Another day, another Eden Hazard soundbite.
The Belgian midfielder took to Twitter this morning to state that he had finally made up his decision in regards to which English club he would be joining, but is he really sure?
Hazard has flirted with almost every big team in Europe (and some small ones *cough* Liverpool *cough*) but thankfully @FootballFunnys have been on hand to capture every flirtation.
Eden you little tease you, all this time I thought you only had eyes for us!

If he does chose us (which I’m skeptical about), I wouldn’t be able to pretend I wasn’t excited given his talent. However, all this ego stroking concerns me about his character and whether he would stay long-term or simply leave if he was thrown more money or if a particular season didn’t go so well.

Can you imagine? 10 days ago I’m 100% sure Chelsea weren’t even on his radar!
Agree with Jonathan, was slightly excited but his conduct since January has been peculiar. From that video for Nike to his courting of all of these different teams, but not our problem now I guess

can’t hide my disappointment. will be a star for them in a team with mata ramires and torres. hope fergie can bring in a few quality names too. hazard seems to have that self confidence/arrogance that ronaldo had. Sad thing is I think we need a player like that.

I’m not going to lie, I am really disappointed he is joining Chelsea. Hazard was our attempt to make a big statement in the transfer market and we failed. He choose to reject us and that’s a worrying sign. I mean Chelsea won the CL, but they finished 6th and have no proper manager. They still managed to convince him to go there.
It seems we are not attracting the top young players abroad anymore. Alexis Sanchez last summer choose Barcelona and didn’t want Man Utd either. Nasri obviously didn’t see Man Utd as enough of an attraction to reject the big money offer from Man City.
It’s been a long time since the Man Utd fans got excited about a signing and I sense this summer won’t be any different. We might get someone but I doubt they will excite us like when we signed Rooney. The fact is when we go head to head with other top teams in the world we never get the player. We only win the race for English players, but not for top foreign stars now.

@Nigel I feel your disappointment mate, it is frustrating. Hazard would have been a good signing for us and someone we would have been excited about watching as well. I agree that we haven’t had a signing that got us out of seats with excitement.
Its been a while but we did get them in the past. I mean Ronaldo and Rooney did join us. We also got players like Van Nistelrooy and Veron in the past. I agree that it doesn’t happen these days because we seem to get beaten easily when it comes to wages. I hope it’s the wages and not that players don’t want to join us any more.

There’s a lot of frustrating and disappointment over Hazard choice to join Chelsea. It’s annoying but we have to hope Ferguson will still make strong signings for us. We can still make signings that can excite the fans, but we have to realise that we cannot compete with the money of Chelsea or Man City and the wages they offer.
I would be happy is Shinji Kagawa arrives and hopefully now we will try and sign James Rodriguez from FC Porto. Rodriguez is a special talent like Hazard, but is just a bit younger and less known. He has already played in Portugal, Argentina and Colombia and he’s only 21. He would fit in at Man Utd perfectly and is someone we should be trying to sign now. I’ve heard rumours of a bid of 20 million euro plus Anderson being rejected. Hopefully its a start and a deal can be agreed.
I saw Crewe yesterday and Nick Powell scored a special goal and underlined his potential. I’m not saying he will excite the fans like Hazard, but he would be a good signing and he is only 18 years old and English.

Not exactly disappointed and to those who doubt it, in terms of CL pedigree and recent successes Dortmund are a much bigger club than Lille and with any luck we’ll be getting one of their best players relatively cheaply. I’d be perfectly happy if Kagawa were our ‘marquee’ signing, especially Kagawa’s stats stand up well against Hazard’s.
I’ve commented before that I can’t see how we’d fit three number 10s in Kagawa, Hazard and Rooney in the same team since you’d still need to find a solution in midfield. Get Kagawa and a J.Martinez/Axel Witsel type player and I’ll be a reasonably happy bunny.

yes according to all roomers that speculate about Hazard,he might join the blues,but let him look at what Fernando sager was at Chelsae,they bought him at a high cost,they have been accusing him a lot.to the extent that they even wanted to sell him!!!their coaches are changing on daily basis,so my advise is this to Hazard:consider every thing not just because they worn champions L,MR,Alex F can transform you the way you don’t expect,the club with its name is enough to make you a star.we have a lot of talented younger players whom you will glow with in next like ten years,please Hazard be careful about this issue.all the best.look forward to see you in the attacking position with MR,Waza.

The guys a prick simple as, there’s no way the Manager would of been impressed by his antics and media driven attitude. He will fit right in at Chelsea with the rest of the big ego’s they already have. What’s funny is that for all his supposed football driven reasons his going to a club that doesn’t even have an official manager as of yet so? I’m not saying he’s overhyped but I’m not sure he’s this potential world star that he’s made out to be either. He scored 20 goals this season 10 were penalties and a couple of games he scored 2 or more so is it really that impressive considering the league’s not one of the best? I’ve seen him playing for Belgium a few times and he hasn’t really impressed. He could turn out to be fantastic but equally struggle to adapt to a stronger league so I guess we’ll see.
