I guess I'll agree with this. Neymar is certainly more clutch.
In terms of pure footballing ability I still think they're at the same level. Neymar is just a cold blooded assasin when it comes to goal scoring. Hazard is more of a facilitator and it just isn't in his personality to be super aggressive and lethal.
Always say on the Chelsea forum I post on that Hazard should model his approach after Robben. He just needs that mentality where he always goes for the kill rather than passing it off. Large goal tallies are the only thing he's missing.
Also, how can he be the best player in the top overall league in the world and not be elite? He's world class. Any player who's better than Zlatan, Sanchez, De Bruyne, Silva, Aguero, etc has to be elite surely.
theyd have to pay close to what Pogba cost. His Chelsea deal ends in like 2020 dont it? I reckon he will stay 2 more yrs at leastHe's class. Hope Madrid sign him. Chelsea would lose a LOT if he left.

It would cost such a ridiculous sum to pry him away and Real Madrid are already stacked in attacking positions. No need for them to want him.I'd say they'd have to break the record. Don't think Florentino would mind it to be honest. Fwiw I think he'll be away at the end of the season. I think he talked how he would like to leave Chelsea on a high. If they win the league or the double then I'd say it's certain that he'll leave.
I think you're acting willfully naive. If you watched Real play this season then Hazard would definitely walk into their team & improve them.It would cost such a ridiculous sum to pry him away and Real Madrid are already stacked in attacking positions. No need for them to want him.
In whose place? They gonna play without a striker and drop Benzema/Morata?I think you're acting willfully naive. If you watched Real play this season then Hazard would definitely walk into their team & improve them.

They'll move Ronaldo permanently to CF & Hazard will move to LW. Marcelo, Modric & Hazard combining out on that left flank would be devesating.In whose place? They gonna play without a striker and drop Benzema/Morata?
That would be an absolutely terrible deal for us.Wouldn't be surprised if they moved Ronaldo up top and Morata goes the other way if Hazard was to go to Chelsea.
Shit mentality, goes missing quite often. He's nowhere near world class but brilliant on his day. I am honestly glad he never ended up at United.
It was very clear Jose had told your players to be very tight and aggressive with him. Right from the first whistle, they were all over him. Still asking him to take it on a chin? Can't have your cake and eat it mate.The best players get ahead of a defender and run away from them. His falling over is infuriating
I'd advise you to actually go watch some clips. You sound like you don't watch him unless he's playing against United. You won't find many football fans who'd agree with you on this opinion, I'm afraid. Well, non United fans at least. There's a lot of emotions running after this match understandably. Ask as many neutrals as you can since you think I'm biased."He doesn't dive, he invites fouls..." after reading that, rest of his reply lost all the credibility really, so no, it wouldn't satisfy even Hazard himself I'm afraid. Grasping at straws.
Again, great footballer, but a much more talented diver, he is on another level compared to other seasons too.
That would be an absolutely terrible deal for us.
No it's not. He's "world class" on his day, but he's too often not in the mood. World class players perform at the top level more often than the diving Belgian.Well he has shite mentality in spades but to say he's not world class is stupid.
What a ridiculous post. Dybala? What's next? Going to put Aguero and Sanchez in the same category as Lukaku and Douglas Costa?I would put Hazard in the same category as Dybala, very, very good but not quite a Robben
What a ridiculous post. Dybala? What's next? Going to put Aguero and Sanchez in the same category as Lukaku and Douglas Costa?
Also, it's a bit funny to see a lot of "he's nowhere near elite" and "he's nowhere near world class" posts and in the same breath "he'll feck off to Madrid soon" as if Madrid would want to break the world record for a player who's neither elite nor world class.
Also, he isn't leaving for at least another 2 years if at all. Stop the wishful thinking. Hopefully he snags another CL for us between now and then. That'll be a "high" way to leave.
Was devastated when he chose to sign for Chelsea because I sensed he would become a elite top level star.
In hindsight he made the absolute correct choice for himself by avoiding Moyes and LVG.
Well poised to challenge Neymar and Bale in 24 months for BPITW.
I suspect Madrid will break Pogba transfer fee in the summer to snap him up.
Hazard is a good player but he's no C.Ronaldo or Suarez or Bale.
His gutless performances last season mean he's firmly out of that bracket.
Don't even bother, the overrating of Hazard isn't even worth arguing. The way some lot go on about him you'd think he was Maradona reincarnate or something.
He's a fair weather player.
Never be a true great.
He's a great player, when on form the best in the league, but Christ it's like you can't even discuss him without huge overreactions coming out.
Take a look Hazard's legs at the end of the match. And you still get people calling him a "diver", "going to ground too easily".
