#2 Eden Hazard- £10.6m

If you follow trends and patterns, you would have noticed that Eden Hazard has been hit-and-miss for a number of years now. Ever since 2014-15, the Belgian's form has alternated from world class to average every season. After winning the 2014-15 PFA Player of the Year award, Hazard followed it up with a sluggish start to the next season. Only recovering his form in the latter weeks of the season, Chelsea finished tenth.

The trend continued as Hazard enjoyed a brilliant 2016-17 season before blowing hot and cold throughout the entirety of last season. Following this trend, one would say that the Belgian star is set to light the league up this season. And with Maurizio Sarri at the managerial seat, Hazard could get even better. The slick passing style adopted by the Blues could make it even better for the winger.

He did not start the first two games but now that he is fully fit, he will begin firing. His two appearances from the bench did produce some assists to his name, prompting a slight increase in value to £10.6m. The 2-1 victory at Newcastle also suggests that Hazard will be taking Chelsea's penalties, even with new signing Jorginho on the pitch. That is an added bonus, as if you needed one, to pick Hazard for your team. He still very much is the main man in attack at Stamford Bridge and if Chelsea are to achieve something this season, Hazard will be a big part of it.
