Why'd you do it Gylfi?

Apparently on his way to Chelseafc. @hazardeden10

Rumours that were after Dos Santos too

[Hank Scorpio]

Chelsea are going to have a ridiculous amount of attackers next season. Hazard, Mata, Marin, Torres, Sturridge, Lukaku and you've got that Lucas coming through who looks a great prospect.

[Kanbei]

So it looks like Hazard is heading to Chelsea, hopefully Kagawa might be signed in the next few days to soften the blow!

[PES Fan]

Well done to Hazard. Went for the money.

Would have understood if he went to City as they are champions and actually have a manager. He is going to announce it on twitter too. Wow, never seen a footballer who hasn't done much with an ego.

Some genuine quality young talent there you have to say. They could be pretty damn fun to watch next season. I've heard a lot of good things about that Lucas (apparently Madrid are gonna sign the 'other' good Lucas who Chelsea also want) but i'm curious to see how Marin does. You get the feeling this is the sort of change/talent that AVB wanted to introduce.

Well done to Hazard. Went for the money.

He chose the Champions League winners.

Who don't have a manager and weren't best team in England last season. Apparently City and Man Utd weren't prepared to pay the £6m agent fees.

[D_C]

I feel a little better about that now.

[Dual]

dual manage them

k lol

[Irene Demova]

FSG should just save time and get the manager of the Red Sox to dual manage them and Liverpool, should keep Henry happy anyway.

He's legitimately the worst manager in baseball, famous only for disguising himself to sneak back into a game: http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=9330321&source=MLB

Sounds like our man then

Apparently someone hacked Fox News' sport news Twitter to say that Messi had died of heart complications

But yeah it's a done deal - Hazard will be joining Chelsea. The only thing that's weird about this is how it wasn't until after the Champions League final that Hazard suddenly began flirting with the idea of joining Chelsea. So if they didn't beat Bayern who would he have gone to?

[bear]

>Mugabe announces he is a Chelsea supporter
>Hazard joins Chelsea


What sort of man are you Eden?

[D_C]

Maybe Hazard to #Chelsea is not a done deal. Backed in to 6/4 from 6/1 in last 2 hours to join #MUFC

[Preezy]

Wish Hazard (or the club he's apparently decided upon) would just hurry the hell up and spill the beans. It's become tedious.

FA has voted to restructure youth football so that kids will be playing five-a-side until they're 12/13.

About time. Ridiculous how far behind other countries England has dropped in youth development.

The amount of times I've been refereeing under 10 matches and hearing the managers shout "strawberry floating hoof it" actually makes me cringe.
