Official : Eden Hazard to Real Madrid

This is really the wrong night to tell us signing hazard for 30 mil more than Bayern paid for a fullback is a bad business

Still less than barca paid for Coutinho or dembele

Why is no one discussing the potential transfers of James Flaccid to Man United? Or Jesper Woistdasbad to Bayern Munich? No respect for the former Europa League winner and CL group stage heavyweight.

absolute numpty business

LOL

he dominated EPL. By far EPL's best individual players for several seasons...

shut it.

He's not going to score a scissor-kick goal in a CL final, that much I can predict

At least he can dribble... unlike fakenaldo

Oh and by far a better dribbler than both Ribery and Robben.

His successful dribbling stats are similar to those of Messi's this season.

Would rather have him than Dembélé or Coutinho no doubt. Luckily he's 28 already and will decline in 3 or 4 years.

1. I haven't heard anybody say "fakenaldo" since 2011. Clearly, you have missed to install a couple updates.
2. Putting two consecutive lol emojis is redundant, let alone three.
3. hans was referring to Bale's scissor kick goal in the final against Liverpool and not Ronaldo's against Juventus.

Please, and I mean this in the nicest way possible, don't you ever, ever, ever compare him to Messi. Ever.

Doc

Soz 3 lols

Pretty sure fakenaldo won 4 in 5 CL's with us.

Looks like we were doing just fine this season without him. 3rd place la liga trophy.

Oh great another Lol Liga fan making assumptions without actually watching him play consistently.

I bet you thought Courtois was the best keeper in the PL too

Hazard gets constantly praised as the best in England by players, managers, pundits, etc yet on this forum stating that seems like an extremist idea.

Hazard is absolutely the best player in the EPL.. i mean that's not up for debate at this point

Of course everyone is now undermining Hazard's talent when he moves from his current club. Its like when VARca fans were trying to convince everyone that Neymar was not a great player at all when he left Messi's shadow

Nah, we're undermining this bullshit fantasy land where he's been the best in the league for years.

He hasn't, this year was the first time he actually played to a standard worthy of the hype and reputation.

But i shouldn't be surprised, Madrid fans were convincing themselves they bought the best keeper in the league last summer when he hadn't been even once lol.

Seriously, with Mole on this. We should not ignore the fact he had some seasons (not all obviously) at Chelsea where he really was ghosting through matches particularly the ones where he really was needed. I mean, sideway dribbling vs Wales immediately springs to mind.

From my own personal viewpoint, his football got better after Euro 2016 and this season has to be his most consistent yet and (personal opinion once again) I feel I am gonna see some of his best performances in his career from hence forth. If Madrid could 3-4 years of this level of football (or Chelsea if things really shit the bed with the deal), excellent. Really excellent.

Hard to judge Hazard. Unlike most of the top attacking players in the top 6, Hazard has almost exclusively had some of the most defensive managers in the game- Benitez, Mourinho, Conte.

Finally under a proper attack minded manager in Sarri, Hazard has been absolutely outstanding. Is Hazard the best player in the PL? Maybe not, but he is certainly up there with Salah, Mane, and Aguero this season. The real question is will he do well with RM under ZZ? I don't see any reason why not.

I didn't compare him to Messi you imbecile. I said he has similar dribbling success statistics to him this season, top in europe.

Barcelona's Lionel Messi is Europe's top dribbler, while Chelsea's Eden Hazard is best in the Premier League and Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho leads the way in the Bundesliga. Players in Europe's top five leagues have been ranked by the successful dribbles made per minute played. Argentine Messi has completed a dribble every 19.2 minutes, just ahead of Nice's Allan Saint-Maximin (19.. Belgium winger Hazard is third (21) and England's Sancho is sixth (24.1). Hazard has the best success rate for players who attempted at least 100 dribbles, completing 73%. wrote:

people saying hazard is the best player in england when the numbers show he was the 4th best winger in england last season.

Hazard is a glorified Ben Arfa, you'll still get 2-3 years of prime sideways dribble, congrats? I guess

By us you mean Uefa referees and officials?

It really is. He really isn't. He's had a great season and he's up there this year but Mané for example easily had as good a season as him.
De Bruyne was injured all season but it's pretty clear he's a superior player to Hazard.

It's not clear at all lol what nonsense

pure bias

I ain't sure about De Bruyne being this "superior" player. I mean, if you're comparing Kevin to Sergi Roberto then yes, superiority is clear as day. Comparing De Bryune with Hazard isn't exactly clear cut stuff.

Also, hush. You're just lashing out at Madrid because Bayern is not only stuck with Kovac but you're not getting Sane or Dembele. Enjoy the wonderful wide play of Gnarby and Koman.
