Predrag Mijatovic has said he does not feel Eden Hazard can achieve the same levels of performance as Cristiano Ronaldo at Real Madrid.
The ex Chelsea winger wrapped a big-money switch to the Bernabeu in the summer and has been tipped to play a key role for Zinedine Zidane’s team this season.
A lot is expected from the little Belgian, however, Predrag believes even if Eden is one of the best players in the world, he will not still have Ronaldo’s impact.
His words, “Hazard is a very good player, for sure. He is one of the best players in Europe. But, in my opinion, we can’t expect him to do what Cristiano Ronaldo did. In my opinion, it’s impossible – there is no player who can play like Ronaldo.
“The pressure at Madrid is different to the pressure at Chelsea and you need some time to handle that.”
On the season to expect, “This season probably won’t be easy – it’s never easy at Madrid with the pressure. But I’m very optimistic that they’ll compete for titles, this won’t change.”
