The thing about this is, although Hazard obviously shouldn't have done it, it's not as if it was a 10-year old kid. The ballboy was 17 years old and acting the cunt. If he acting like such a dick anywhere else he was going to get a kicking. If it was a 10y/o I doubt Hazard would have reacted in such a manner, as it's a mischievous kid, not a 17y/o who knew fully what he was doing. I'm not condoning what Hazard did, but the reaction some people are giving on Twitter is hilarious, as if he murdered a 4 year old or something. With his foot.

Yeah, if he gave James Ward-Prowse or Luke Shaw a little kick, no one would call childline.

Hahahahaha, embarrassing.

Sure, the ballboy seems like a cunt. But, he's a boy. Hazard is a grown man and a professional football player, you can't do what he did. He pushed the boy over and then kicked him, like fuck was he trying to kick the ball.

Sure.

Never a red

Hope he stays suspended against Newcastle though.

Looked even better than the time Cabaye pushed over a ballboy.

He's a San Lorenzo fan. He's not going to move to one of the other grandes and the likes of Vélez and Argentinos can't/won't buy him.

Why not?

I'm guessing there's a really, really intense rivalry, but he wants to move their for personal reasons. I'm guessing that Buenos Aires clubs must swap players regularly because there's loads of them.

Joey Barton works hard.

He's certainly not blessed with pace, strength or size.

I get the impression we want a striker who can play on the wing and after failing to get Remy (and presumably other targets) we've settled for a cheaper option as and have spent the money elsewhere. From a couple of French experts, they seem to be suggesting Gouffran is good, but not great. Also read he's not very quick.

He's a youth coach or something I think. I can see why that would make San Lorenzo a preferred destination, but it's often reported like San Lorenzo is the important bit of the deal, rather than going to Buenos Aires.

I get he might want a return to Buenos Aires, but why does it have to be San Lorenzo?

What difference is San Lorenzo to Boca/River/Velez/Argentinos etc. considering he's not moving for financial or footballing reasons, but strictly for geography.

I think with Ashley it's more about the value. And he's apparently available. Sporting are currently 8th and out of Europe, so a good time to buy probably.

How does he look uninterested? He's played about 20mins in the past year. And in a couple of cameos he's looked quite lively. And by 'having
a go' at fans, that at least he shows he cares.

I agree he's a prat and maybe he should have been released for his off the field activities, but we kept Joey Barton for four years.

And that guy is shouting at someone he doesn't even know in a takeaway in front of his wife and is claiming the moral high ground?

Shows how fans think.

Must be watching Charles N'Zogbia. We've got Villa in a few days and a loanee at Bradford, Curtis Good.

Bit strange we Newcastle didn't announce Hairrera signing and do a joint photo thing. That deal was rumoured to be completed earlier today.

Considering much bigger clubs have been after him, I'd be prepared to agree.

Eh?

Big clubs still need to actually buy and pay for players.

It doesn't seem Wenger's style to hijack a player at the eleventh hour. Do Arsenal even need a CB?

I wouldn't mind Adkins in, I suppose. Can't really think of many other options.

If Pardew is to go, I hope he has a go at the fans properly.

Yep, I definitely called it a fact. I don't even know about the second offence against Newcastle. (And Suarez cheated to get Coloccini sent off, earlier in the season)

But it's easily possible to be a good player and play for an unpopular team and not be disliked by most football fans.

No the crowd are a disgrace. Far too many arrogant fans who expect Newcastle to steamroller any opposition. Booing a bad shot or cross is simply unacceptable.

Nile ranger ‏@NilePowerRanger
Certain fans need to not come and support this team... Coming out to BOOO us.. Stay at home.. Don't need ur BOO's.... SAY NO MORE !!!!

I don't even like (and never have) Pardew, and I despise rhetoric about the crowd being the '12th man', but in SJP it's a poisonous atmosphere that erodes all confidence and composure, and leads to the conceding off soft goals and the inability to actually play well. Hopefully the crowds will drop and the performances will come back. They boo backwards passes ffs.

Plus I can't stand all the fair weather fans who backed Pardew last year and Ashley's transfer policy and acted all smug, and now complain all the time about them now.

Because Van Persie's better and people hate United more than Liverpool.

Genuinely can't believe Pardew blamed the fans for the negativity today.

I know, Pardew speaking sense for once.

The second half tactics and substitutions were absolutely dreadful, but they still weren't the biggest factor. Morons.

That was a shit one-footed tackle that warranted the yellow it got.

Why are you mentioning that it was one-footed? Definitely late and using excessive force there.

EDIT - Is it even one footed? Looks like he manages to clatter him with both.

I've seen the rumours, but I doubt Milan have the money. Do you reckon it might happen?

Although Newcastle have apparently bid for Gaetan Bong and Massadio Haidara, two LB's and rumoured to want Jack Butland.

Genuine question?

A lot of England fans were against the likes of Arteta and Cudicini playing for England when they were suggested a few years ago. Some would probably be uncomfortable with Aaron Hunt and Lewis Holtby playing for England and many cricket fans are against the use of 'foreign' players playing for England.

Well yeah, he's basically got a three month trial to show how good he is.

If QPR stay up, he continues to make sill money.

If QPR go down and he plays well, he could potentially be looking at a free transfer move to a big club, with an increased signing on fee, and good wages as he's now a proven Premier League player.

If QPR go down and he does not play well, ah well he'll still be taken on somewhere, on a free. West Ham or Sunderland would still pay him well.
