‘Hazard still not at his best’ – Zola expecting even more from Chelsea talisman

The Belgium international has enjoyed a stunning start to the 2018-19 season but a Blues legend, who is now a coach, believes he can get even better

Eden Hazard is “still not at his best”, according to Gianfranco Zola, with Chelsea convinced that there is even more to come from a player enjoying a stunning run of form.

The Belgium international was eased into the 2018-19 campaign by new Blues boss Maurizio Sarri on the back of a hectic World Cup summer with his country.

That approach has delivered rich rewards, with Hazard having already contributed five goals and two assists to the Chelsea cause.
