Ok its fine but he is not a striker. It's like saying Robben was shit because he didnt score enough.
He is a attacking forward? wingers in modern games score lots of goals and affect the game not just dribble,dribble, and go into blind alleys looking for fouls.

Robben scored lots of goals in league and Cl plus assists?:lol: 4 non pen goals and 9 goals in total in 55 CL matches is a pathetic return.

How many Robben had? Look up Ribery too while youre at it :D just out of curiosity.
Ribery was never known as a goal scorer but as a creator. He barely scored 10 or more goals in the league only a few times in his career. Hazard has had seasons with around 15 goals in EPL 3-4 times, and he scored 20 in Ligue 1 before leaving for Chelsea. Even then, Ribery scored twice as many goals and twice as many assists in thejr CL careers, in some 30 more games. Robben is another level

And thats beside the point. He was never a top 3 player on the planet, not even top 5.

Robben had 31 goals in 110 CL games, it's actually quite a lot for a winger. Robben shits on Hazard any day of the week, also when Hazard was best in Chelsea.

Robben alone nearly carried a quite mediocre Bayern to a treble in 2010, played an outstanding WC in 2014 as well probably being the best Dutch player. He's one of the best wingers of all time and a one man army.

Hazard was great in Chelsea but never at Robbens level imo. The Belgian is totally washed up and unprofessional.

Robben has some memorable big game perforfmances like against Barce in knockouts and CL final i cant even think of one for hazard he was that forgetable in that. Wingers are forwards these days and very much need to be scoring or assisting alot. Most of hazards are pens and not much else.

Seen this brought up a million times and still dont see what so impressive about it but trust you to derail this conversation into something no one was talking about.:touched:
It's a average performance. No one says he was bad but Neddy is just :lol3: the most random average performance he wanked so far

Better than any international performance from CR7, or Messi for that matter.

Dribbling masterclass.

France were shitting themselves every time he got the ball. They put 4 guys on him at one point.

Diego Maradona esque
:lol3:

Please show to us uneducated peasants the extraordinary dribbles there. I'm watching but I want to know what to look at exactly. Where should I say wow that's amazing? Where should I get the Maradona flashbacks?

People like @Arcticdaly @zizinho @Elvin are what I like to call "low IQ fans"

They look at the score and the goalscorers and they make their conclusions based on that, because they don't know how to appreciate the game.

@Nedved96 is something called a "high IQ fan". I have a deeper understanding of football, an understanding that the mere peasants on this forum cannot comprehend.

I should spend less time on this forum and more time discussing football with fellow intellectuals like Pep Guardiola.
