2. Hazard Is Not A Great Goalscorer
If you take a look at the past 10 years, you will see that the winners of the Ballon d'Or scored plenty numbers of goals. For example, Lionel Messi and Christiano Ronaldo have consistently maintained large numbers of goals Scoring 40, 50 and 60+ goals every season.
Therefore, goals have become an important factor to consider when it comes to awarding the Ballon d'Or. So the task becomes even more difficult for Hazard considering that he will be up against the likes of Antoine Griezmann, Luis Suarez, Gareth Bale, Neymar and Paulo Dybala, all of whom possess superior goalscoring records.
No doubt, Hazard is an awesome player, but he is more of a creator than a goal scorer and since goals are very important to win the award, his chances become even smaller.
