On another note though, would what would happen to Bebe and Fletcher if we signed Messi and Xavi? Dont wanna hold back Bebe's development or anything...

Would not want Valencia to leave for either.
The thing with Eden Hazard is, he is a player who would fit fantastically into a team like Arsenal, but Manchester United play such a traditional (some say dated) use of wingers, that it makes it difficult for these kind of players to come and fit right in. I imagine if he joined say, Arsenal, he would slot right in and feel at home, but if any player joins us, it's a hit and miss situation whether the player can adapt into our system.
On top of all this, there is just too much heat surrounding this player for us to be sounded out as genuine contenders to sign him. He'll get 50% extra wages warming Real Madrid's bench.

Tell that to that boy Ronaldo.
If they're good enough, we accomodate them, no question about it. We practically redefined the winger role to make the best use of his talent.
Then I'll tell it to Bebe & Tosic
Ronaldo was a freak of nature, he made sure the team accommodated him by itself, it takes some player to do that. Most players we buy we don't expect to be that good and simply fit into the current set up, and especially as Hazard already has build a reputation for himself, the price we pay for him would increase making it more of a risk.Your on your own. Couldn't careless to be honest.
I don't think people would be particularly annoyed. Two young fantastic talents replacing a player who's possibly at the end of his time here (Park), and player who had an awful injury and hasn't been the same player since (Valencia).
If we have even a remote chance of getting them, we should go for it.
Gotze and Hazard is a fecking dream world. Imagine how good that would be!!
In reality we may get Rodwell.

They are the sort of signings we need to make if Fergie is to ever have a chance of winning the CL again.
What could they possibly need him for? Unless they've already given up on Nasri. I guess it doesn't matter though, money isn't a problem.
He really is a fantastic player. I hope he doesn't go to City.
I think he'll end up going to Real Madrid if I'm being honest. There's obviously the connection to Zidane, and Real Madrid can add a health salary on the top of that as well. I'd love it if we could sign him, but unfortunately, I can't really see that happening. We're not desperate for a winger at the moment, anyway, so we won't be missing out all that much.
He is not just a winger. He is a Ozil-type player. He can play central attacking mid too.
He can, but I don't think we're in desperate need of a player there either, considering Rooney often plays there. I would class Rooney as a slightly more advanced second striker, but the whole idea of the role is the same.
So you need no backup? Can Rooney play there every game? Hazard is a playmaker. A Hazard-Rooney combo in big games will be more damaging than a Hernandez/Welbeck-Rooney combo.
I'm not saying that he wouldn't provide good backup, but remember the price. I don't want us to pay what potentially could be a club record fee for a backup player. Hazard/Rooney would be a good combo, but I personally prefer to see Rooney in the playmaker role.
Well it looks like we are getting Gaitan for £30m anyway. Hazard is way better and younger. And Hazard will not be a backup.
His agent is saying city are going to make a bid.
Not even a mention. Close thread.
So this and with Gotze declaring his love for Spanish football and how he would rather play for many of their great teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona, instead of playing in England. A pretty lean muppet year is ahead of us. The year of the Wr8.
All that list indicates to me is his agent saying these are the top clubs who'll spunk obscene amounts of money on him. Understandable why we and Arsenal aren't mentioned.
I think M'Vila at £16 million is the more likely option for us. Not entirely convinced by him myself though, but he does seem highly rated.
He is very talented but I am not sure why City want him when they have a similar player in Nasri and he doesn't play at all. It's probably more of a case of buying a footballer because he's apparently good than because he's needed, something they seem to do quite a lot to be honest.
Hazard and M'vila have the same agent uhm, that guy is gonna make a tidy profit over the next year or so.
Typical Madrid media making things up, the guy mentioned above is not even Hazard's agent.
He includes Chelsea but not us. We are the English champions and tied top of the table ffs!
Looks like we have a new contender to the Caughtoffside crown. sportsvibe.com
Too expensive and too much of a risk for us to buy, a great shame.
Alas if it only were true.
reminds me what Ronaldo used to do in a red shirt...
Eden Hazard £25m Chelsea target but European giants also interested | Mail Online
No quotes from either club, the player or or his agent so it must be all true.

There is no way Hazard will move to Chelsea. If they even think of making an offer, Madrid will finish signing him the next day.
Hazard would be just
Capable to play on the right, left, just behind the striker. I watched him v CSKA in the Champions' League and, boy, did he stand out. Everytime he touched the ball, you just knew that he was going to create, that something was bound to happen.

feck it, I'll settle for Di Maria, then.
Yeah like he is going to move from Madrid to Chelsea. His career is starting to go brightly and he is settling well in Madrid. What makes you think he is going to move to anywhere in general let alone Chelsea?
I really hope he comes to the premier league. I think their is a good chance he will end u at Chelski. Wish it was United...
There are rumors that Di Maria's unhappy about his wages at Real and something about "broken promises" from Madrid hierarchy.
Plus, as you said, if they go for Hazard, there's only so many players they can keep.
Kaka will be the first to leave. Sahin will follow suit. Di Maria has been brilliant for them this season. People will not just sell top players because he knows he has to keep Mourinho happy and I am positive the latter would not to sell Di Maria either. So this thing will be sorted out soon.
