and he dribble pass Neymar.. if you feel your answer is yes, don't bother quoting me, I would not like to argue this on here
do you actually think neymar dribbles better than hazard?

Mind you, there is a difference between being successful with dribbles and attempting more dribbles.

Hazard wey dey even top neymar oga (messi) for successful dribbles.

The stats from our win on Saturday highlight a number of crucial contributions from Antonio Conte’s men…
We had 14 shots to Brighton’s 10 although crucially 10 of our efforts were on target in contrast to just three of theirs.
Willian and Michy Batshuayi had four attempts apiece and they were followed by the third man in our frontline, Eden Hazard , who had three. Eleven of our efforts stemmed from open-play moves, and half of our total amount were struck from outside the box.
We had a 58.3 per cent share of possession and an 86 per cent pass completion rate.
In total, we completed 462 passes with N’Golo Kante (56), Cesar Azpilicueta (54), Tiemoue Bakayoko (54) and Hazard (51) all ranking highly.
When it came to key passes, Willian made the most with four, followed by Hazard with three. No player had more touches of the ball than the Belgian’s 92.
Hazard was successful with nine dribbles, accounting for half of the team’s total of 18.
Bakayoko was the next best Chelsea player with three.
In terms of tackles, N’Golo Kante won a joint game-high three with substitute David Luiz and Toni Rudiger recording two apiece. Overall we had a 62 per cent tackle completion rate in contrast to Brighton’s 38 per cent.
Kante and Marcos Alonso made three interceptions each, and Willy Caballero and Rudiger were responsible for four clearances.
Willian made his 50th consecutive Premier League appearance, the longest current run among all outfield players in the league. He has been directly involved in seven goals in his last five Premier League starts for us (three goals, four assists).





Guys, we had 10 massive shots on target out of 14. That is a big improvement from our previous matches.

The rest stuffs Hazard said:

“Football is simple: keep the ball on the ground and try [to play] like we did. I think we have two very good strikers in Alvaro and Michy. If they are not ready to play I can play striker, so I don't think we need [another one].

“Because we are missing chances people are saying we need another striker, but if we are scoring goals we are the best attack in the league and no one can say we need a striker. It depends on the form of the team and I think we're happy with the team we have.

Michy Batshuayi Eden Hazard Chelsea Brighton Premier League

“Who is the best team this year? Man City. The strikers, [Gabriel] Jesus and [Sergio] Aguero, are not big. It's simple. It depends how you want to play. If you want to play with long balls you need a target man, if you want to keep the ball on the floor you need a small guy. It depends how you want to play.

“Yes, it sometimes happens. From the first minute until the last one you feel confident. When you score early it's easier because you have the confidence straight from the start of the game.

“When you see the second goal with Willian, it's one of the best of the season because we create movement with one touch, one touch, and then the finishing is good. We want to do more like this.

“No, no. Maybe one big boy can do that also! Of course we are sharp on the floor, so maybe it's easier to do the movement we are working on in training.”

Hazard completed only his second 90 minutes in the last nine games as Conte tries to protect him during a busy fixture schedule.

The forward also missed pre-season and had a broken ankle that he recovered from over the summer. Hazard spoke about his fitness and how he is being managed by his Italian boss.

“Yes I was not sure, but now I'm sure! It's good to play, good to score, so everything was good today. You can ask the manager. The manager answered last week, so I don't need to talk about this.

“When I'm on the pitch I try to give my best, when I'm not on the pitch on the bench I want the team to do the best. That's it. I think it's normal when you miss two months of preseason with an injury.

"I had a good start to the season after the injury, and then it's not easy to stay on the top. But I try, I try to work in training and when I'm on the pitch I try to give everything. Sometimes it happens like today when we play an amazing game, sometimes not. I just keep going, keep training hard and try to do my best."

to NL analysts them
hazard on point here in the style of play.

Penalties are not an evidence of a players sharpness or productivity

Its th only situation where you have a player staying unchallenged by defenders and the keeper waiting like a lame duck on the goal line

Penalties is the only thing Hazard can point to at being better than Sane

also he [Caballero] did a great performance and everyone watching the game can see this. He did it against Norwich three days ago and now again so he is a really good goalkeeper.’
For Hazard , having the chance to play like he did and score his first goals in open play since the start of December, the first of which was the 100th league goal of his career for Chelsea and Lille combined, was pure joy.
‘It is my job to score. Every game I try to score goals and create chances and that is why I like to play football, to enjoy on the pitch and score goals.
‘When I watch the game after I want to see this sort of thing [the way Chelsea played against Brighton], not just my goals but when we create chances like this. I am happy for that, not my two goals, but for the way we are moving, passing the ball, and that is why we love football. We try to do this every game, sometimes it happens, sometimes not and in this game it did so we are happy.’

They were made to pay for the missed chances late on as Hazard capped another mazy run with a ruthless finish before Moses latched onto substitute Charly Musonda's inch-perfect 40-yard to seal a resounding away victory.
Opta stats
Brighton have picked up just one win from their last 13 Premier League games (D5 L7), failing to score in nine of these.
Chelsea have won 45 of their 76 away games against newly-promoted sides in the Premier League, a joint-high figure (Arsenal have also won 45). The Blues extended their top-flight unbeaten run to eight games (W5 D3), their longest streak without a defeat since March (also eight).
Willian made his 50th consecutive Premier League appearance, the longest current run of any player in the competition. He has been directly involved in eight goals in his last five Premier League starts for Chelsea (3 goals, 5 assists), as many as he managed in his previous 20.
Eden Hazard celebrates with Willian after scoring the opening goal of the game
Hazard's opener was his 100th goal in league football (now 101), with 65 coming for Chelsea and 36 for Lille. He has now scored (65) or assisted (37) 102 Premier League goals for Chelsea; taking him ahead of Gianfranco Zola (101) to outright third for the club in the competition (Lampard 237, Drogba 159).
Batshuayi registered his first assist in his last 31 Premier League appearances, since he set up Diego Costa on his debut in the competition in August 2016.
Man of the Match - Eden Hazard
Hazard was in the mood at the Amex Stadium. Every time he got on the ball he terrified Brighton's defenders and his finishing was at its exquisite best as his double inspired Chelsea to a comprehensive away victory.
His perfermonace left Jamie Redknapp, who watching the game in the studio for Sky Sports, purring.
"If VAR looked at his performance today, then some it would have illegal as he was that good", the former Liverpool midfielder said. "Willian was fantastic as well - as was Batshuayi, but Hazard was playing a different game. He was at his energetic, beautiful best today."
Man of the Match, @hazardeden10
2 goals from 2 shots on target

The pundit - Thierry Henry
"Hazard is unplayable when he's in that mood. When he plays like this it's more than likely Chelsea are going to win the game.
"I like what Antonio Conte does. I watched the game against Leicester and they weren't scoring goals - Conte took him off. When you do that to a player like him with the quality he has, it woke him up. From the beginning, he meant business.
Eden Hazard rides a challenge by Dale Stephens
"Conte did it last season ahead of a game with Arsenal and we all know what he did to Arsenal with that goal last year. I like the way Hazard reacted from the Leicester game.
"That's the job of the boss - sometimes a player might be tired, sometimes a player needs a reminder that he's not doing enough. I'm not saying Hazard wasn't. Usually when you take the main player off after an hour when you're supposed to win that game. It got the reaction of, 'OK, I'm on the bench, but we'll see next week'."
