Everton vs Chelsea: 5 Key Talking Points

#1 How long until the fax machine calls out for Hazard?

Hazard is undeniably one of the best in the Premier League

Eden Hazard has been Chelsea's most influential player for quite a while now and the Belgian is showing no signs of stopping with every passing week. If you set aside that disastrous 2015/16 campaign under Jose Mourinho, Hazard has been dominating opposition defenders at will every time he has stepped out to play.

The 26-year-old is slowly approaching the peak of his career and it will be interesting to see how long Chelsea can keep hold of their star man. With Real Madrid already believed to be in the race for Hazard, it will be in Chelsea's best interests to tie him down to a massive contract and build a formidable side around him.

If recent performances are anything to go by, it is as clear as a crystal that the Los Blancos will step up their pursuit for the winger soon. Chelsea, on the other hand, should focus on providing him with whatever he wants to stay in London, like literally!
