Liverpool’s Lille loanee Cole full of admiration for Hazard
Lille midfielder Joe Cole has heaped praise on teammate Eden Hazard who continues to be linked with a winter move away from the French club.
Cole, on loan from Liverpool, has compared the 20-year old Belgian to Barcelona star Lionel Messi and Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney whilst putting him in a different class to most others players.
"He knows how good he is, and that's a positive thing. All the top players have got that belief and a bit of presence and arrogance, and he's like that.
"He's a bit like Messi. There's only one Messi and I don't want to put pressure on the kid, but he's like him - short, squat, powerful legs, great touch, he can finish, he's got everything.""Hazard is different class. He's still only 21 [sic] and has definitely got another few gears to go up. He's got the same attitude as Rooney at that age. He's fearless," Cole said to talkSPORT.

I was thinking the other day and I realsed there isn't a fulham Tv show where we can voice our opinions and share our thoughts about Fulham Football Club. Talk bout ongoings in the club and performances etc etc.
So i took it upon myself to try out a fans forum type of show for fulham fans, It is only a pilot.... So just check it out you never know you could like it. Email in questions or request ffc@seft.co.uk (send in questions, opinions you want heard, interesting facts, cool pictures of you with fulham players etc etc)
