All of a sudden he's a Ballon Christian D'ior winner...WTF. Have I missed something. We all know he has the potential, but Christ, he's been on holiday for the past 18 months hasn't he. Best player in the league, and possibly Europe...my arse.


AND it’s was against the Dippers.......therefore it had to be a great goal

Have to agree a very nice goal but not sure why it’s being hyped up so much.
It’s not as though ther were 21 passes during the build up like some other team scored the other night ;)))


It was an amazing solo goal. But the truth is that Hazards numbers don't compare to the best in our league let alone Europe or the world. The hype is unreal. Popularity is the biggest factor.

I probably would get salughtered for this, I would rather have Sane over Hazard providing he becomes more consistent

Not sure if you were meaning to be ironic mentioning Hazard and consistency in the same sentence?

He went missing a fair bit the season before that or was it the one before that

Are we talking about Eden Hazard? Quality player who I’d have at City in a heartbeat.

+1.

Hazard is 27 and you cannot rely on him. He will down tools if the stars are not aligned to suit him. Done this twice with Chelsea so far.
Sane is 22 and has huge potential. He can be as good as he wants to be. But it appears he also has an attitude issue.

Hazard is to old to change his way now. Sane is young enough to mature. If he does and goes for it he will be better than Hazard.

I think Sanes attitude is more a 'laid back' unintentional one, just part and parcel of his DNA according to reportsf rom Germany.....he certainly doesnt fuckign sulk thats for sure.
When he gets a bollocking from managers for poor displays at least he just goes out the very next game and does better.

I wouldn't swap him for Hazard either.

Take that.

Does a home draw mean we get to play at the Etihad? Been so long I’ve forgot... :lol: :lol:

Arsenal are always given easy rides in the cups. Weird.
