Hamilton 2,120 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Thorgan is the new captain at Zulte. The club feels this is another step in his career and a sign that he's one of the most important players at the club.

Stats 7,142 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Good on him but tbh I think that is a crazy and stupid decision to make. He is 20, on loan and obviously not going to sign a permanent deal there. I can imagine a few players being unhappy about his appointment as captain. This is a link someone posted btw which supports the view about players being unhappy:http://www.demorgen.be/dm/nl/998/Voetbal/article/detail/1679731/2013/08/02/Thorgan-Hazard-wordt-kapitein-van-Zulte-Waregem.dhtmlReally surprised. If it is true I don't understand why we would set that as part of the conditions. Don't think Hazard needs to the burden of being captain. Quite shocking IMO.

Yeah remarkable if that's true about Cfc's conditions.Lot of fans are not happy with the chairman who wanted to sell the club some months ago and now this, Zulte was one of the teams where everybody got his nose in the same direction and where you never heard something bad about one of the players or so..

Hamilton 2,120 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Meanwhile the other players reacted and saying that Davy De Fauw is still the captain for them..Coach Dury didn't showed up for the pc today..So, not an easy situation for Thorgan imo..

Stingray 9,441 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 It is really weird if it was one of Chelsea's conditions to loan him out back to Zulte ... It appears it is making the group fall apart (apparantly that decision wa communicated just before the PSV game ...). Two players are threatening to leave. This is not good for Thorgan. I wonder whats the strategy behind it ... Do they want to toughen him up? Make him able to cope with pressure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Why would Chelsea ask for this? Makes no sense. I don't buy that for one second. zolayes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 I find it highly unlikely that we asked them to make him captain. There must some issues behind the scenes at Zulte. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't buy that for one second. neither do I ,,utter bullshit to suggest it Could be bullshit ... It is just in the article in the conditional sense 'it is supposed to have been part of the deal with Chelsea'. I have a feeling that story will unfold considering the strong reaction of the player group at Zulte. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Either Thorgan asked for it himself, or the Zulte coach used it as bait to get Thorgan to choose Zulte instead of Anderlecht. Either way, it's a very weird scenario to make a loanee captain. The others should be pissed and rightly so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorando 184 Posted August 2, 2013 Share Posted August 2, 2013 Weird things happening there... Zulte's coach refused to go the press conference today. . while the players of Zulte made a statement in the press saying Davy De fauw remains the real captain in their eyes.

Hamilton 2,120 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Now the press is saying that Cfc and his manager also wants Thorgan to take all corners, free kicks and penalty's. They want to learn him to take responsibility and working on his goals and assists.If the other teammembers can't cope with this(and it looks they can't atm) it will all backfire at him imo.
