Neymar z better dan Hazard

i said, explain how and why you think so even with the evidence i gave u that says otherwise.

It is not the number of goals a player has that determines his performances and ratings. Whoscored.com provides us with the statistics, performances and ratings of both players and their teams.

For those saying that Neymar, james, Alexis sanchez and bale are all better than hazard, can you please explain why hazard has a better perf. and rating. Why is he also in the europe best eleven by the ratings? Note: the rating is an average perf. So the number of matches played does not determine anything.

This keshi and Nff thing don tire me self. Haba

Baddestguyp:
our team is complete, perhaps Sanchez returning to barca would be a good idea

you no want sanchez again? No b the guy una bn dy call best player 4 epl?

Burnley attacker Ashley Barnes will not face any further action for his tackle on Nemanja Matic in Saturday's Premier League clash with Chelsea.
The 25-year-old's challenge, described as "criminal" by Jose Mourinho, provoked a heated reaction from the Serbian midfielder, who was sent off, but the Football Association has confirmed that, as the referee saw the incident, no further action will be taken.
The FA tweeted: "In the vast majority of challenges for the ball, no retrospective action is taken as the incident has been seen by the match officials.
"Retrospective action introduced as deterrent for ‘off the ball incidents’ [e.g. kicks, stamps etc.] committed out of sight of officials.
"Whole game in agreement that, in vast majority of cases, match officials are best-placed to deal with incidents to avoid re-refereeing.
"In line with this rationale, FA confirm no further action in relation to Ashley Barnes as incident was seen by the officials."
Matic, however, has been handed a three-match ban after shoving Barnes to the ground, meaning he will miss next week's League Cup final clash with Tottenham, as well as games against West Ham and Southampton.

ClintonNzedimma:
yes hazard is not an average player but neymar is better statistically.
Neymar is so much fun to watch to me than Hazard, hazard's unnecessary dribbles are just annoying, if he creates so many chances like u claim sometimes, why does Fabregas have more assists than him?

neymar is beta dn hazard statistically, u say. Dnt forget that statistics dnt reveal everything. So, frm ur statistical point, lampard is beta dn iniesta. Hope u agree wt dat?

searching4love:
Stop hiding under the phrase "IT'S YOUR OPINION ". statistics and achievements matters in football. If i come out to tell you Emenike is better than Diego Costa, will u say it's my opinion Won't you start explaining how many costa has scored and other facts you think you can raise? Hazard can't stand neymar. Apart from his dribbles that you guys are obsessed with, What other thing can he do better than neymar? Mind you neymar is a crazy and matured dribbler too

neymar has only goal over hazard. Number of Passes and pass accuracy, hazard is beta, dribbling, retaining possession, defence, work rate, chances created, overall assist, mention it. Hazard is beta. U cn counter what i said wt facts if u have them.

Neymar is so much fun to watch to me than Hazard, hazard's unnecessary dribbles are just annoying, if he creates so many chances like u claim sometimes, why does Fabregas have more assists than him?

like i said, that is your own opinion. Chelsea has scored 14 goals from set pieces dis season, and fab is the one that normally takes the set pieces. Hazard has created more chance in open play than fabregas. You see the reason y fab has the most assist?

Debroslink:
You have no business talking football.

We are talking about player's impact in a game, you are talking about number of fouls he received.
Where was Hazard when Chelsea needed the important away goal against PSG? it was the combined efforts of defenders like Cahill and Ivanovic that created that beautiful goal. U came here and talking trash that Hazard was fouled 7 times. Na foul dey win matches?

Hazard is just like Denilson of Brazil. He keeps dribbling and dribbling, while Ronaldo de Lima keeps scoring and Rivaldo keeps assisting. If he keeps dribbling and looking for fouls, he will never smell ballon d or, just like Denilson.

Fabregas keeps assisting, while Costa keeps scoring. These two players supply the goods for Chelsea, and when they fail to deliver, Hazard is no where to be seen. It's players like Ivanovic who delivers Chelsea from such dilemma.

So, keep counting the fouls for Hazard, while we keep counting the goals and assists of Neymar.

24 goals and 17 assists(and counting) from a player who has not spent up to 2 years in Europe is a fantastic return.


Neymar is better than Hazard. Case closed.

i was addressing d guy that said hazard cnt withstand d fouls messi nd neymar get. I wanted to tel him dat hazard has more of those fouls. And for hazards contribution in chelsea, you wl never understand it cus u dnt watch chelsea matches. As for neymar being beta dn hazard, that is your own opinion. I may nt agree wt dat, Though it is nt d subject matter. Cn u pls shw me a source link where you saw neymar's 17 assists dis season.

I wl nt b happy if he wins it just because he is a barca player or in spain nd nt 4 his performance, bt it cnt make me hate football.

searching4love:
Neymar is better than hazard. I don't regret saying it.

saying that neymar is beta dn hazard is your own opinion, as some ppl we say messi is beta than ronaldo, as others wl say ronaldo is beta. Dis is d same 4 neymar nd hazard. This arguments wl neva end. Bt, to say dat hazard is an average player, is nt only baseless nd crap, bt un-football, especially when it is coming 4rm sum1 who calls himself a footbal. That shws u dnt appreciate footbal as an entertainment it is.

You're talking crap. So i have to fly to Zurich to meet fifa or fifa website before i know neymars statistics So sites like Wikipedia and goal are liars abi You're asking who he gave the assist? He gave it to barca fans watching from their seats na . U better stop been ignorant and start stating facts. Look up neymars stats this season and compare it with your overrated hazard.

