Everton 2-0 Chelsea: 3 reasons why the Blues lost against the Toffees| Premier League 2018-19

#3. Chelsea too dependent on Hazard.

What if Hazard leaves for Real Madrid in the summer? The chances are pretty high and Chelsea's level is bound to drop if it were to happen. Hazard was the only creative force for Chelsea and he played really well. It was one of those days when his creativity did not yield any positive result for his side.

Silva set up his Everton side to choke Chelsea and give them little space to operate, but Hazard still found spaces on his own and lead the line for Chelsea. His effort which hit the woodwork could have given Chelsea a much-needed goal, which could have then changed the complexion of the match.

Hazard looked extremely sharp and it seemed he was auditioning for Real Madrid. Los Blancos boss Zinedine Zidane would have watched the Belgian's performance and could think that Hazard is the missing piece to Real Madrid's puzzle.
