Liverpool and Man City Our Title Rivals – Eden Hazard Writes Off Arsenal
Victor Moses (L) tries to hold off Mousa Dembele at Stamford Bridge in London on November 26, 2016.
Chelsea, who are now one point above Liverpool, travel to third-placed Manchester City on Saturday.
Writing off Arsenal as contenders, Hazard, when asked who Chelsea’s title rivals are, was quoted as saying by beIN Sports: “Man City and Liverpool”. They started very well with a great intensity, with a lot of pressure when we had the ball.
“We have another type of confidence”. We have to wait to speak – not to write things – and it is important to stay humble.
“Now we are a different team to two months ago”.
There is no doubt that Chelsea and Liverpool have been the most impressive teams this season, while City have also looked unplayable at times. Chelsea’s manager Antonio Conte: “I am satisfied with the way we fought back”.
But Chelsea equalize just before the break.
With 52 minutes on the clock, Eden Hazard played Diego Costa brilliantly through on the left, where the Spaniard sliced a cutting low cross through the front of goal for Victor Moses, who tapped in the winning goal. I’m going to give the players all the credit today.
“If someone thinks the fault is the players – no, the fault is mine, always”.
“I see the will to change something from the past, now it’s important to continue”, he added.
Chelsea fans will have a lot to say about this and rightly so.
“No worry, no concern about nothing”, he told reporters. You can buy football tickets for the game online at our partner site. The effort was brilliant.
“It’s been a very mixed week for me”, said the youngster. It’s good for Belgium that two players are fighting for the title in England, but I hope when we go to the national team we don’t fight!
His role now involves taking a greater defensive responsibility and Barcelona are understood to view him as one of the best right-back options in Europe at present. I can understand that.
