Hazard, now or never

EI Real Madrid signed Eden Hazard to make it the epicenter of your project post christian and since then, a year and a half later, the Belgian could not go from being a side note. The club maintains faith in its bet, Zidane protects him after his continuous injuries (eight as a Real Madrid player) and favors “friendly” returns. But all that support does not flow into Hazard offering at least a notable version.

The white fans begin to observe with concern a star who does not contribute to an anemic Madrid of goals (Hazard has only managed three as a Real Madrid player) and to which he has not even been able to contribute 2,000 minutes of play yet. He has played 1,964 ’, 31 percent of the possible ones. Pamplona saw a leaden Hazard and Madrid continues to pay Chelsea the variable bonuses (up to 40 million euros were signed), in addition to the fixed € 100M for a crack who has hardly contributed as expected of him. Especially when in the fan's retina is Hazard being decisive and the MVP of the Europa League won for Chelsea together before arriving at the Bernabéu in 2019.

But This Super Cup is the catalyst that Hazard needs. The one last year, in Saudi Arabia, served Courtois. Hazard's compatriot chased away the ghosts, grew up before the spotlights and began that state in a superb way that led him to be the Zamora of the last League. Eden has Thibaut's mirror to look at herself.

His possible first Classic …

The Super Cup is a golden occasion, especially considering the ingredients of the stew. That this new Athletic by Marcelino is an enigmatic challenge and that if the final is passed, another Classic could bring this year. It would be Hazard's first with the white elastic. The injuries deprived him of those of the last League and of Madrid's visit to Camp Nou in this one. The balance of those three duels against Barcelona (two wins and a draw) shows that this recent Madrid knows how to get by without Hazard in the great game of our football, all the more reason for Hazard to want to get on that inertia if there is a Classic in the final on Sunday.
