#4 Hit: Eden Hazard

Although he only played the final 15 minutes here, Hazard's contribution was too significant to ignore in this list. The 27-year-old, who returned to full training earlier this week, was dreaming of a Real Madrid move and it's difficult to gauge how wantaway players like him feel after their public wishes are not granted.

However, he performed like a man on a mission and his presence gave Huddersfield players an unwelcome sight as their legs were already beginning to tire - he just stretched them further.

He completed six dribbles, more than any other outfield player throughout while being fouled unceremoniously by fullback Terence Kongolo as he raced towards the area. His unselfish nature was on display again too, as he skipped past a couple of challenges before teeing up Pedro to make Chelsea's lead an unassailable one with ten minutes left.

That was his 76th assist in appearance 301 for Chelsea, and supporters will be hoping for many more to come.
