media desperately quoting the figure £78M to try and sell numbers

Hazard's discoverer had a little interview in a newspaper.

Jean-Michel Vandamme is head scout at Lille, claiming that €40m is a real bargain for theire star player.

"My scouts told me that they found a very special player around Brussels (Tubize). I saw a player that analysed the game way faster then all of his opponents."

Altough Anderlecht also showed some interest, still Hazard left at age 14 to Lille.

"We talked more then a year with his parents. But when he signed his contract with us he told me that he would play in the first team when he became 16. I tought, this guy is crazy, but he did it..

"More then 30m pounds isn't to much money. He will need some time to adapt to the Premier League. But after a while everybody will love him for sure."

Hazard is going on vacation tomorrow if I am not mistaken? At least he said he wants to make his move on that time so that everything could be clear for him to go. I think they will announce him today. Mainly because it's Saturday , people are not on work and can see it when he signs. Actually plus that, he plays the game today, he takes a shower, goes , rests a bit, and off to Stamford. Think it will be a better plan.

Expect it to be announced tomorrow rather than today.

Surely he can wait an extra day to go on holiday?

@Moderators/Administrators: Where can we discuss the England - Belgium game? Because a lot of the discussion will be going on here I think.

What prices is that SkySports journalist talking about? The guy with the glasses seems much better informed.

The links on Liverpool having scouted Hazard remind me of West Ham's bid on Neymar.

Hasn't proved himself at club level. Had a decent season last season, that was it. Couldn't hack it at Bayern Munich either.

He was much younger at Bayern though, hes been consistent for Germany over the last 7 years. Nearly has 100 caps and hes 26. World class imo!

I think the dude was tired and obviously not his best position as a false 9.But the dude is class no doubt about it.

[Chelsea? 892]

Nice game for eden. Would like to see him on the wing for us though. Is he more of a Mata or a Nani type player?

[Ryan Fong 2,776]

So when can we expect him holding Chelsea's shirt and put on a cheeky smile now? Can't wait!

I think the dude was tired and obviously not his best position as a false 9.But the dude is class no doubt about it.

Some of his touches and flicks scream quality, he played quite a few passes to put other players ina scoring position, they just didn't take those chances. We also saw his blistering pace and skill, needless to say Im very excited, I just want us to confirm the deal now as soon as possible.
