Barbara 15,149 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 I have said it before and will say it again, if Hazard played for anyone else, the same group that harp on about his mythical inconsistency will be saying how amazing he is and hes the 3rd best player in the world etc etc.....Actually I know many people that think the opposite, they don't see what's so amazing about him. Had endless discussions on Twitter in the past defending him from people that say 'oh yeah, the little dribbler in your team that sometimes - against the middle table teams - decide to run a little show'.What is so hard for people to understand is that all of this is perception, each person in the world will have a different one. Bottom line is Hazard, Mourinho and even Hazard's father already commentated about these two areas he needs to improve. But I guess they have the right to comment whereas people who aren't close to him don't. I lost account of how many times ONLY THIS SEASON I've seen Mourinho and Hazard saying he needs to be more consistent and have a killer instinct. Because what can I think when Hazard and Mourinho say 'I need to do this/that every match' 'I need to start every match in a mission' 'He needs to start the game and do something amazing, direct' 'He needs to do that every match', they're talking exactly about those two things (ofc I don't remember the exact words each of them used, but a quick search would give it).So I guess there are at least three more people in the group with me.

Wizacar 93 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Cock HAHA. Jose just said fuck man u . Costa's long term health is more important than a mid table team. Wonder if it would be the same if city one. Either way THanks Fat sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,916 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Haven't seen any reliable source report that he's out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polo7 3,496 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Well if Costa is out, I would rather see Schurrle occupy that striker role. Drogba just isnt good enough anymore, even against Uniteds defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jype 6,398 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Haven't seen any reliable source report that he's out.The only one saying it at the moment is a Manchester United fan blog. Today a number of English newspapers have been reporting that Costa is set to start and even though we all know the quality of Daily Mail etc. I know which one I'll trust first if it's between them and one random Man Utd fan.

Namika 922 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Izzy with the team. No Costa with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Apparently it's all because of this post he made on his Facebook:"To do what fella?" did raise a laugh Probably nothing then. With Schurrle and Rami back I really doubt he's have a place on the bench unless there is some new injury that we don't know about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thendo 1,088 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Interesting if Izzy Brown is in the squad, great talent. Hopefully gets some minutes vs Shrewsbury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Di Maria is a fantastic player, and IMO was definitely Madrid's best player last season... However it seems like everyone has forgotten that before last year he was one of the most inconsistent players out there. Di Maria at Hazard's age was nowhere near Hazard's level. The fact that they are already on par (IMO) at the moment despite Hazard being 4 years younger is an incredible testament to Hazard's ability. This is Di Maria's ceiling. Hazard has another level he can go to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel1980 1,425 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 So were Jose's words that "Costa has a chance to start" mindgames and he actually won't start? It did sound fishy when Jose admitted it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papers could just have been putting 2+2 together based on Costa finally training.I would have easily believed Daily Mail story if it was by Neil Ashton, but not so sure about others.

Di Maria was incredibly frustrating and inconsistent at Madrid until last year, far more inconsistent than Hazard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazard has another level he can go to.I disagree. I think hazard has reached his ceiling as well at a young age and wont improve as a player. He may get better stats, but attributes wise, I dont see him getting better? What do you think he can improve and will improve?Hazard is at his physical peak right now and dribbling wise is one of the best in the world... Don't see much improvement as I always said about Lukaku even though he was like 18-19 at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Namika 922 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 If Costa isn't here, maybe Eden false nine and Ramires on the wing against Di Maria ? José could do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted October 26, 2014 Share Posted October 26, 2014 Didn't Costa travel with the team? Maybe he's doing some sight-seeing in Manchester. Truly bizarre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
