Eden Hazard’s performance highlighted his importance to Chelsea and has demonstrated to the world, yet again, what he is capable of, by not only finishing off the two goals he scored, but also by contributing to both the third and fourth.
He also told the website that he was more than okay in allowing Chelsea legend, Didier Drogba, to take the first penalty kick (something that Mourinho recently revealed that he was unhappy about).
"‘He asked me if he could shoot and I said okay, no problem – you are the king, I can’t say no!’Source: chelseafc.com"
Now Chelsea face the challenge of remaining unbeaten in the Premier League by having to face the forceful and dynamic attack of Manchester United spearheaded by Angel Di Maria and Robin Van Persie, but first United will have to keep Chelsea’s attack away from the goal.
