Eden Hazard has long dazzled us with his ability to pull a rabbit out of his hat. So much so that he has become the face of a team of Chelsea’s stature. He has been there and about the cream of the footballing crop because of this very ability to conjure, to make something out of nothing. He has been the spearhead of the Blues contingent for three seasons now, because of this very ability. That ability has never been in question, the promise to live up to it has. Has this question been answered? It has, hitherto. Which is why I am writing, and you are reading a piece that mentions him in the same breath as Lionel Messi. Whether or not Eden Hazard is the Messi of the Premier League is a question, not of notable importance, to Eden, at least. A better question to ask would be if Eden is the Hazard of the Premier League, with three more brothers- one whom Eden claims is better than him- waiting to take the world by storm. But that question is not upon us yet, and will not be upon us for a few years to come. Therefore let us content ourselves with discussions of Eden- recipient of the PFA Young Player of the year 2014. Eden is a thorn in the face of any opposition, a menace to defenders and goalkeepers alike, a threat to Messi’s crown, and if the present is any indication of the future, instead of discussing whether Hazard is the Messi of the Premier League,three years from now, we could be deliberating over whether another player can hold a candle to the Hazard that is Eden.
