I tend to defend Hazard in this forum past years, especially to Alen. He used to be the main reason I watched Ligue 1 religiously back in the day. He is undoubtedly a top player, but there are LAYERS and levels to it like in anything else, and he isnt simply in Neymar level. He is a top player, and can be a go to guy, but not in the best around kind of go-to-guy, more of a mid level decisive top player who brings his quality consistently. But rarely shows he is a big moments player nor have the mentality to just step up and take charge. Hope he elevates himself soon, but his current amongst the top half dozen players in his field might be his ceiling. Compared to Neymar who's potential ceiling IMO is the best player period. Neymar has that effortless quality to step and score or make something happen whenever he is needed.
I dont want to be harsh, but what Neymar did in WC is basically text book of what he is about, and Hazard who is also surrounded by quality simply just played a hide and seek kind of tourno instead of doing something that remotely comes close to impressing. Also kinda like how he is in Chelsea right now. He isnt the main issue, but his attitude and mentality is defenitely major part of their troubles. I see them chasing games to tie or win in final minutes, and this guy litterally jogs slowly to take the corner, and hits it like he doesnt give a fuck. You can have all the talent in the world, but if you dont have the desire and fire in you to show you are the best, you will never come close to it.
