Unless you want Fabregas to foul KDB, i'm not even sure what you're expecting from him there.

Silva creates a bit of space by dragging Rudiger away with his run, and KDB bangs in a low percentage shot that 9 times out of 10 flies over the bar or straight at the keeper.

You can salute a brilliant goal without having to find a scape goat for it.
How about simply covering the space before KDB gets the run on him. And since you have failed to do that, foul him.

Fabregas on his heels at the start of that move, providing escort services there.

scoring approximately 2 goals in each of them. grin dude was carried like this.
Lars Ricken and Mario Gotze style.

The only MOTM he deserved was for being at the right place at right time in WC final to make his first attacking contribution of the tournament after Xavi had seen them through the difficult matches against Germany and Portugal with the single assist in each.

All other MOTM were frauds especially the Euro 2012 final where he didn't contribute any goal or assist in the 4-0 win while Xavi made 2. Infact he contributed no goal or assist that whole tournament and still managed to parapo the POTT. I actually thought that was the first tournament where someone other than XAVI had a good shout at winning, and that was Xabi Alonso.

He should thank God for being mollycuddled by productive players his whole career. He is a Eunuch that couldn't lift Stoke City above 10th place with his contributions if he was their AM.

Shebi when he was playing in community defence Juventus. People were swearing with his name.
He's good enough but I never believed any defender is a Superman. I rather believe that no defender can solidify a team when the midfield is poorly functioning, and any decent defender can be used to win titles so long as the midfield dey kampke. I was surprised the way Airmark was pushing for his signing at age 30 despite the near £50m being quoted. I always believe the right midfield will cure most defensive woes and there's no need to spend outrageous sums on centrebacks.

Good thing you've researched and posted it yourself. He hasn't been soooo soooo better than Hazard for the NT sef, so what are we talking about.
You were the one who came here with confidence to ask what has KDB done for Belgium, not me.

Belgian team record:

KDB - 13 goals + 24 assists in 56 games = 37 goal contribution = 0.66 per game

Hazard - 20 goals + 22 assists in 81 games = 42 goal contribution = 0.52 per game

Why should you limit their contribution for NT to the last 6 months? Did they start playing for the NT in 6 months?

I can see you've clearly Ignored the part where Hazard was preferred to him in Chelsea, he was so good, he was always loaned out till he got sold while Hazard registered himself as the best player for the team.

Just because KDB is better at passing is the same way Hazard is heads over heels better than him in dribbling.

Their style of play is different. I'll take Hazard over him anytime, anyday. Compare him and Fabregas, not Hazard.

EOD
Read and understand. I said 6 months ago, KDB stats were higher. I have not followed Belgian NT for the last 6 months so I don't know if Hazard has overtaken him since then, however I'm surprised you assume this to be the case without even checking.

grin grin grin

Airmark want start fight with that GIF na him make I ignore am. He fabricated a claim that no one made and went on to disprove the claim himself. grin.

I like the way Raumdeuter answered him that we can also find gifs of Fellaini dribbling doesn't make Fellaini a dribbler so I left am there.

If you like that gif of Hazard making those first time passes, that means you should be demanding more of that from him.

You can never and should never try to underestimate Hazard's influence in that Chelsea squad since he joined us. Chelsea squad is not the same as that City's squad.


At no point has our squad been better than city's yet we've won more trophies of which Hazard has been very very important and influential for us.

The Hazard I know has vision and is very wise, you didn't teach him to give that sweet pass to Morata when he did. Last season, most of the passes he gave Costa were wasted. Costa myt not have scored the one Morata buried.

Let's not forget the fact that he's even coming back from a serious injury and the team isn't in top shape yet, how many matches has he even played for us but no, let's bring him down and hail KDB who has Aguero, Silva, Sane, Jesus, Sterling all firing at the moment.

Can you say the same about our own squad?

I don't know about their joint goals/assists for their NT, they both play for Belgium, Hazard is the captain, did better at the last Euros, do well to show us their stats for the NT.
This debate should be about whether Hazards dribbling is more effective than KDBs first time passing, not whether Hazard can compete with KDB in first-time passing. He can't. The only player with anything close to KDBs vision in the current era is Fabregas.

Do you know I sometimes watch Hazard 90 mins match and won't see a single cross? Sometimes it makes me wonder if he is a winger.

Last time I checked their Belgium goals + assists record 6 months ago or so, KDB was slightly ahead in less matches. I don't know what transpired in the last 6 months but I'm surprised that you are confidently claiming Hazards record is better without checking. Yes, Hazard had a better Euros but World Cup was a different story.

Chelseafan1:
Ibime, you should be wiser than this na.

KDB has Aguero, Jesus, Sane, Silva, Sterling to give one time passes to.

Hazard has Willian, Batshuayi, Bakayoko, who else in that front line abeg?
Please don't make this about one-time passes. Your best ground to stand on is that dribbling is better than first-time passing. Fabregas has been giving one-time passes to Costa the past 3 years, where was Hazard?


Chelseafan1:
What has your great KDB done in the Belgium NT?
Do you care to add their goals and assists for Belgium and tell us?

Biggest choker is when you are called the king of assists, and you can't provide a single assist in 5 major European finals.

Biggest choker is when you are non-existent in a major final and had to rely on a defender to win you the Europa.

Biggest choker is when you outscore your striker, yet that striker is fondly remembered for his exploits in the final, while you are just a carryalong

Biggest choker is when you are watching your god on TV while he's busy helping his team win the Euros '08 because you couldn't help your nation qualify.

Lampard is the biggest game choker.
My friend sharrap.

If Lampard got to a final, rest assured he carried Malouda, Joe Cole and co there.

