Goals Scored - 7

Hazard fans, look away! The Belgian has now failed to score in his last 5 games in the Premier League and seems to be losing his way in Sarri's system. He has not scored since the start of October now and that will be a big concern for his manager. Chelsea's unbeaten run in the Premier League is gone and as of now, all is not well for Eden Hazard.

His recent barren run has seen him drop 4 places from 1st to 5th now and unless the Belgian pulls up his socks and gets going, he might lose more ground to the men ahead of him. Salah has already caught up with him, something that looked unlikely at the start of the season when both were on contrasting form.

Hazard currently has 7 goals from 13 games, once again a better goals per game ratio keeping him ahead of the competition. He has recorded 36 shots so far, with 16 of those on target. The Belgian is currently 5th in the race to the Golden Boot at the start of December.
