Eden Hazard

[Slam Dunk 1,442]

I wouldn't say Ronaldo is underrated. He is a better natural athlete (probably the best) than Messi, but Messi is a better natural footballer. Frankly, I haven't seen enough of Hazard to be able to make any comparisons, but I don't see how he HAS to be compared to either. Can't he just be Eden Hazard?

Soon enough he can be. In a few years we could be comparing up and coming players to Hazard and Gotze rather than CR7 and Messi, but for now we can't.

LMFAO, to be fair it's 2 months ago and Nike organised it though

Cristiano Ronaldo isn't underrated. The problem is that the media treats him and Messi differently. This is what we're talking about, Messi vs. Ronaldo, because they are the leaders of this generation even if we like it or not, even they are worth it or not.

The media likes to make Messi look like this "saint sent by God on Earth to teach everyone football, the angel who never drinks, never has more girlfriends and lovers than he should, etc." Ronaldo, on the other hand, seems to be the antagonistic in this situation. "He's a great football player, BUT that's not the main thing about him". He's arrogant, he uses tones of hair gel, and other stuff like this. That's why people don't really see how fantastic Ronaldo is as a player, because he's always put in the shadow of Messi and his qualities are very often put in the shadow of his flaws as a human being.

Remember how almost no one said a thing after Messi shot that ball to the Real Madrid fans in the past season? No one said a thing after Messi hit the microphones after he scored against United in the UCL final. But when Ronaldo pushed Guardiola because he was stealing time, everyone was dismayed and shocked and mocked Ronaldo for weeks.

Sorry for the off-topic comment.

On topic: Hazard has a huge potential to become one of the greatest, but he needs to stay focused on his work and to stop thinking about money and who pays more. This is why players like Balazs Dzsudzsak go to Anzhi and end their career. He must think about where he can improve as a football player, where he can win trophies, because this is what makes him a great football player, not the money.

Spot on Cosmin. The unfair treatment of CR7 is sickening. It's not like Messi is by far the better player. Only a bit better and lately the roles are being reversed. Messi is becoming the big game bottler and Ronaldo the one who steps up and performs. But of course Messi's friends at UEFA will give him the Ballon D'or year after year....

He probably won't be worth 200,000k a week but I expect him to stay for a couple years, then we can sell him for twice of what he bought him for.

According to BBC Radio, Hazard to Man United for 32m is a done deal.

Hmmm...

Some guy that has said to be from MUFCTV reported the same. Well, in the end, I don't really give a damn. Would rather take Hulk, Johnson, Belhanda or other right/left wingers to help us.

[YuriZhirkov 106]

Scary if Man U gets both Hazard and Kagawa...

[Jase 43,479]

United can't be getting both Hazard and Kagawa. If they do, what are they gonna with their current wingers and even the strikers?!

[DDA 9,770]

Oh well.. fuck him.. lets get Hulk and Moura and tear them a new asshole next season!

C'est une information qui fuse désormais sur les sites anglais : la perle du LOSC aurait décidé de signer en faveur du club mancunien. Eden Hazard,courtisé également par Manchester City et Chelsea, aurait donc enfin fait son choix.

Frédéric Paquet, directeur général adjoint du LOSC, a tenu à tempérer l'enthousiasme des medias anglais : « On n'a aucune information dans ce sens. Aujourd'hui, officiellement, Eden n'a signé nulle part. »

Auteur d'une saison exceptionnelle, Eden Hazard a été élu meilleur joueur de Ligue 1 cette saison. Il a achevé son parcours au LOSC par un triplé dimanche face à Nancy (4-1). Désirant rapidement être tranquille, le Belge a décidé de dévoiler très prochainement le nom du club au sein duquel il évoluera la saison prochaine.

This is information that fuse now on English sites: the pearl of LOSChave decided to sign for the club Mancunian. Eden Hazard, alsocourted by Manchester City and Chelsea would have finally made ​​his choice.

Frederic Paquet, deputy director general of Lille, held to temper the enthusiasm of the English media: "We have no information to this effect. Today, officially, Eden has not signed anywhere. "

Author of an outstanding season, Eden Hazard has been voted the best player in Ligue 1 this season. He completed his journey to Lilleby a triple on Sunday against Nancy (4-1). Desiring to be quietquickly, the Belgian decided to unveil soon the name of the club in which he will play next season.

Hazard agent: "Eden will make up his mind after Belgium's matches vs Montenegro & England, then he'll go on vacation with an eased mind."

and "We have received the propositions of all interested clubs, Eden isn't negotiating anymore because everything is now clear."

[termninja 5,290]

He has said he didn't know where he is going 2 days ago and you already expect to know his destination? It will take some time, gather up your patience and hope for the best. He has delayed his decision probably because of us so we have a chance. Plenty of people will try to get some attention for creating rumors since Hazard is pretty much in lots of media's headlines...

It is a completely idiotic argument that he is a money grabbing twat for wanting to join the Manchesters. If I was him, I would also want to play in the CL, and as we were out of CL and Arsenal is Arsenal the decision would be between Blue and Red parts of Manchester.

The kid is a quality. He is arrogant, but that has also played a part in his amazing performances. He is driven by the desire to be the best in the world and as each day passes he is getting nearer to his goal. Lots of players like him are similar, Ronaldo, Robben, Ribery etc...

Eden is the best winger available out there and signing him would a be transfer bomb.
