Eden Hazard

Remember that time Wenger went to France to get Eden Hazard and returned with Gervinho. Good times.

Back then, I thought Hazard was meant to play for Arsenal given our French connection. I reckon I watched his Lille comps daily for a good year. And then Chelsea stole him from us. My precious :(.

If true thats pretty crazy, players seem to give agents so much power and deference, if they aren’t doing what they want then they should get rid of them.

With that said it worked out very well for Hazard and his former agent will be telling him that he was right in the end.

Not mad at FIFA trying to curb thier influence.

At least we can stop blaming Wenger now. Or stop thanking him if you’re @Joshua

Weren’t there people in here that were adamant that we never actually in for him?

I still remember the rumours about Hazard coming here from all the way back to 2007.

Dude looked destined to come here. A massive “what if”.

If he played for us I’d sing a completely different tune. Part of the myopia that comes w being a supporter.

That’s what they’re drinking

Christ, you’re right. :joy:

Family money or was it an undisclosed settlement with Hazard after that brutal assault captured on film?

I think it was from his dad.

Classic. Reminds me of this video being memed that features a young woman talking about how she’ll be a millionaire by 20 and the first step is that she works for her father and draws a salary which she used to buy a building so she can collect rent and other “passive income”. If I can find the clip again I’ll post it because it’s just so infuriating.

The commentator must have been the only person who thought the boy was in the right.

Now he’s grown up, he looks like the type of kid that Hazard should have kicked harder.

Eden sit. 99.99% of world football isn’t in the same Tier as Ronaldo. That includes you.

Nothing to do with popularity.

Haaland and Salah catching strays.

Broski knows his rep is in the gutter after that Madrid stint. Gotta defend that PL legacy.
