Lol, diplomatic would have been 'no comment', not what he's been actively doing over the past few weeks which is intentionally dropping hints in an attempt to increase speculation and force the clubs after him to offer more wages/a higher fee for his agent, who like I said before stands to make £7million out of this deal - Hazard's his only high profile client so he was very much trying to orchestrate this to squeeze as much money out of it as possible.
It would be much easier on fans if footballers took a vow of silence, although sports newspapers / websites would be fucking boring. Given a choice, when some Catalan journo walks up to Yaya and asks him what he thinks about Barca I'd rather he spat in his face and went on his way, but it doesn't turn out like that.
So this guy's saying stuff in order to "force clubs to offer more wages". What a madman! He should be shunned by every other professional footballer who as we know only play for... other stuff. Bearing in mind we've been on the wrong end of accusations of ruining football by paying over the odds for players, we can't have a go at Hazard for playing the same game just because he doesn't pick us.
