Thorgan Hazard

[theblueone]

Anybody know what his future is with the Blues? I've read somewhere that we may be loaning him out next season in the EPL and read contrasting posts that say we may sell.

Hope not. Want to see him blossom at the Bridge and see him play football with Eden. Surely his recent awards should go in his favour...

[londonblue]

Admittedly i've never seen him play but from what i've heard he isn't great and the only reason we signed him was because his older brother will win the ballon'dor next season ;)

[Scott Harris]

I hope we don't sell him. He has done everything that has been asked of him so far. He won the Belgium young player and player of year for 2013 so he must be doing something right.

 

He may not go on to be like Eden Hazard but i think it's worth having him in the squad and give him a chance.

Thorgan > Eden 

 

Here's a good post (not mine): 

 

Thorgan has been absolutely amazing, playing well above the level of the league. He's pretty much wasting time overt here now, he has way more potential than Eden to be honest. When Eden was a kid, everybody **** their pants when they saw him play because he was so good, but then he started progressing very slowly. Thorgan on the other hand, he has been unreal and his skill has EXPLODED over the last two years. A lot of that has to do with his trainer, a dude who took an amateur bunch of scrubs and managed them to the highest level of football (even surviving the winter in Europe the second year after promotion). Very smart man, knows how to make players evolve. Thorgan also possesses much more physical presence as well, the kid has three lungs and heaps of technique. Plays very efficient as well and has a great shot from distance. He has been making shet tier strikers consistently score goals with his smart passing.

A very complete player, a Mourinho prototype player. His style of play comes with the production of numbers on the stat sheet, he can run all game long, he defends and he positions himself almost perfectly when in possession and when losing possession. Great mentality as well, always going for the win but never resorts to dirty diving or letting his jimmies get rustled. He makes shet games fun to watch at times. Waaaaaaay smarter than his brother as well, even though he also went full retard and busted nuts inside of a chick and formed babby at the age of 18-19. He's more a number 10 playmaker/second striker than his brother. Where Eden lacks quick play/quick thinking and vision, his brother excels. He would actually help his brother play better because Thorgan is the type of midfielder who draws player to himself and opens op space for strikers and wingers, often taking advantage of the attack he sets up by doing that himself.

Should honestly be pulled out of this loan deal and get sent to a Bundesliga team. He needs to get tested at a higher level in preparation for the speed of play in Premier League games. Because if he can make the transition he will be twice the player that Oscar is.

He's pretty much doing exactly the same as Kevin De Bruyne did, but he's a little bit quicker, isn't 100% bipedal and his technique is a little bit less polished. So it's good for him that Chelsea is shipping off De Bruyne. Because if Kevin would explode and play at his full potential, Hazard would waste at least a year at Chelsea. He could have a very bright future though, seeing how things are going atm.

He is a flair player a bit like KDB and Mata but his work rate is fantastic.

 

He is not as fast as Eden, but still faster than Oscar

Well you do know that Thorgan was voted as the Belgian Player of the year in 2013? So his play can't be that bad. I saw him play vs Wigan in the UEL & he looked all that & a bag of chips. I know I posted this video before, but still is a joy to watch the skills of this lad.

I have seen a fair amount of footage of him and to be quite frank, I am impressed. I think he could do well if given the chance, I'm against him going on loan or away from the Bridge. I want to see him given the chance in the off season to impress Jose, who has promised to spend time with our reserve players and young prospects during the run up to the world cup.

I hope to see him in blue next season showing us what he can do. Was talking about him with friends whilst watching the match earlier and the overall consensus was the same.

[mediator]

I'm all against tbh. He is too young to rot on the bench à la Kalas and co.

 

He should be loaned again, may be in Portugal

[theblueone]

Maybe so, but with the form he's shown, he deserves a chance at least. Maybe Jose will be able to assess him during the summer.

[Jonty]

No chance he'll be in the squad let alone getting any game time next season, we'll probably give him a loan to France or Germany.

[theblueone]

As long as we don't sell him I guess further loaning couldn't hurt. We need to keep the young players like him, Van Ginkel and Courtois. Ideally, we should be keeping Lukaku too.

If anything I'd rather he take Schurrle's spot and send Schurrle on loan. But that's purely because I believe Salah to be the better player and Schurrle needs regular game time next year.

Well I rather have Hazards on the flanks. That right there sounds menacing.

Nice, hope we bring him back next season I truly believe we don't need to sign anyone except Costa, we can bring back loan players and give youth a shot.

A left back would be nice, I like Bertrand and PVA but they won't be much more than back up I reckon. A partner for Matic is also required.

[The Brit]

Think it's very significant Jose went to watch him and the other guys..ok he has little else to do right now, but if he wasn't interested, he'd have just let a scout report on the game for him

[Scott Harris]

Personally i thought he may have got a chance to go to the world cup, can't believe Januzaj was picked over him. Januzaj decides at the last second he wants to play for Belgium and he then get's picked ???? If i was a Belgian midfielder that missed out because of that i would be pretty pissed to be honest. Januzaj has only picked Belgium because he was desperate to go to the World Cup, his heart isn't truly with the Belgium team.

 

To be honest i would have left out Chadli, that guy has been really sh*te since joining Tottenham, same with Fellaini at United.

Salah is not better than Schurrle

...still a small chance for Thorgan to go to the WC

Chadli & Fellaini play better in the NT than in their clubs, so it may has something to do with the clubs ;-)

Januzaj probably gets 1 minute, just to ensure he'll be a Belgian player for the rest of his life

Is that a tattoo on Jose's left arm? Hadn't noticed that before!! Wonder what it says.

 

Edit: Just done a search online and apparently he got it last year. That completely passed me by. Has his wife and kids names on it which is a nice touch.

Solid, well-constructed argument.
