Eden Hazard: Why Twitter thinks he is better than Suarez and Aguero

Eden Hazard lit up the Etihad last night, putting in a great display of direct running and dribbling to help Chelsea to a 1-0 win over Manchester City. The Belgian completed a staggering 11 take-ons, created two chances and even had time to help out at the other end with three defensive actions.

Here’s how Twitter reacted to the Chelsea winger’s display:

Eden Hazard best player on the pitch, by an absolute mile.

That’s the best half of football I’ve seen Eden Hazard play. Electric.

I don’t care what anyone says, Eden Hazard will win the Ballon D’Or one day. He’s only 21 and top class already. Will improve so much!

Eden Hazard is every bit as good as he thinks he is.

Luis Suarez is clearly hot favourite for Player of the Year but Eden Hazard has to be short in the betting. Brilliant seemingly without fail
