Stingray 9,441 Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 I was convinced he'd never make it in Chelsea, I still am tbh, but he's made remarkable progress..True ... He suprised me as well. He could just make it! Id give him an EPL loan next year! Hamilton and Weckerz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamilton 2,120 Posted November 29, 2013 Share Posted November 29, 2013 What I also noticed about Thorgan is that, even though his defensive work rate was decent, he seemed to have a lot of tactical freedom in attacks. Something we can't afford to give his brother here at Chelsea, IMO.Could be.Imo Thorgan's stamina and workrate is much higher then Eden's. But Eden is the more explosive one of the two. But if you look at Thorgan in a game, this dude is everywhere, all game long..Btw, journo's asked Eden who's the best of the three, Eden - Thorgan or Kylian..My dad! said Eden Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnythefirst 1,076 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 Don't forget Thorgan is playing in the Belgian League, If Eden was playing here in a decent team and in a free role, he'd probably score 2-3 goals each weekend (would be nice practice ).Thorgan is a very good player, but as of now nowhere near Eden's level or that of the starting eleven of the national team.

Hamilton 2,120 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 A rumour popping my screen today.Anderlecht are trying to loan Thorgan from january untill end of season, it appears that Hazard and Anderlecht allready agreed some kind of deal. It's up to Chelsea now if they go ahead with it.Thorgan scored 12 goals and assited another 14 this season in all competitions. So allready he took another step this season, a move to Anderlecht would be another step in his career, but is it smart to do this mid-season? I don't know really.. zolayes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mediator 2,026 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Wasn't the loan until the 30/06/2014 ?In case of recalling option, Chelsea would have to pay insane money to Zulte... to loan him back to Anderlecht? I don't buy this.You can find a recalling option with players that could walk into our squad just "in case of". Thorgan isn't ready yet and far from that.

Hamilton 2,120 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Hm, don't know if it's for 1,5 year.. Could be tough..If Anderlecht is willing to pay some part of that? ...At Anderlecht he would be surrounded with better players, but also tougher competition, at Zulte he has nothing to fight for..

Don't know how much game time he would receive. That could be just mind game to take him off from Zulte, a direct title rival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamilton 2,120 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Chelsea scout Piet de Visser thinks it's a bad idea to move Thorgan to Anderlecht."Why should we let him go to a team that isn't doing better then Zulte-Waregem at the moment."De Visser praised Zulte's coach Franky Dury, saying he played a big part in the development of the player the last 2 seasons. "We won't let him go to Anderlecht that easy." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hamilton 2,120 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 PSV were interested to buy Thorgan, but Chelsea sent them walking.They don't want to sell, and Thorgan wants to stay in Belgium a little longer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ja1 1,166 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Thorgan HazardAge: 20Nationality: BelgiumClub: Zulte Waregem (on loan from Chelsea)Position: WingerGood fit for: A Premier League loan move The wordHazard is hoping to follow in his brother's footsteps at Stamford Bridge but he is aware that a loan switch elsewhere is likely to be his next move. "After one-and-a-half years at Zulte Waregem I feel I'm getting closer to the level of Chelsea's first team, but I'm not there yet," he told Sport Voetbal Magazine. "I don't think Chelsea will be the next step in my career. If you see the difficult times Kevin De Bruyne, a Belgian international, is having at Chelsea, if you see how many other stars they have on loan all over Europe. I hope my next step will be one abroad, on loan." Kristof's expert viewThe brother of Eden is the best midfielder in the Belgian league this season, scoring nine times and assisting 10. He's a different type of player as his brother, who's an explosive winger. He's less talented, but more determined and physically stronger than Eden. He plays as a real number 10, has a good technique, dribbles well, has excellent passing and scores goals. He also has pace and dictates the tempo.He has a good chance of winning the Golden Boot, the award for the best player of 2013 in the Belgian League. He really is the beating heart of Zulte Waregem. He is likely to play there for the rest of the season unless Chelsea decide to call him back (which he doesn't expect) although Anderlecht are also keen to take him for six months. Next year he wants to join a team outside of Belgium on loan and his ultimate dream is to play with his brother in the same team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stats 7,142 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 ^Thorgan's extract from this article: http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11095/9094094/targets-belgiumBasically Sky Sports' Belgian correspondent's views on 5 young Belgians that are being linked with PL teams. Seems like he rates Thorgan Hazard highly, and he is actually quite critical of other players in the article. Nice article. Surprised he has said Thorgan is physically stronger than Eden though. Thorgan is a lot younger and has been playing in a league that is not as physical as the Premier League. Even though Eden Hazard is not the biggest he has one of the best balance in the whole of the PL which is why it is so difficult to knock him off the ball. Thunk that is too early to say he is stronger than Eden but if he recognises that Thorgan is also got good balance that is a good sign as when he gets older, this will help him as he will have the pace and technique combined with the balance to make it in the PL imo.

johnnythefirst 1,076 Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 "He's less talented, but more determined and physically stronger than Eden."What a bullshit sentence. How is Eden not "determined"? And they seem to have a similar build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
