Eden Hazard has been absolutely outstanding this season for Chelsea, as he has been an important figure in Antonio Conte’s side who have taken an impressive lead in the Premier League this season. His numbers may not be as high as the likes of Cavani or Messi, but 11 goals and five assists across the season have been impressive for someone who was so poor last season.

Conte’s arrival has allowed Hazard to express himself even more than before and rediscover the form he had when Chelsea last won the Premier League in 2014/15. His attacking play can be inspirational at times and can win games on his own at times, especially like he did against Arsenal earlier in the year, where he tore the Arsenal midfield and defence to pieces as Chelsea romped to a 3-1 victory.

If The Blues goes on to win the Premier League this season, which looks likely, a lot of credit will go to Hazard for having the match-winning spark to bring home all three points. He has probably been the best player in the Premier League this season and will likely be odds-on favourite for all the individual awards towards the end of the season.
