Jase 43,479 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 That's because Hazard has shown he has no problem giving up the glorious goal for an assist.Doesn't mean it was wise of him to shoot from a tight angle when a pass/cross would have been a better option then.

Sturridge played selfishly many times, while Hazard has shown to be giving. That's the difference. You're allowed to mess up in execution or decision-making if you've shown the team scoring the goal instead of you scoring the goal is more important. Fans love that about players. laura90 and The only place to be 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belgiannutt 3,201 Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 Doesn't mean it was wise of him to shoot from a tight angle when a pass/cross would have been a better option then.I think that if he had crossed, it would have been blocked by the defender.Only thing he was able to do was take a quick shot and he did.

DoubleO 192 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Few seasons ago we were missing wingers like Eden and Moses. Now we have those kinds of fast and dynamic players Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Justin and cap were banned because they committed offences that are against the rules in this forum.The scousers and/or whoever you are referring else to are not committing any offences. Posting their own opinion/thoughts is a not a crime, even if many don't agree with it. And like I said before, if you don't agree with what someone said, then just ignore them!"Chelsea is shit. Every player we have is shit and overrated." How about that? I can go on every player thread and say that can't I? Because apparently 'bitee' can...

Stats 7,142 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Alas, the difficulty of humor (especially sarcasm) over the internet. Anyway, I definitely see Hazard becoming a world class player in the EPL, especially if he gains a little weight/strength. I feel like if he was ever completely fresh for a game, he'd be a lot better than he is now, which I still think is quite good. I wish we had put marin in a little earlier to rest him some, he wasn't getting anything done in the second half anyway. He has excellent strength/balance. He is one of the hardest players to shrug off the ball and I think this is a top element to his game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 9,939 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Just had a thought earlier IF Sturridge was the one who slalomed past a few Arsenal and shot from a tight angle like Hazard did on Sunday, many would probably have been fuming... In the words of John McEnroe, "you cannot be serious"? It was the amount of times Daniel Sturridge performed his little side netting cameo which was what people got soo angry about. Hazard doesn't always do it, he actually most of the time looks to pass and assist the player in the better position. Christ are we going to say that everytime Ba misses a shot, "If that was Torres then y'all be going crazy". Hkibou 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Well, Sturridge is a striker and Hazard is a midfielder. It's Hazard's main job to provide for the striker whilst Sturridge's main job to score. Sturridge's greediness is vastly overrated.

Shaan 263 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Eden Hazard vs Arsenalwww.youtube.com/watch?v=SeRk-GUxc4gplayed extremely well for me ... opened spaces for others but no real striker movement in the box for chances becoming goals.. if ba was there we would have been 4-0 up by half time..Fernando pls try look for gaps not follow defenders.. kellzfresh and The Rising Sun 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hkibou 622 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Agreed. We desperately need a defensive midfield player right now! You should go for Cabaye.Didn't watch him for a year and a half (f*uck you Newcastle), but in Lille he was a beast. Him and Eden know each other very well, and he was very good at reading the game and runs of the Belgian. You know how Eden can be hazardous (what a pun !) sometimes trying to make the difference by himself in the midfield and lose the ball in a dangerous zone ? Well in Lille, each time it happened you could be sure Cabaye was right behind him : Eden would lose the ball, he wouldn't even bother trying to get it back, he would start running forward cause he knew Cabaye had his back and would pass it to him in the space created by the lost of the ball.

Spike 12,049 Posted January 23, 2013 Share Posted January 23, 2013 Dear, all Belgians and Lille supporters:When did Hazard start doing rabonas? Was it when Joe Cole joined the club on loan or was he performing them on a constant basis before Cole arrived? I find his fondness for the rabona curious, considering Joe Cole was also very fond of the rabona. It's very interesting to see if Cole influenced Hazard in any way.

I find his fondness for the rabona curious, considering Joe Cole was also very fond of the rabona. It's very interesting to see if Cole influenced Hazard in any way.Pretty hard to say because there's so many good actions to remember with Eden that i'm not really sure when he started doing rabonas.The earliest rabona i can remember was a Coupe de France game against Nantes (or Wasquehal i don't know for sure) the year of the title, the year before Joe Cole arrived. A very beautiful and usefuld one, should have been an assist if our striker Tulio De Melo didn't miss his header.So i know for sure that Hazard didn't start doing rabonas after his acquaintance with Cole. But surely Joe helped him improve his skills in that matter.Tbh i didn't even know Cole was fond of rabona. Can't remember him trying one during his time in Lille...

Many slag him off because of his comments when joining Liverpool (though I'm positive they make all their players say that).He was much loved and adored till that happened.

Many frustrating misses. But i liked him and almost every supporters would have loved him to stay with us for an additional year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
