Hazard: "Not thinking about Red Devils at the moment"

INTERVIEWS Thorgan Hazard is growing more and more to his best form. He is directing the Anderlecht attack. Only that first goal is delayed. "Too bad I didn't score today, that would have done a lot of good," he said after the match against Cercle Brugge.


Hazard is currently the man of assists and actions. Against Cercle, he was close to his first goal in the Anderlecht shirt, but his place ball stranded on the post. "I feel good," he sounded afterwards. "Too bad my first goal isn't there yet. All the attackers are scoring, except me. Although, of course, you can say it's not necessary because we won 0-3. But it would please me."

Hazard saw Anderlecht play a strong first half. After halftime, however, he felt they needed to improve. "We should have kept the ball better and let them run more. But we are in a good dynamic. Only that game at Standard remains on our minds."

He may get the question every week, but even now a reporter polled whether brother Eden will not be coming to watch sometime soon. "Whenever he has time," Thorgan said. "Or rather: when his sons are on leave. He does watch our matches on television, because his sons want to see their uncle at work. Whether they are fans of Anderlecht? Not right away, but of their uncle. Just like of Kylian. I hope they will be in the stadium when we play each other."

With his performance the past few matches, more and more analysts are suggesting that Hazard could be back in the picture for the Red Devils. "We'll see," Hazard said. "Right now I'm not thinking about that."
