James
Rodriguez and Eden Hazard, both are talented footballers without a doubt but
who is better?
Both
of them are attacking midfielder, Hazard usually plays on the left side while Rodriguez
plays as a center attacking midfielder.
Rodriguez
who has impressed at the club level is also doing great for Colombia in the
World Cup. So far he is the top scorer with five goals. He has scored in every
game and has taken Colombia to the quarter final where they will play Brazil.
While
Hazard has proved his worth in the past seasons at Chelsea but failed to fulfill
the expectations of the fans in the group stages of the World Cup.
QUALITIES:
Rodriguez:
Strong in key passes, through balls, finishing, and a good ball control but
lacks in air.
Hazard: Strong
in dribbling, passing, long shots but weak defensively and lacks quality crossing.
Below
is the stats comparison.
