Hazard has been in marvellous form for Chelsea in all the matches he has played in the ongoing season. His presence makes Chelsea look a completely different team and have a more attacking intent in their style of play.

His flair on the ball, technical skills, and dribbling capabilities have been compared with those shown by Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi. If he keeps on performing like this, there is a good chance in the future that he might become the best player in the world.

In the International arena too, Hazard won the FIFA Silver Ball for his superb performance for Belgium at the 2018 FIFA World Cup. He successfully led his team to bag the 3rd place in the tournament. Hence, both his performance for Chelsea and Belgium makes Hazard a strong contender to make the 3 man-short lists.
