Another player who was linked heavily with Real Madrid this summer was Eden Hazard. The Belgian also stayed put at Chelsea and did not make the switch to Bernabeu.

He has only made 2 starts for Chelsea this season in their 4 games but was the man of the match in both games. He has shown that he can be unstoppable if he is given the ball and the freedom to run rings around the defence.

Maurizio Sarri's style of play has done exactly that and he has started to enjoy football once again. If he continues to play the way he is doing right now, he can easily climb up the ladder but a podium finish might not be possible for him this season.

The worry for Chelsea right now is that he has just 2 years left on his current contract and Real Madrid might make a swoop for him next summer. Should he decide to join Los Blancos, Chelsea will find it very difficult to replace him.
