Eden Hazard

Definitely not worth £32m or whatever it is if that's how he usually performs.

you should be a comedian

What about his free-kick ability? Now that both Ballack and Drogba are gone, we are without real free-kick shooters. Is he usually accurate with them?

Top player. I hadn't seen him before as I never watch the Ligue 1, but after watching a few videos he has really impressed me. Not being biased, but I seriously think that he's the player that Chelsea need and Chelsea is the club that he needs.

Hopefully he has a long and successful career in the blue shirt. At Man City he'd be just another fish in a large pond, and United already have players similar to him (Valencia, Nani), so he's made the perfect choice imo.

L'Equipe: Chelsea have convinced Eden Hazard to drop £70K from his wages. He is going to earn 100K a week. How is he a mercenary now?

Before tax that is meaning he's going to be earning less than 70k after tax per/week? Wow, what a beast. Told you guys he is now where near as bad as the media purport

Can anyone who speaks French tell me what does Zidane say in the video? Appreciate it!

Nothing special really, he's basically just saying that he has recommended Hazard to Real's president, that he told him that there are great players out there with great qualities and Hazard is one of them and he didn't talk with Mourinho about it cause he assumed that he already knew about Hazard.. He concludes by saying that he likes the player and what he's doing (for the club).

? I know £32 is a lot of money but your paying for both the player that he is today as the potentially worldclass player he could become (given the right support). He's already a very good player but he's still only 21 and he still has stuff to learn.

He's been working on his shot this season and has also developed his freekick taking.

He can kick it like the one i just showed or if it's a bit closer to goal he places the shot.

What's your source there?.

[Belgiannutt 3,201]

Brilliant, could i use this as my sig please?

[TacticalBlues 2,817]

What's your source there?.

Transfer Central on twitter, but the original source is L'equipe who also said Hazard chose Chelsea a day before he did. They are very reliable.

Apart from Torres we've been quite brilliant in the market in the market:

]Wage Bill out:

Alex: £3.5 million p/a

Anelka: £4.5 million p/a

Bosingwa: £4 million p/a

Drogba: £6 million p/a

Kalou: £4 million p/a

Zhirkov: £3.5 million p/a

In the mean time we've been brought the likes of Cahill, Sturridge, Mata and Meireles who ALL (I believe) earn less the aforementioned players. On top of that under the rug signings like Piazon, Feruz, Marin and De Bruyne. Apart from Torres our buys have been astute. Never though I'd say this but Good work CFC board!

Feel free, i took it from facebook

Classy stuff from Hazard if he did take his wages down.

One thing I've been thinking about is whether he will stay with us or move on to Barcelona or RM in the future. What do you guys think?

Replacing high wage players such as Kalou and Anelka with Marin and De Bruyne will go far in the long run.

From watching that video i am very impressed with his close control and his burst of pace, almost Messi like.
