With the quality that Hazard has got in his locker, Zidane can be tempted to use him in a more traditional number 10 position. Hazard's ability to pick a pass out of nowhere can be maximized by giving him the playmaker role in the team with Karim Benzema up ahead.

Given the trust Zidane has in Lucas Vazquez, the Frenchman can also manage to fit him in to the playing eleven with Vinicius Junior occupying his favorite position left wing position.

It will also provide Real Madrid the much-needed defensive stability with two pivots in the form of Casemiro and Toni Kroos, who can protect the back four. In short, the less defensive work Zidane and Madrid will imply on Hazard, the more Hazard can blossom in the famous white shirt.
