Hazard played football because it was fun, not for money or glory - that's why he had to retire at 32
Hazard played football because it was fun, not for money or glory – that’s why he had to retire at 32We are gathered here today to talk about joy. We are gathered here to talk about involuntary grinning and gasping, about the unfathomable, ineffable beauty of short, sharp lateral movements, about whether talent can ever be truly natural.He confirmed it on Tuesday aged 32, saying: “You must listen to yourself and say stop at the right time.
Chelsea teammate John Obi Mikel called Hazard the laziest footballer he had ever encountered, and said “he never trained”. He called Chelsea’s training ground the “Cobham Cabana”. Filipe Luis said he “didn’t run to defend much, didn’t train well and five minutes before games he’d be playing Mario Kart in the dressing room”.
As he said upon signing, he wasn’t a Galactico, he was just a very good footballer. If you wanted Hazard to be anything other than what he was, if you loved the idea more than the man, flaws and all, you couldn’t truly benefit from the positives.
