I’m pretty much the only one that defends Hazard, he got shat on by the majority of this forum lol not sure where you get this idea that he gets a pass. Same goes with Kroos and Isco, a lot of people have asked for them to be sold many times over. I can’t think of a single player who gets a pass on this forum, they might by a poster or two but generally people are quick to destroy them when they aren’t playing well.
There’s countless memes of Hazards weight. Isco himself has shared shirtless pics in the past for the shtick he gets. We are a ruthless fanbase for good reason
I agree with all of this in terms of what he can bring to the team, I am one of the few who thinks he has a lot to offer this team and I would play him long before I play Isco, but ZZ May disagree with me there, I don’t know if he can be a starter considering how ZZ likes to lineup, but I think he definitely deserves more minutes as one of the things we really lack is creativity in and around the opponents box and I am a firm believer that if he gets into a rhythm he can bring that for us, having said all that though, I thought he had a very poor game yesterday, but , that happens sometimes with all players

I hope so, as I said yesterday no one has cemented that right spot as theirs so far so he could get a shot.
I doubt it, don’t think ZZ sees him as part of his essential squad at the moment he is on the fringes nearly as much as Mariano is, we know this because the club has been trying to get him to go out on loan, obviously sanctioned by ZZ who probably thinks he needs it and that that’s the best thing for him at this time, Way way down the pecking order, apparently ZZ said this game changes nothing when it comes to Brahim, also judging players from one game whether positively or negatively isn’t the right way IMO

Brahim not listening to the club and refusing to go on loan didn't do him any favors imo. His best bet is to seek playing time elsewhere and comeback in a season or 2.
Unionistas coach: "When we saw the eleven of Madrid, we thought: "There will be no jokes here." Zidane showed that he respects us very much and we have to thank him for that. We felt some pride. As soon as the ball went in motion, they behaved like real gentlemen. I am proud of how we played." Seems like the Unionistas coach didn't feel condescended to by the lack of celebrations by our players after the goals.
It would be a far better option than Bale or Lucas. Bale is injured so maybe Zidane gives him a sub cameo.
Fee bad for Jovic. The amount of times he hits the woodwork speaks volumes in itself. He just needs to get some goals in the back of the net and they’ll keep on coming.
Brahim is currently a better footballer than Gareth Bale who honestly looks like a corpse on the pitch. Don't think any sane person could disagree with that.
It’s like people only remember peak Gareth Bale. Ofcourse that Bale is better, but right now Bale is really bad. So claiming that Brahim is better atm is nothing strange.
The club wanted Brahim to get more minutes but he'd rather be a paid spectator than get actual game time elsewhere. Brahim is ranked under Vini, Rodrygo, Lucas Vazquez even if you exclude Bale. Him and his father are weird for refusing to join a different situation on loan.
Bale is at the end of his career, Brahim's is just starting, he's an almost professional football player right now. He wants to either play for Madrid, or move with a permanent transfer. Same thing he pulled on ManCity and we fell for it.
Schweinsteiger was sent to the Manchester United reserves at age 31,and eventually went to the MLS at 33, so he basically retired from top flight football at 33. Not every player is Ronaldo who's a freak of nature. Marcelo is 31 and also arguably looking at the end of his career at the elite level. Kaka returned to Brazil at 32. Bale is closer to retirement than Brahim is to a starting spot on a CL contender. Both Bale and Brahim played against a set of bartenders and pencil pushers and people sit and have a discussion about their performance.
