#2 Will Hazard and Costa spoil Mourinho’s visit?
There is no denying that the duo of Hazard and Costa played a pivotal role in Chelsea’s title-winning campaign under Mourinho in the 2014-15 season. However, the duo looked like a shadow of themselves in the next season, especially Hazard whose performances were the hardest to comprehend. The reigning Player of the Year was below-par and failed to score a single Premier League goal for Mourinho last season.
Because of the poor form of their star players the side that had strolled to the title a year before, fell completely apart.
Now under the Italian manager, these two players have regained their lost touch and are suddenly looking like the version of themselves that we saw under Mourinho in the 2014-15 season. Without any doubt, the duo will be central to Chelsea’s fortunes on Sunday and it will be interesting to see how they break Mourinho’s restraints.
