Eden Hazard

[Gilvorak 3,734]

Hazard has won two games with assists in this World Cup and nearly a 3rd against the USA. Disgraceful to sub him off.

strange kid this guy, football is not his primary concern though, that's for sure

He has been bad this World Cup, but the whole team has been bad as well. He can't do it himself, especially when vertonghen doesn't overlap consistently enough.

I did have high expectations of him before the tournament started so naturally I feel disappointed, but I really would encourage people to give him some slack since the whole team sucked.

Even when he played badly he still were able to create chances in single moments, he just needs to do that consistently and it will come with age and experience.

It's unbelievable really, twice in the last 20 mins as well. Wilmots is the biggest liability of this NT but will be hailed by the new legion of pseudo fans saying he took them far

How long is Wilmot's contract?

How long is Wilmot's contract?

Until the next world cup. Yep.

Get your act together man realy, this was the highest stage possible to show the world who you are and you failed

Wouldn't adan be more ideal for wilmots?

Moreso than hazard.

Sure, blame Hazard. He only needed 1 moment, still had 15 mins. We always pressure the oppnent in the last 10 mins. Absolute madness to bring that shit from Spurs

what do you mean?

[Barbara 15,149]

came here just to say I don't dare reading one post in this thread at the moment. I feel what I might end up reading, so I better stay blind to it.

Hope he continues to grow. If there's one manager capable of making Hazard live up his full potential is José Mourinho. I think Eden needs some attitude adjustments and Mourinho is the right man for the job. But that's all that is needed - and time for him to grow.

Adan excels in a few things when I watch united games....

Whipping in crosses and set pieces.... I know you guys have kdb and vertoghen already, but adan was fantastic in those areas.

Wilmots/belgium in general reminded me of moyes united team..

Hazard was never played while on 'speed'. We didnt play his game. He also didnt look for it at all! Clusterfuck for Hazard imo.

Also: we have a tweedeklas trainer.

He's not nearly as good as you think he is if you'd consider playing him over Hazard. Immense talent but still very inconsistent. I'd wanted more cameos but Wilmots likes Chadli.

[Chelsea? 892]

It's like he doesn't know or understand how good he is. He doesn't have that killer instinct sort of mentality a lot of the time. He's been so timid and passive this tournament.

Maybe he's extremely exhausted? Who knows. Shows his unbelievable skill in flashes but then has games like this where he doesn't use his pace and burst and instead plays at walking pace.

He knows his talents. He tried and couldn't do it. Hazard has played similar to this in his chelsea career too. He is passive 90% of the time until he gets a chance and goes past a defender. We need to stop overrating Hazard's talents. He's not a Messi/Robben/Neymar type player; Hazard is similar to Iniesta and Gotze

He was pretty shit you know, but he always is for Belgium. The thing that bothers me is the quality of the replacement knowing you'll get nothing from that nonfootballer while Hazard can always come up with something that can win you the game.

Quarter final, 15 mins to go.. madness.

[Korea 734]

Where that kid that keeps saying Hazard is on a different level than Neymar, james and Gotze.
