OFFICIAL FOOTY THREAD ⚽️: Rodri wins 2024 Ballon d’Or

[Verde Shuttles]

Just randomly thought about my guy who thought Dembele played a Barcelona match right in the middle of the summer. That and "I only read books written by Englishmen" might be the hardest I ever laughed in this thread.

Comparing Grealish to Hazard is insane. Like how?!

 

[jape]

Nah I remember Beans saying he never liked him

The Hazard transfer went as bad as it could go

You play out his transfer another 99x, no way it goes that bad

i’m not debating that at all

Yeah never liked him. Think it was criminal he won individual accolades and someone like Sanchez was constantly overlooked and out performed him.

I say that to say, he was no bum. His game was just not for me. I view him similar to grealish.

yeah see this is harsh and comparing him to grealish is wild to me. who else is in the 15 and 15 club? his peak wasn’t long lived but he was top dog for me.

You guys don’t know ball… pains me, quick google search and I see I’m not the only one that sees it

Jamie Carragher says Eden Hazard is a fair comparison for Jack Grealish after Aston Villa captain's start

Ex-Liverpool and England defender Jamie Carragher on Aston Villa captain Jack Grealish: Another player I do want to compare him to, because of the position he plays, is Eden Hazard. In this left side of a front here, hes got a similar sort of build, powerful legs, backside as well.

Damn even your Chelsea legends see it

Grealish is matching Hazard in his final season at Chelsea

Jack Grealish, like Eden Hazard at Chelsea, is the star man in his team - the source of goals and great entertainer all mixed into one

we dropping Englishmen opinion pieces now as fax. we all know english blokes wildly overrate english blokes
thats why you guys have 80m maguire on your bench

 

[worldbeefreeg]

Pep has neutered his game, but Grealish was special at Villa. It’s popular in here to pretend he is awful but there is a reason Pep trust him and he starts pretty much every game.

kit is actually fire tho

His best contribution since joining us tbh

The only thing they have in common is their ability to take on players.

You made it sound like you were trying to say they’re the same level, which is insane. If you want to say their profile is similar… I guess. But Hazard is levels above Grealish as a player.

They don't want to hear it. But it's the TRUTH. Man is overrated.

No I didn’t. I said they have similar games. You made it about levels because you are emotional about the comparison for some reason


jape they might be English but two of those people played at the highest level and know more about ball than both of us combined.. you lot love to discredit things based on the weirdest stuff. You don’t know ball.. just move on, dragging maguire in for some sneaky dig at United is silly.

 

[Beans]

I couldn’t imagine being a Barca supporter and be in here with your chest poked out talking about overrated players considering how much money you’ve blown on…. overrated players. But I guess you are better cuz you didn’t spend it on English blokes smh

I just looked back at your original post & you’re right. You did say you view their game similarly. So my bad.

I do feel that Hazard was a much better scoring threat, so I still don’t fully agree. But as long as we’re not talking about levels… I’m good.
