Rumoured Douglas Costa

[Spike 12,049]

Forward is Mata during the Rafa era.

I think hazard for us is more of a midfielder....

Lampard on the other hand.................

Eh, it is just semantics. I think of Hazard as a forward, I think of Zidane as a MF. No biggie, it is just all different views of the same ocaen.

This may be the case, but Willian has outperformed Douglas Costa quite comfortably at NT level so far.

That was the major reason I didn't want costa here, because we had willian. But I never knew he was a damn good dribbler, almost on Hazard levels imo. And that's what I've always wanted on the right wing, another monstrous dribbler to take markers off hazard. But we just can never get the type I want.

I've seen about every game from munich this year, which is why I comment on Costa thread as much as I do.

When team is fully fit, there is no space for Hazard to start. Coman is playing a lot because of robbery's injuries and Gotze. Hazard would be an upgrade from a teenage Coman, but, when everyone is healthy Munich really is too stacked everywhere outside of Cbs/Cf, which is why I think they will sell benatia and go for either mustafi/laporte.

At PSG, it seems like there is a perfect spot for him after zlatan leaves next summer. He is going to a very technical squad (with a shit manager) in an easier league where he can come in every season unfit.... In addition, I don't know hazard much about his personal background, however, I would assume he would be comfortable in France.

I respectfully disagree. Hazard would find a way into that team. Bayern never have a completely fit team for a more than one or two matchdays, even that's a stretch. Hazard's excellent fitness alone would make him play almost every week and I'm convinced he'd impress enough to claim a spot in the first XI. He hasn't even reached his ceiling yet. Gotze has never impressed consistently and Robben is ageing. Ribery is broken. Costa is playing brilliant football but it remains to be seen how long he'll keep this up.

I'd say that Hazard has a lot more emphasis on attacking and scoring goals than Zidane ever did. Hell, Fabregas and Iniesta have played those positions but you wouldn't exactly call them forwards, would you? I'd be a lot more comfortable playing Zidane as a CM than Hazard, I'll tell you what.

You think so? Hazard is always so busy with starting up attacks rather looking to finish them. He's nothing like a Neymar or Robben. Zidane was more of a playmaker for sure but I see Hazard heading into a similar direction when he reaches that age.

Zidane more comfortable as a CM, I'd agree. But he was never a CM. And a midfielder - whether your name is Riquelme, Figo, Xavi or Makelele- is a midfielder regardless, wouldn't you agree?

Lampard is as much a midfielder as Totti is a striker, Cristiano Ronaldo is a winger and Dani Alves is a defender. They define in-between.

Neuer is trying to hard to in-between GK and defender.

Hazard won't go back to France, he destroyed that league when he was 18-19. He already won everything in France, I can see him go to Real in a few years though.

Meh would rather Alex Teixeira .. In my humble opinion Teixeira is a better player.

[jernej93 569]

Is he a regular for Bayern this season under Ancelotti? He seems like a bench player most of the time Maybe we could put a sneaky bid for him ... left footed winger would be perfect for RW position But I still rate Mahrez higher
