One of the best DM and B2B there is and has soo much potential!!! If I were in charge of transfers he would be my number 1! Love him as a player and hope jose gets him(he was interested at real)!

I actually agree that Oscar maybe should never play that right side full time, but it would be such a shame to leave him out. I love him as a player and he will be a worldclass player in the future, I have no doubts.

But at least we should go for another right winger. Di Maria is so overrated it hurts and I don't like his falling on the ass at times. He can have the odd good games but he has too many bad games (and yes, I watch all Real games because of Mourinho). I don't know who would be available though..

he is good, but at zenit he was bad. also, he aint the type of player, we need. we need someone who can build-up a play and offer us creativty. witsel is kinda similiar to fellaini- no build-up player, just someone with power and dynamics, who can steer into the box. also he has a good distance shot, but he aint no creative player. futhermore, he would be really expensive (zenit paid 40 m for him)

[DanishBlue 426]

And hey, about Witsel: wouldn't it be great to have another Belgian? Hazard, Lukaku, KdB (if he isn't sold), Courtois and Witsel. That would almost be half the national squad

Mourinho NOT God, claims Eden Hazard to French newspaper

Can't believe they actually make a news out of that!

[mediator 2,026]

That's Bullshit, he told something like that "he is not god but not too far"

I'm tired of those bad translations...

"C'est simplement le meilleur entraîneur du monde. Ici, ce n'est pas un dieu mais presque"

This is simply the best manager of the world, he is not a god but almost (or something like that)

This mirror is pure garbage "Heretic: Eden Hazard takes on a diabolical form"

[Jase 43,479]

That's Bullshit, he told something like that "he is not god but not too far"

Bloody typical of the English media to twist what he meant!!

[Hutcho 8,443]

Lol.

Breaking News.

Mourinho isn't God...

Slow news day then.

4-3-3.

[Ronaldo 28]

4-3-3.

Makes you wonder why he plays 433, yet in Madrid it was always 4231.

He played 4-2-3-1 at Inter also, and i'm sure he'd use that if he returns here.

maybe cause of personnel?
