I've seen nearly all his matches at Lille. And except his first 6 months, where he would dribble with such speed that the rest of the team couldn't follow him, his game has never been about dribbling as much as possible.

On some matches, he had to force things to make things happen but his favorite game is more about quick combinations, one touch deviation (like his backheels in the path of a runner). I think he prefers running towards a zone, drawing defenders to release a runner into space.

The guy dribbling without thinking and not knowing what he would do next was Gervinho at Lille.

True. I think what hazard is lacking is taking more responsibility, i'll give some examples.

• When barcelona is losing, messi takes matters into his hands and dribbles 4 players and smashes the ball in the corner.
• When madrid is losing, ronaldo just comes to life blitz through people with pace and sometimes smashes the ball from long distances to score.
• Last season when tottenham were loosing bale took matters into his hands, beats a few defenders and smashes the ball from long range to win a lot of matches for tottenham
• In brazil, when the matches gets tough, neymar often goes on a solo run and creates an assist or scores.

When you compare all these teams, people say they are one man teams but its about their best players taking more responsibilities when their team needs them.

Thats what hazard needs to do more often now just like the bayern game. He decided to use his natural talent when we needed him. Both goals we scored was directly due to hazards impact and long may that continue.

between the two of you, kellz is the one who understood what I meant (his post is perfect)... I never meant for him to overdo it. Just to do it when we frigging need him to do it because he failed to solve games for us when he's the one that has more quality to solve them.

I wonder if Mourinho is the one who started calling him that or if he followed others calling him that.

I think it was the english players that started calling him that because they had trouble pronouncing "eden".

@Barbara I find it more hilarious that he actually likes it!!!

@Belgiannutt seriously!! How hard is it to pronounce Eden!!! (Unless I'm pronouncing it wrong I only just realized I was pronouncing Courtois name wrong) screw you Belgians and your ridiculously hard to pronounce names

Mourinho added he had given Hazard a nickname. ‘I call him Eddie because it is easy, many of them call him Eden but for me Eddie is easy, he didn’t complain.’

as far as I can say it's 'iden' how you pronounce his name.

How is Courtois? I'd say 'curtoah' but I have no clue

I say Eden the same. I heard Courtois as Cur-toy. It was far different (and made more sense) than my Cour-toise

[Zoro 151]

The great thing about him is that he knows when to dribble and when to pass.

Complete opposite of Theo Walcott then lol.

No if i remember correctly Ashley Cole called him Eddie in an interview last season. So it was before José that players were calling him that.

[Belgiannutt 3,201]

While searching for the interview i found that there's a British comedian called Eddie IZZARD.

That's probably why they call him Eddie.

azar in the word in Portuguese for lack of luck or bad luck. You didn't enlight us in the courtois part though

So I've been saying iden razar when it's édin. at least thanks to The Skipper I know how to say de Bruyne

[Sidzeret 2,257]

Ed might be the easiest thing.

Well i'd say Djames has the most correct pronounciation. cur-toy. Although yours isn't to far off.

Well maybe Skipper can teach the english commentators on how to correctly pronounce De Bruyne

I always cringe when they say his name.

It really does annoy the crap out of me. You'd think they'd at least do a little bit of research beforehand but obviously that's beyond them.
