Hazard has a strong case to be top 5 ever since the World Cup. He was easily the best attacking player of the tournament. Had a great individual season with Chelsea carrying them to top 4 with the likes of Pedro, Willian, Giroud as supporting cast. None of those players would start for City, Pool, Arsenal and Spurs.

With Marcelino fired by Lim, anyone think Mourinho might be approached? Italy and France dont seem likely as options for Mourinho, Bayern is a possibility but apparently their board hate him, and cant see him going back to England so soon. Valencia is a team who would appreciate him even if he doesnt bring immediate success, something he was vocal about, and with how much influence Mendes has over there, its nots that unlikely.
They have appointed Celades already. He went to Singapore to meet Lim and is represented by Mendes' partner so doesn't seem like an interim appointment. Mou won't take that job imo. Clown owner who doesn't spend much and no chance to compete against the top 3. Marcelino did a great job finishing 4th twice and winning CDR. Now Lim and Mendes back in control even after Valencia finished 12th twice when they were running the show. _________________ Anoeta looking fantastic.

Then again Lim is the same guy who appointed Gary Neville because he was his business partner. Mendes connection is probably enough for Celades to get a multi-year deal.
This is great from Athletic Club Bilbao forward Inaki Williams. Describes how his parents left Ghana, travelled through desserts and scaled the border fence in Melilla to give their kids a future."If fame goes to my head, my mother gives me a hard time and shouts at me." https://t.co/QEyoW9BLuh— Colin Millar (@Millar_Colin) September 11, 2019 "Whoever took this decision not only trampled over you, but over a whole squad and fanbase.

I like the way Inaki has been welcomed into that community even if I have real questions about some of the behavior/attitudes in that community, his story suggest it can change.

Firing Marcelino is a big mistake and reeks of Mendes influence. He really improved them as a team and even got them their first trophy in a long time.
Yeah but in all seriousness, there is this thing called hindsight and it’s completly ridiculous to compare both transfers. We can all play the opinión game, but in my opinion, anyone thinking before the summer that 120 spent on Joao Felix was sane, is insane.
Only someone who never saw Felix and the type of goals he was scoring last season would call it insane. And if they did, they concluded that he would not replicate that performance in a better league and as he got older. I am not comparing him to Hazard. I believe he was a good buy for us, a year or two too late for my preference, but it was very clear that we needed a player like him, who is one of the best in the world, asap.. Expensive yes, I give you that.. but not insane.
Do we know if Navas might start for PSG vs us in the CL? If that's the case he will be super motivated to keep a clean sheet.
Your comparing transfers. At the beginning of the summer I would have said Hazard for 100 was better than Joao Felix for 120, and after 3/4 la liga games, (in which hazard did not even play) I wont be changing my mind. Have I been surprised by him since he joined AM, sure. Besides, we already have like 10 potential wonder kids to worry about developing. I’m ok to put Joao Felix on that list where Agüero, Torres, are.
@Ayayain Lovely ... PSG's largest ultra group, @CO_Ultras_Paris, have been told that the club will not tolerate anti-Neymar banners at Saturday's match vs Strasbourg; this has led to high tension, with the ultras considering boycotting the Real Madrid game - full story https://t.co/8zvFkI0bjo— Get French Football News (@GFFN) September 12, 2019
This is ironic. Last time we played PSG they were encouraging as many ultras to attend the game. Pathetic club.
Already told you about the Ultras in Paris. 1/ they are a very little minority of PSG fans amongs the tons they have in France. 2/ They are like the good (bad) ol' ULTRAS. At RM we dealt with those kind of people, and we feel perfect without most them around.. PSG did under Leproux, and will do it again if necessary. I just checked the usual PSG places after reading your post, and as expected, 90% of the PSG fans are already trashing the Ultras in the case that they start their sh*t again tomorrow. LEquipe, and LP also relied that PSG will deal with them if they trash Neymar. It isn't about Neymar only you know. I read a lot of comments about people that are done with that old way of supporting their team. I don't have time to attend games in live anymore, but as a family man, I don't want to have to deal with people yelling insults nor with ill intended banners if I ever attend football games with my daughters (which will not happen since the wife is not into football but that's for the sake of the discussion).
