#4 Eden Hazard was on a different planet

Was there any stopping him?
Was there any stopping him?

Let's take a moment to close our eyes and count the number of times Eden Hazard made the Huddersfield players look like practice cones. Every time he picked up the ball down that left side or in midfield, you knew he would maul the opposition players.

He did, indeed, dropping his shoulders repeatedly, playing one-twos with Higuain, completing take-ons for fun, exhibiting tricks and flicks and scoring a fine brace and what not! He was absolutely on fire.

The Belgian had to respond in this high-pressure encounter for Chelsea and he did so by leading from the front. He pulled the strings, orchestrated the flow of proceedings and made the yellow shirts dance to his rhythmic football.

The more we speak, the more it seems like there is left. He picked up a man of the match performance, which was arguably an understatement to his display.
