For now Hazard is only “thinking in the present”. “In 10 years if I don’t win the World Cup or the Euros or the Champions League and I make a great career then, for me, that’s no problem,” he says.

Disappointing. He should have higher standards.

How many WCs, Euros and Champions Leagues does Zlatan have?

Fantastic today, dribbling into the box and taking shots. When he's in the mood to dribble, he can be devastating

You can have your Neymar.

An absolute beast today.

When he's in this form he's more easy on the eye than a womans fanny.

I fear he'll soon grow tired of the kicking.

He loves a game vs Utd, doesn't he? Arsenal, Utd, City, Liverpool, Spurs have all been conquered by Eden. Only Drogba and, to a lesser extent, Lamps compare when it comes to big game performances.

It's time for that next step. Europe.

I strongly disagree, excluding uninspiring bums. But it's close.

I fear this as well.

 

Massive performance against utd. He always seems to step up his game against them.

Big performance from the boy. Looks like he means business for the rest of the season if you pair it with his recent comments. 

[Leif 6,006]

So solid I mistook him for a rap group from the 90's.

I'm just relieved that a referee stood up for him and made the right decision. Had Man Utd been allowed to get away with kicking Hazard out of the game on national TV you can just imagine what opponents would think. That red sends a clear message but how many refs are that strong? Not many unfortunately.

Great performance. That turn in the first half that sent Smalling out of the stadium was breathtaking.

When Mourinho has hazard as an opponent his game plan is tailored to stopping him playing. When he has him as a player, it's exactly the same.

Jose and United had a game plan.....don't play football but kick the shit out of Hazard....It worked well, Hazard ran them around and they lost

Well the kicking won't stop. He will continually be targeted by any player, at any club, in any country. He is a unique type of player, like Messi, so this will be normal.

Nahh, England is the worst when it comes to the top leagues. Players are permitted so much more. In fact, they're encouraged and praised for it. I've seen a lot of Barcelona games in my life but Messi never gets kicked about like Hazard (last night was of course worse than usual). Neymar receives similar treatment but he's provocative and has given a carte blanche to defenders to come get him because of it.

I remember reading something about Ronaldo saying (behind closed doors) he grew tired of the kicking in England and it was one of the main reasons he left. Don't know if it's true but it makes sense. Thinking they have man up is nice and all but it's a gigantic pain to deal with, prevents you from playing to the best of your abilities and shortens your (top level) career.