If Iniesta got to a final, he was carried there.

Imagine what genuine productive players would do for Barca in finals with all the space afforded them by fear of Messi and dominance of Xavi, don't ever compare to a Eunuch. Lampard would have scored so many, it wont be funny. You are talking of a nigga with 10 UCL quarter-final to final goals, 5 semi-final to final goals, not to mention numerous assists at that later stage playing with Malouda and co. If your bïtch áss Eunuch was flanked by Malouda and Joe Cole for most of his career, he won't even make it out of group stage. Don't ever compare a killer with 300 goals and 200 assists vs a Eunuch that gets outscored by John Terry and 3 goalkeepers.

Even when Lampard got to UCL final, he scored. All his finals except the first one were from the age of 32 and over playing as a DM, yet he was even creating goals against Barca in 2012 UCL at that age. Meanwhile when Iniesta got to 30 years old, he was being compared to a tree.

Efficiency is when those 60 passes give the team the biggest wins and trophies, while the player wins MOTM.

Something Lampard can never lay claim to, despite 5 appearances in European final matches.
Carryalong is being trashed all over by Veratti and have Neymar bail you out from 4 goals down. Carryalong is being given fake MOTM awards where all your teammates are scoring and assisting 4 goals and you didn't even collect one. Cheating is when you make no assist or goal in a tournament where Xavi has made most assists in knockout stage including 2 in the final, and some fugazi give you award over Xavi.

But Lampard also scored more goals than Xavi as well. So stats wise he is also better. Lwkmd
Xavi never claimed to be an AM.

He was the one controlling midfield with his 100 passes per game whilst Iniesta was claiming to control it with him making only 60 passes, sometimes 50.

Iniesta is so unlucky to live in an era of Messi and Ronaldo. Dude should have won balon d or by now.
Iniesta is lucky to live in an era of Xavi where he can hide under the guise of making passes when Xavi is the one making 100 passes and Iniesta is barely making 60 passes. Lucky to live in an era of Xavi where Xavi provides 50% of all goals and assists to see Spain through knockout stages of tournaments, carrying him along to the final. Lucky to live in the era of Messi where he doesn't have to score or assist like his mates do to be successful because Messi does it all.

Zidane... 38 assists in 6 seasons is greater than Lampard stats wise?

Stop this hypocrisy
Last 6 seasons of his career.

We have compared Zidane to all AMs of his era and struggled to name 10 with better stats, unlike Iniesta where we were naming Leon Osmans and Kevin Nolans.

I see Silva and KDB making goals and assists in Pep 4-3-3, not making excuses that their job is only to recycle possession in that system like you did for Eunuch. Put KDB in Iniestas place in Peps Barca team, who will even know that Iniesta is missing.

Please focus on the debate at hand. There is a debate going on comparing two PRODUCTIVE players - KDB and Hazard. Stop bringing EUNUCHS into such debate. Just focus on the matter at hand. Out.

I dey ask you. Lampard vs Zidane stats wise, who's the daddy?
Zidane statswise was top 10 CM of his era.

Iniesta statswise is not top 200 of his era. Different goalkeepers and defenders sef outscore him.

We cannot compare fat Ronaldo era to Cristiano Ronaldo or Lewandowski era. Zidane stands kampke in his era statswise. Stop bringing Zidane into it to cover Eunuch that gets outscored by defenders in his era.

If Iniesta is known for dribbling vision and movement. Can we say Hazard is moulding into Iniesta while KDB is moulding into Lamps?
Hazard is not morphing into any Iniesta. Hazard has not been outscored by John Terry and 3 seperate goalkeepers unlike Iniesta.

Keep Eunuch Iniesta out of talks when discussing productive footballers please.

dopeJemi:
yesterday was the first time I really watched Bakayoko play and I must confess that guy is a passenger in the middle, he's not midfield material at all, lai lai.. he doesn't even look like one


Y'all need to shop for a serious and better midfielder next summer, good thing you have Drinkwater
Monaco did us one-chance. There is a reason they said they are only making Bernardo Silva and Bakayoko available for transfer last summer. Silvas issue was contractual because he had 2 years left with no intent on resigning. . . . .and Bakayoko because they saw the chance to hammer on a crap player.

We just keep falling our hand. If I'm a progressive midfielder that wants to sign for a club where I can play sweetly with other midfielders who understand football, will I sign for Chelsea to be playing in midfield with wastepipes like Bakayoko and Ramires? There is a reason quality midfielders tend to choose the likes of Bayern over us (eg Tolisso) because they know when they land, there is a synergy with their fellow midfielders.

That because that is his major Strength. Vision and delivery. Hazard Strength is to take on defenders creating space for team mates to come in to score or score himself, his distribution nevertheless is still good, two or three times in the last game he made two or three good crosses to the other wing for moses.
In my interpretation of football, vision and delivery trumps dribbling everytime. Debruyne can also dribble but only enough to create space for a harmful pass or cross. That is better than dribbling 3 players while defence regroup. Go and see how Hazard crossed for Morata against ATM instead of dribbling which he would do 9 times out of 10. The whole purpose of football is to get the ball to where it needs to be to create a chance. Debruyne knows that ball travels faster than man, Hazard doesn't.

Lampard? This guys are are out and out midfielders. If you were expecting Hazard to drop in to the midfield and start throwing defence splitting passes to Michy 'no presence' Batshuayi then am sorry. l know Hazard didn't play well in our last two league games and there is almost no excuse except perhaps injury after effects but let be true with ourself.

P. S I am not debating who is better between Hazard and De Bruyne just pointing out their different style of play.
Go and watch Debruyne playing from the wing. Same thing. First time delivery and It's a goal.
