Maybe when we concede the 2-0 Low will bring in Sane

Lana1:
Idiot. E go dey score golazo for Belgium come dey miss sitters for United!!

pkasso:
I don't understand the point you are trying to make. This was never a debate of who the better player was between Isco and Hazard. I only said they were on the same talent level.

pkasso:
I said Zidane wasn't as big a fan of Isco's talents as Lopetegui. So Zidane disliked him enough to start him in 2 different CL finals, benching 2 of Madrid's most expensive signings (James and Bale) in the process?

Not Real Madrid. Maybe you think say every club na Chelsea. Zidane was in favour with Perez and would have gotten any player he asked for. Hensben even said the reason Real did not go for Hazard was because they already had Ororo and Bale.

Hello?? They had Ororo and Bale and were still actively chasing Neymar. It's no secret that when CR7 left, Neymar was the first choice to replace him. Mbappe was the second choice. It was when it was obvious that PSG were not willing to do business for either player, that Hazard came into the picture. A frantic last-minute choice.

Instead of Real chasing Hazard, it's been the other way round. Hazard and his dad have been giving Real that come-get-me look for over 2 seasons now. Hazard is that babe you don't fancy but who continues to wink and flirt in the hope that you notice her.

Hazard na ashewo, he no get shame

Skimpledawg:
Airmark on the beats


That one has biblical skills in turning amala

Welcome back sir!
How was the honeymoon sir?

pkasso:
You still haven't told me why Zizou didn't splash out the cash on Hazard. Talk is cheap. Why did Real under Zidane fail to make a single bid for Hazard all these years?

Eruditor:
His scoring form is not better. Fabregas' is not worse either using a justified term of reference.

Eruditor:
[s]Don't be obtuse. You mentioned sub-standard UCL matches what does that have to do with scoring form?

obtusemark, I am the one to teach you that 8/10 is statistically better than 10/15. You once argued here that 2 UCLs in 3 years was = 2 in 22 years.

eff off[/s].

Eruditor:
The difference between your opinion and ice cream is that I care about ice cream.

Eruditor:
So why did he not make his assessment with Fabregas' first 10 games? To skew the point he was trying to make. And if you dare bring up sub-standard matches, common sense will laugh you out of the building. Cardiff fresh of Championship compared to a champion's league team? A player who was not the designated penalty taker? A midfielder? With his 7 assists to boot.

pkasso:
Why did Zidane not buy Hazard or even table an official bid all these years? He should have sold Isco and bought Hazard since he's so much of an upgrade on Isco. Everything na just talk. Which is cheap, by the way.

Abeg, can you tell me the number of matches Real has won since Isco got injured? Please feel free to tell me the number of goals they've scored since then. Don't worry, lemme help you. Zero!! 0 wins, 0 goals in 4 straight games without Isco. The last time Isco played was the last time they scored and won. That is to show how influential he is in this current Madrid side.

Eruditor:
I am not changing the narrative. I said Hazard is not enjoying a better scoring form than Fabregas did (Aug-Oct) 2007/08 and you were trying to be exacting by telling me one was 8/10 and the other 10/15. I emulated you and added another factor.

if Hazard goes 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 and Fab went 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 hope you know their scoring forms are pretty much the same?

Eruditor:
Fabregas has more assists and goals. Xavi did not but the burden of providing those rested more with one than another. One could argue that had Xavi added those to his game, he would have been the best player in his time at least once.

You cannot deny that the burden of providing those for CFC and Belgium rest on Eden. You know this, but want to excuse him of it and bring Zidane and Xavi who were exceptional at what was expected of them - never mind the extra they could not do CONSISTENTLY.

That is why it is criminally insulting to claim Hazard is on Messi's level barring goals and assists. While one has been top of every class in what was demanded of him and more, the other has been a potential since God knows when. We cannot compare Messi to a player who went 30 matches or so without a goal regardless of coach or playing style.

To make an argument for Hazard his numbers should be 25+ every season in a "defensive side" so that we can say in a more expansive side maybe he can get to 40. There is nothing we have seen that suggests he can except hype.

He is not enjoying a better scoring form than Fabregas did in 2007/08 particularly in the same Aug-October months. You people should just relax. He is a very good player but that is where it stops. No matter the periodic table you are looking at, he is not in Messi's group, period.

pkasso:
Is there any standout best player at Real Madrid currently? Even the supposed best player in the world Modric is on the same level as Kroos, Marcelo and Ramos.

Under Lopetegui's Spain, Isco was the best player. Why? Because he had a manager who trusted him enough to hand him the freedom and license to do whatever he wanted. It's no news that Zidane wasn't as much a big fan of Isco. The same thing happened to James. And we all saw how James beasted under Heynckes.

Even at that, Isco still did enough for Zidane to pick him, even over Bale at times. He certainly wasn't a passenger when they won the CL last season.

pkasso:
So you expect Isco to be the main man for where Ororo dey? You dey hear yourself?

pkasso:
You no dey OK. I'm still sticking to what I said. Abeg, is Isco the main man at Real as Hazard is at Chelsea?

Ibime:
Afrodoc dey show una say UNA NO KNOW BALL PLAYERS!

nihilistjnr:
so Isco did not follow the Madrid players to win 3 back to back UCLs?

Maybe during that period, the guy added a 'C' to his name, climbed into a server rack, and pretended to be a router for 3 seasons

Unlimited22:
