🇧🇪 Eden Hazard

MADRID RULE OUT HAZARD MOVE

Real Madrid will not sign Eden Hazard this summer as new coach Julen Lopetegui wants to make Isco a key part of his project at the Bernabeu, reports AS.

Madrid have been linked heavily with the Chelsea forward since the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus earlier this month.

However, AS report the European champions have definitively ruled out a move for the Belgium international due to Lopetegui’s confidence in Isco.

Madrid are admirers of Hazard but are not going to sign him and are aware that he would cost around €200m this summer.

They are also keen to avoid blocking the first-team path for Marco Asensio, and have dismissed the prospect of making a ‘Galactico’ signing this summer. 

Thats that then lol

We could still stand a chance on a Asensio swap of some sort but I do like Isco And not even a clickbait link to Icardi thats how farfetched even they see us.

Poor Hazard if this is true. Did his best to whore himself out to Madrid. Unlucky!

[Special Juan 28,141]

Making him captain is absolutely the right thing to do, and I'm glad the club has taken the stance of £200M or no go, he's world class so his price tag matches that.

It is peculiar though, even with Real not pushing for him. We all know he wants to go there. He has made all the noise for the past few years but isn't prepared to hand in a transfer request to force it. Is he undecided or afraid that Real might not come after him if he goes all out to force the move?

He'll never sign a new contract. This is our Sanchez situation.

Hes not got that strong character to fully believe in himself I dont think. I've always thought hes had some character or mental weaknesses. And they come out from time to time and you can see it in him on the pitch.

Was talking in another thread and was said that making him captain might give him a bit more ooomph. It seems to have helped him with Belgium.

I'm willing to try owt for the team but I dont see him being able to stir up the team to do better when he has that trouble with himself at times.

How will Dave take it?

This is exactly where my mind went to. Cesar seems like a chill guy and all, but would he have no problems if Hazard is made captain over him, being our Vice-captain and all?

Seems like Azpi is getting the hate all of a sudden because of this on Twitter.

Tbf I doubt he’d be too bothered, he’d probably understand in all fairness. He’d still be a vice captain anyways. Making Hazard captain hints even more at Cahill leaving too. Don’t think Cahill would be worried anyway, similarly to Azpi but Rugani in and then this rumour? If it’s only a rumour fair enough but if not ok, maybe he’s away.

I would think so and he's close friend with Hazard anyway. But it might hurt from a professional pride point of view? It is a chance to captain one of the biggest sides in the world and it is suddenly taken away from him just because we want to persuade Hazard to stay. Doesn't exactly seems fair.

Is that in the 'Cahill wouldn't be worried# if he left or wouldn't be worried to lose tthe captaincy?

Cause he reckons in his mind he was jumping into JTs boots. Been trying to rack my brain remembering the game when he came on late as a sub, went over to Dave and accepted the armband off him. Only a few minutes to go which was very telling I thought. It doesn't take a armband to be a captain and get respect from players.

He might have the guts but I dont see the respect. Theres been times where hes made the wrong pass and the likes of Luiz and Cescy have shouted at him waving arms about.

I wonder how he would get on at Manure?

True which is why I don’t think we will actually offer him it in all fairness. Who knows. It would be a good move if it got him to stay but also possibly have conflicting issues.

IMHO one of our biggest mistakes was losing Mata. He would have been one of our all time bests if it wasn't for Mou. He started as he meant to go on.

Mata's one i can't blame Mou for, his decline has arguably been as steep as Torres's.

How would you feel if you worked somewhere everyone of your workmates loved you. You was  amazing at what you did, happy to get to work. A new boss took over and thought you was a cunt. He started not giving you jobs and never talked to you. Then he sacked you but you got another job at a big company only to find the same fuckin boss that sacked you had now become your boss again!!!

I know i would be highly chuffed and might just get into my head a bit. Add that to Mou not finding the right place to play him it all adds up.

You know as well as I do how players egos and emotions play just as big a part as their skills. Mou isn't the best man manager in the world is he lol
