Derry Alli Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Hazard retired the minute he signed for Real Madrid. Fair play to him, made his coin and rid 'los blancos' like a donkey at a fayre ground. What a player. What a man. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 Just watching that Paul Merson v Mike Dean debate from Soccer Saturday. I think it is safe to say that Merse had the former whistler on absolute toast. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted October 11, 2023 Share Posted October 11, 2023 (edited) When Hazard was on form, I absolutely loved him, but he was capable of bottoming out unlike many others at his level nowadays. Still glad I got to see him, De Bruyne and Lukaku in full flow once, even if it was pummelling Scotland.

My mum and dad have been to the majority of Scotland home games in the last 20 years, and a few away (they're in Seville for the game tomorrow)they're both 70 and my dad says Hazard and De Bruyne live are like you're watching a different sport and he can't say that about any other players he's seen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I respectfully disagree, wee fanny who boasted he was going to do something before the game knowing that daddys money would always protect him. Hazard should have Hartson'd his head into Row Z. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he? AU is worth about £40m. Or are you taking his father's wealth into it as well? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough, me and the lads in the office have been discussing possible replacements for the increasingly irritating Gary Neville on our once beloved Sky Sports. "I'll tell you what" I said. "Here's one for you." "Paul Merson." I was expecting to have to argue my case, but it went down an absolute treat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 We need to rid our once great screens from gingers, not promote them. Tell Gav it's a terrible shout and he's to buy the next two Madri's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 I don’t want to hear from anyone who doesn't want Keysey back. He's served his time, he knows the league and anyway, it's a fucking disgrace that Sky went all woke and chased him out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look, it might just be nostalgia, but there's a couple of names I want to throw in; Iain Dowie? Proven bouncebackablity. 'Member Tim Lovejoy single handedly getting that into the mainstream? Alternatively - Alan Pardew would absolutely rape it as a presenter, in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoRaj Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Hazard was top 5 in the world at his peak. He won Barclays pler of the year twice running. He couldn't sustain it obviously but the idea that he was some way off the top level is nonsense 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkoRaj Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 League and cup double and French pler of the year at Lille as well at 20 years old Some careers have an earlier peak and tail off quicker. Plenty of examples of that, doesn't detract from how good he was 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
