like the Tottenham and Southampton ones, were Hazard pulls in direction to get the result and the rest of the team doesn't , the better.

Styles 9,790 Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Something is wrong with Hazard's new contract... I can easily see Real Madrid as his next destination..Let's be all the way honest here: there is definitely something going on considering Hazard has had an offer(s) for several weeks months now.I wouldn't be surprised if what's holding it up is a release clause. The next contract Hazard signs will take up most of his prime years (24-29) and if he wants to move on he'll be looking to do it in 1 or 2 years time, and a 5-year deal makes that extremely difficult.

The only team comparable to Chelsea in England right now is City, and I don't see much of a reason for Eden to leave Chelsea and remain in the same league in a worse city in a team roughly as good as his previous one. If we're considering the other european leagues, there are only about 3 or 4 clubs which wouldn't be a downgrade from Chelsea, and all of them can and will pay the release clause if they really want Eden. Especially Madrid, which is probably the team Hazard would be more willing to go. Unless he's really not enjoying it here, I don't think he should worry too much about it.
