Mijatovic: “Hazard is not here to start”

Hazard was shipwrecked again in a game where Real Madrid played their options to continue in the race for a title. The Belgian continues without giving signs of leadership since he signed for the white club. The excuses are running out and the specialists who point out to him as a great disappointment begin to pile up. The last was Pedja Mijatovic, former Real Madrid player and scorer of the goal that gave the white team the seventh European Cup. The Montenegrin could not be more concrete in his criticism of the Belgian on the SER microphones.

“Madrid did not know how to manage the good moments against Athletic, but it did not scare. Athletic will deservedly play the final. The match requires a deep analysis by Real Madrid,” Mijatovic said about the white game against Athletic. “That is what we all ask ourselves, with some normal things, he was active in the first 15 minutes and since we have been waiting for a year and a half to see him play, we are content with little. It does not satisfy me at all. He is a player who has spent several injuries and that he has tremendous credit for his coach, it is true, but so far he has offered practically nothing. The other day he reviewed his statistics from last year and it is something that scares a lot. He has to improve a lot, be patient with him. In games like against Athletic, perhaps the best thing is not to take him out from the beginning, but those are decisions of the coach who sees him training more. We are getting used to seeing Real Madrid play well without Hazard and that is worrisome, “said Mijatovic about the situation the Belgian is experiencing in The spar.

At other times, Madrid's defects in the game, attack or defense were camouflaged with the goal that Cristiano assured in the past. Now there is no such mattress and Mijatovic argues it. “Benzema responds, scores and has a significant amount of goals in the last year, but you are always missing those 40 or 50 goals that Cristiano scored and that is difficult to recover. Madrid has the problem of the goal. There are many games ahead and you can take advantage of some who are participating less, if that leads the team to improve, perhaps we can take some joy, “says the former Real Madrid player.
