Real Madrid target says he could play for Chelsea next season

However, Hazard’s self-admitted unselfishness is undoubtedly the most persuasive argument, with Real Madrid’s individually strong but cohesively weak lineup a significant factor in their troubles this campaign. Willian has found himself on the bench in four of Chelsea’s last five games, including the FA Cup final against United on Saturday.

That can still happen.

You can say what you want but I’m a serial victor, I’ve shown that in England a year ago, after a hard 10th-place finish, and I showed it today because we found the right way to lift this trophy.

Hazard was the catalyst for Chelsea’s eighth FA Cup victory as the Belgium playmaker produced a virtuoso performance capped by his 22nd-minute victor. It wasn’t easy but I’m very happy for our fans and my players.

United were awful in the first half and offered absolutely nothing.

Mourinho claimed on the eve of the game that he didn’t understand the media’s interpretation of “entertaining”.

Asked if they can challenge Manchester City in the Premier League next season, Hazard told the London Evening Standard: “Yes”.
