Liverpool midfielder, Curtis Jones has come out to say that Eden Hazard was his idol as a child. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he believes Hazard is a better footballer than Salah, but be won’t knock anyone for picking the Liverpool man because he guarantees lots of goals and assists.

Jones added that he wouldn’t say Hazard is disrespected in the world of football, but he should definitely be in more conversations.
His words, “I know this might go a little bit left with our fans because the comparison is always there, but Hazard is the one [I’d pay to watch]. I know we compare him with Mo all the time and I’ve been into it with Mo. I play it from, who I saw as a kid when I loved the game and I wanted to be like as a player.
I feel like it was Hazard. Every game, I’d watch him, just like, ‘Wow, that’s football.’ I wouldn’t say he’s disrespected, but he might not come into certain [conversations] that he should.
It’s a talk I’ve had with Mo and all the lads. As a footballer, is he better than Mo? In my opinion, yes. But who would you rather have in your team? They’re going to say Mo because he gets you your goals and assists.”
WOW.
Liverpool Football Club is a professional football club based in Liverpool, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top tier of English football. Founded in 1892, the club joined the Football League the following year and has played its home games at Anfield since its formation. Liverpool is one of the most valuable and widely supported clubs in the world.
Domestically, the club has won nineteen league titles, eight FA Cups, a record ten League Cups and sixteen FA Community Shields. In international competitions, the club has won six European Cups, three UEFA Cups, four UEFA Super Cups—all English records—and one FIFA Club World Cup.
Liverpool’s home stadium is Anfield, which was built in 1884 on land adjacent to Stanley Park. Situated 2 miles (3 km) from Liverpool city centre, it was originally used by Everton before the latter moved to Goodison Park after a dispute over rent with Anfield owner John Houlding. Left with an empty ground, Houlding founded Liverpool in 1892 and the club has played at Anfield ever since. The capacity of the stadium at the time was 20,000, although only 100 spectators attended Liverpool’s first match at Anfield.
Liverpool won two further European Cups in 2005 and 2019 under the management of Rafael Benítez and Jürgen Klopp, respectively; the latter led Liverpool to a 19th league title in 2020, the club’s first during the Premier League era.
