its ridiculus how many players have dropped out of international games

tho Reina did actually have a arm injury but i think he has it always but just plays with it for Napoli

even captain of Slovakia Hamsik is only on bench for an important game today
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Naples is their only country

Can't wait until we sign Neymar for £200m this summer.

Well you have competition son. I heard uncle Roman has earmarked him as our marque signing in the summer

Yeah good luck with that.

Tbh, I'd rather we keep Hazard, but the Madridas have set their eyes on him

Dunno if they do really. Usually they publicly court their next big superstar signing but that hasn't happened.

Oh they already have. Marca dedicated two front pages to Hazard today

Not the same as loads of people at the club doing it.

True, but that's how it starts

Would take something silly for Chelsea to sell. Not sure Madrid would pay it for Hazard. You'll be pretty facked if they do, though.

I'd like to think they won't. but yeah it'll be hard to replace someine Hazard, Man Utd never replaced Ronaldo properly

*someone like Hazard

Much harder to replace a player like Ronaldo than Hazard, but I take the point.

If he does go it'll be interesting to see whether Conte has a change of shape and goes with two strikers.

I think he likes to use 3-5-2 or 4-2-4, I wouldn't be surprised if he does thus from nexr season, irrespective of whether Hazard stays or leaves

True but I think given Hazard is better wide he's had to go with the formation he's used, I don't see much need for it to be changed given how successful the team is.

Hazard drifts more inside in this system, the system is not strictly 3-4-3, it's more like 3-4-2-1, under
jose hazard was more of a conventional winger

Yep he's given the freedom do drift inside, but he's always come inside as he's right footed. He's still a wide player coming into the middle, though. Different role to him actually playing centrally and your team shape having play behind the striker.

Now, according to Spanish paper Diario Gol, Real appear to be closing in on a deal.

The report says a house and school has already been found for Hazard’s wife and children in Madrid.

The Belgian’s current contract expires in 2020, but Real may have to smash the world-record fee of £89m Manchester United spent on Paul Pogba should they wish to sign him.

Madrid's front six:

Bale Modric Kroos Hazard
Benzema Ronaldo

Casmeiro can fack off, this is much more fun.

Frightning

They should sign Auba for the speedy comedy factor. Imagine that side on the counter attack.
