🚨 Eden Hazard on why some people rated him above Neymar:
“People always loved comparing me with Neymar two players who enjoyed dribbling, taking risks, and making football fun. I always respected him because his talent was obvious.
But I remember one night at Stamford Bridge that changed how I saw myself.
We were playing a big match, and from the first minute, their defenders had one plan kick me every time I touched the ball. One tackle came late, then another. After about twenty minutes, one defender looked at me and smiled like he had already won the battle.
At halftime, I was angry. My socks were torn, my ankles were sore, and some teammates told me to release the ball quicker.
I looked at them and said, ‘No... now I want the ball even more.’
Second half, every attack came through me. I started driving at the same defender again and again. One dribble, then another, then I created the goal that changed the match.
After the final whistle, that same defender came to me and said, ‘I’ve never chased someone like that for ninety minutes.’
That night, when journalists asked me about Neymar comparisons, I smiled and said:
‘Neymar can make football look beautiful… I wanted to make it feel impossible for defenders.’” ⚽🔥
The reason why Chelsea is not completely broke now is because of the Anti-Glazer clause Roman Abramovich Inserted when selling the club to this current owners.
The consortium is legally barred from paying dividends or taking management fees out of the club until 2032.
10 years Anti-Glazer clause was inserted and the Current owners must invest over £1.7B into the club.
Roman waved a debt of £1B, the club was supposed to pay to him directly. Roman loved Chelsea. The club was family for him not business
🚨🗣️ Luis Enrique on Kylian Mbappé:
“People always ask me about Kylian Mbappé, and I’ll be honest, talent has never been the question. He’s one of the most gifted players I’ve seen. But football is not just about talent, it’s about mentality, respect, and understanding what a team really is.
People confuse talent with authority. Yes, he’s talented, nobody denies that. But football punishes arrogance. If you don’t respect your teammates, if you don’t fight with them, eventually it shows on the pitch.
What I experienced with him wasn’t leadership, it was control. There’s a very thin line between being the main player and trying to become the system itself. And when one player starts dictating everything, how the team plays, how others move, even the atmosphere in the dressing room, that’s not leadership anymore. That’s close to a dictatorship.
At some point, you have to ask: does he make teams better, or does he just make himself bigger? Because for me, a real leader sacrifices — he doesn’t demand.
And until that changes, no matter how many goals he scores, there will always be a limit to what his teams can achieve.”
It was a training shootout between the juniors and seniors players and whoever scored first got to send an opponent back to the room. Didier Drogba stepped up first, scored and send out Sturridge & Lukaku 😂Daniel and Rom were almost in tears 😭😭
Eden Hazard on beating Arsenal in the European League final in Baku:
🗣️ "Sarri, the day before the match, was very tense. It was his first European final, against Arsenal. It's not easy. At the end of the match, when we won the trophy, I saw him looking deeply at the medal. And all of a sudden, I was much happier for him than for me…also because I already had a medal! It was a great night."

So what do you mean by suffering?? Arsenal fans are killing me 😭😂
Sorry but Mahrez hasn’t carried Leicester to a PL, won five PL titles, carried Algeria to an Africa Cup title, won the treble and scored 150 goals just to be compared to “Madueke”
Hazard had 139 G/A in 19,396 premier league minutes. That’s equivalent to maintaining 25 G/A per 38 game season on average across a full decade.
25 would match Saka’s peak G/A season for Arsenal. 👍
