During his seven-year stay at Chelsea, Hazard—then referred to by Jamie Carragher as a “absolute superstar”—became one of the greatest Premier League players of all time.
The great Belgian made 352 appearances for the team and contributed to 202 goals, scoring 85 of them in the top division.
Hazard produced countless moments of brilliance at Chelsea thanks to his extraordinary speed, quick changes of direction, and unmatched agility in possession. He also became one of the continent’s hottest commodities thanks to his ability to score a variety of otherworldly solo goals, specifically against Arsenal in 2017, Liverpool in 2018, and West Ham in 2019.
Although the Englishman is currently struggling with his own personal issues, his performances have mainly gone under the radar. He is as quick-footed as Hazard, but he only has nine goals in 58 games in the Premier League, which is terrible.
Jurgen Klopp described the 126-cap Belgian international as a “special player” after that superb individual slaloming run and finish against Liverpool in the Carabao Cup, and the legacy he left behind at Chelsea proves that the German was correct with his glowing admission of the player.

When the stakes were high, Hazard could deliver the extraordinary, and his amazing goal against Tottenham in 2016 was remembered for more than just the goal itself since he single-handedly kept Spurs from winning the Premier League.
The 5 foot 8 wizard was nearly hard to stop when in full swing thanks to his explosiveness, power, and accuracy on the ball, and that’s what made him such fun to watch as he eventually joined Real Madrid in a stunning deal worth up to £150 million.
After watching their £73 million acquisition of Jadon Sancho fail, United supporters can only dream of having a player like Hazard today. Hazard has continued to show why Ferguson was so eager to get him.
