    Why? Not seen enough of him to have an opinion either way. I do think the young players signed by Chelsea are likely to need time to gel.

      Not sure really, just a hunch.

        I really don't think Hazard will flop.

        I think it's just the fact he's come with a massive price tag that makes you expect a bit more from him.

          eden hazard on the pitch looks just like joe cole. lots of little tricks and flicks but going absolutely nowhere.

          unfortunately i agree with the other lads that kagawa is quality. I think fergie signed him to **** rooney off.

          This is how everyone's best 6 attacking players line up

          United - rooney, RVP, kagawa, nani, young, valencia
          City - aguero, tevez, silva, nasri, toure, balotelli
          Arsenal - giroud, podolski, cazorla, gervinho, walcott, oxlade-chamberlain
          Spurs - defoe, bale, lennon, sigurdsson, kane (bit short here)
          Chelsea - torres, mata, hazard, marin, ramires, sturridge
          Liverpool - Suarez, gerrard, borini, downing, carroll, joe cole

          united with the purchase of RVP and kagawa now rival city for the best attacking talents on display. Chelsea probably have the next best and then its a toss up between us and arsenal and they probably nick it. As things stand at the moment spurs have the weakest attack of the top six.

          i think rodgers wants to sort the midfield out first and then next season we will focus on the attack. I think we will probably end up with a couple of potential superstars next summer if rodgers first season goes well.

              Isn't Van der Vaart still at Tottenham? Our attacking options are pretty poor tbh, after Gerrard, Suarez and Borini we don't have anyone we can rely on, and that's expecting something of Borini too. We need another top class attacker or two, firepower wins the league that's how it is.

                yes he is but they still look a little short to me.

                      When he hasn't been injured he's been poor this season.

                        To be fair I've only seen him a couple of times and both times he was very good.

                        Just presumed he was like that all the time.

                          No mate he's been off the boil for the most part and injured for a few games as well.

                          Tough picking a best XI this year, Michu, Suarez, Van Persie and Ba all doing so well.. Especially with Fellaini, Osman, Baines, Pienaar all doing well and me really not wanting to put any of them in!

                              Michu, Ba and Fellani (vomit) really have to be very close to that side. Silva? Not for me, not even close to his form last year. And Mata has been much better than Hazard.

                              Not a clue about CB's, seems everyone in the league has forgotten how to defend this season. Can we have a 1-2-5-3 formation?
                              I could not dig, I dared not rob:
                              Therefore I lied to please the mob.
                              Now all my lies are proved untrue
                              And I must face the men I slew.
                              What tale shall serve me here among
                              Mine angry and defrauded young?
