“I’m not watching football for Haaland.”-“Haaland can score 2 or 3 goals in games, but I don’t like to watch the football he plays he is a big Flop and Manchester City should sell him”-Real Madrid Flop player Eden Hard Criticises Erling Haaland for playing poor football.

Eden Hazard’s preoccupation with the concept of “pure football” is still widely discussed, and his most recent comments reflect the types of players he admires.

A few weeks ago, the now-retired Belgian footballer boldly declared that when it came to “pure football,” only Lionel Messi could compete with him.

Hazard’s enthusiasm for “authentic football”
He positioned himself ahead of Messi’s longtime rival, Cristiano Ronaldo, with this remark, albeit acknowledging Ronaldo’s unrivalled goal-scoring talent by naming him the greatest goal-scorer in history.

Though comments to the 33-year-old’s statement have been mixed, Hazard—who is known for his technical style of play and incredible ball-dribbling ability—has now highlighted a few current players he finds intriguing.

Hazard chooses stars he likes and dismisses Haaland.
The Belgian appears to appreciate players with exceptional technical ability who also demonstrate flair and ingenuity in addition to goal scoring.

It’s unsurprising that he left out Erling Haaland, Manchester City’s striker who is known for his great goal-scoring ability but is regularly scolded for playing without technique.

According to Transfermarkt, his remarkable 52 goals in 53 games for the Citizens last season played a significant role in pushing them to achieve a historic triple, which included the elusive Champions League trophy.

Hazard, a former Chelsea player, has identified the “most talented” player in his team. It is not the well-known players like Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard, Luka Modric, or Kevin De Bruyne, as reported by Sports Brief.

Hazard has selected his most skilled partner in an unusual way, despite having played alongside numerous excellent players at Lille, Chelsea, and Real Madrid.
