The Blues picked up their first league win for over a month against Norwich City at the weekend as Hazard starred behind goalscorer Diego Costa in a narrow 1-0 victory at Stamford Bridge. Maybe I have to play a No. 10 because we have to try’. “Alex had a sore thigh but to be honest that was one I knew about”.

Eden Hazard has come under fire for a few underwhelming performances and was benched by Jose Mourinho during Chelsea’s woeful start to the campaign, but the Belgian says there is no problem with his manager and backed him to turn things around.
“It’s my fourth season now, and we won a lot of trophies last season”. “If I can play number 10?’ And we try”, he added. But I have to play with this responsibility.
The decision by the Portuguese coach seemed to have paid off as Hazard had one of his best games this season against Norwich City on Saturday. “Maybe not this season, because it will be hard, but next season and onwards”.
“I played a very good game in the Cup in Stoke and, (against Norwich), it was the same”.
The Premier League champions could have added a second six minutes from time through an unlikely source, when Nemanja Matic dropped the shoulders to ghost past three players on the edge of the area, but Ruddy denied the Serb with a sharp save low to his right.
Costa has been struggling to score goals this season and has recorded more cards than goals already while summer signing Radamel Falcao has failed to impress since his arrival during the summer transfer window and Loic Remy is also not doing good.

“Referees have got a hard job but the bottom line is if you don’t remonstrate, and you don’t ask for decisions and you don’t appeal for them, ultimately you won’t get them. I tried to find out why, but I don’t know”, Hazard said ahead of Tuesday’s match at Maccabi Tel Aviv.