Which one is the most fouled player again? Does the number of fouls win matches Is there a trophy for the teams with the highest number of fouls? Smh for u Chelsea fans. People are talking with goals and assists you're talking most fouled.

i dnt like to argue football wt ppl who are sentimetal, cus whateva u tel them, they wl neva understand, even when d argument is logical nd objective. Even wt facts, they wnt believe.

Definitely

I cnt bt agree wt hm. There is a conspiracy. That hand ball own make me mad. The referee was looking straight there when it happened, bt he did ntin.

I watched with awe yesterday as chelsea struggled to defend a 1 goal lead against an out of form psg side. Their star man eden hazard was no where to be found for almost 90 minutes. He struggled to make impact neither did he complete a successful cross into the opponents area. I once read a post one here about comparisons between neymar and hazard and with all due respect i can conclude that neymar is miles ahead of hazard in terms of creativity, impact play and goal scoring. Neymar has never been anonymous for Barcelona ever since he signed and statistics this season show hazard isn't in his class. To me, hazard is just an average player who takes advantage of weak oppositions in EPL to shine

U dnt knw football, if this is hw u judge. U re too sentimental to b a footbal fan.

One thing i dnt like with fans of these days is that, they are nt footbal fans, bt club fans. I have seen what some of the "club fans" have commented. You wl b a well respected footbal analyst if u do it without sentiments. What i wl tel u (OP) is this, if you want to knw whether hazard is an average player or nt, go and ask Fifa. They have the answer. And stop that ur nonsense statistical figure of neymar having 17 assists. Go and get ur figure right. I wonder who he gave this assists. If you check very wel, suarez may have more assists than neymar. And for ur info, hazard is the most fouled player in both the epl and champions league. He is 7 more than the next person (neymar) in ucl. Dnt say what u dnt knw.

Whether the bad belle show face or not, the fact remains the same..! Nah Chelsea get both Champions League and EPL this season

EPL own na sure, bt i no folo u talk Ucl own o.

Manchester Citymidfielder Samir Nasridoes not think Chelseaare a special team and is backing Jose Mourinho'sside to slip up in the Premier League title race.
The Blues' last-gasp victory over Everton on Wednesday maintained their seven-point lead over City as Manuel Pellegrini's side returned to winning ways against Stoke City.
Nasri was among the scorers at the Britannia Stadium as the champions secured their first three points since New Year's Day, with Sergio Aguero also netting his first goals since the beginning of December.
And the former Arsenal midfielder is confident they will close the gap at the top, insisting they have shown themselves to be better than the current league leaders.
"I'm a big fan of Mourinho but I am not impressed with his team, not at all," he told reporters. "We have played them twice, one time with 10 men, and we were better than them. Then we played them at the Bridge, and we were better than them.
"When I have seen some of their games, I don't think they are that fantastic – they are just strong and have a good striker up front.
"For me they are not special at all, and I think they are going to make some mistakes. We just have to perform, to win our games, and see what's going to happen. This title will be like this until the end of the season. No one will win the league 10 games before the end of the season.
"Two months ago we were eight points behind Chelsea and came back and went level with them. Now we are seven points behind but are not going to make big talk about it. We will just try to get as many points as possible and wait for the mistake.
"They won in the last minute against Everton, so maybe next time they will draw. We just have to win our games and see what will happen. The season is still long, they have the Champions League and the final of the League Cup as well, so have a lot of games to play.
"If we reach 90 points we will be champions of England. If we win all of our games, it will put pressure on Chelsea. Sometimes we lack consistency but we are improving and next week we will have Yaya [Toure] and [Wilfried] Bony back and are really confident about the future."

This a great news for a Club that is Destined To be both Champions of England and Europe this season, and in him Hazard we see a new Ballon D Or Winner and contender.
Kudos Chelsea!

nor mind that kid....hazard is left midfielder(LMF) in 4-2-3-1 formation while neymar is left wing forward(LWF) in 4-3-3 formation...different tactics and role set by the coach.

they wont undastd wat u just explained. All the knw is just to go to a viewing centre nd watch football and watch results, without knwin wat really happened in the game. Some ppl dy watch back of t.v. Dem no sabi play, dm no sabi watch, talk more of analyzing. They watch a match and see a player score and they conclude he played very wel. They open soccer sites, luk 4 chelsea match, they check if hazard scored, if he did nt, they say he does nt knw hw to play. Sum1 cn hv a bad performance and yet b on d score sheet, while anoda wl hv a wonderful game and yet wl nt appear in d score sheet. Nawa 4 dis kind fans o.

homesteady:
do you also have comprehension problems?
You said Neymar is barca main scorer. ............ and I asked how! Because 1) we have a top 9- Suarez who is meant to be our top scorer ...... 2)Messi is our highest goal scorer!
So what criteria did you use to crown Neymar as barca main scorer?

formation and pattern of play. Understood! Seems u dnt knw way ur club has bn playing dis season.

homesteady:
they advised me not to argue with you! You don't even know what creativity means! Sigh!

for the created chances, here are stats, do the matchs and see who has more this season!

with this, u just told me that u dn read football news.

homesteady:
as I said earlier, you are just blabbing!
How is Neymar barca main goal scorer?

We have a top 9 - Suarez and Messi has scored more than Neymar! So how is he barca main scorer?

so, frm wat u are saying, hazard was chelsea's main goal scorer last season?

Jerryojozy:
50% of hazard goals came from the spot kick. Neymar is better.

i no just knw wetin i go tel u.
