They are totally different players really.
Neymar vs Hazard
- Thread starter Neymessi
- Start date
They are not totally different players. They are somewhat different players and there is no reason they cannot be compared. Neymar is the far superior player and the only reason something like this is even mentioned is that Hazard enjoys the EPL hype-machine treatment.

That's too easy. Sounds like people just trying to defend their own players. The same way as if Chelsea fans would say Hazard is better because Neymar plays in a "league with two teams".
In general I'd say Hazard is better in transitional phases and without the ball, while Neymar is a bit better with the ball, especially his end product. Both are fantastic players and no one is "overhyped" here. Even if, it'd be both because they are seen as world class players but have no trophies. A good player should have titles if they're playing for a top club.

Hazard is turning 24 next month. I doubt he will ever improve his finishing significantly enough. Even if he does Neymar's development won't exactly stand still at 22. In fact it should be easier for Neymar to improve his decision making and passing, something that naturally comes with experience, than it will be for Hazard to suddenly develop a goalscoring instinct. Something that doesn't necessarily come with age.

Neymar completes 23 less than a month after Hazard completes 24 .age wise a year difference isn't that big .both has the potential to improve . It depends on their hard work and their coaches ability to get the best out of them ,along with Gotze those are the players with the best chance to win Ballon d'or from the early 90's born generation

The Lille team of 2010/2011 that won the first domestic price of Lille in about 50 years was completely build around Hazard. He won every individual trophy in France multiple times before he turned 21. Don't let his current role at Chelsea fool you.

Ligue 1 was not so great. Why don't Belgium build their team around him? De Bruyne is better wouldn't you say?

So what ? He was still young and carried the entire weight of the team, I was just pointing out you can build a team around him cause you were saying it is impossible.
And yes, De Bruyne is consistently the best man on the pitch for Belgium. We don't build a team around Hazard, not that it can't be done but just as a matter of choice. We believe that we can get the most out of Hazard and the others in the current system. Again, this doesn't mean he can't be the main man.

Point taken, but maybe Hazard is more Di Maria level.
