Eden Hazard has hailed his teammate Olivier Giroud labelling him as the best target man in the world.
Hazard has been excellent so far as he has lit up the Premier League with his usual attacking antics. The Belgian international has already netted five goals including a brilliant hat-trick against Cardiff City.
The Belgian seems to have found his old rhythm back and has emerged as the favourite contender for the golden boot award. On the other side, Giroud is still searching for his first goal this season but the French international has already set up three goals to make his mark.
Sarri decided to give Giroud a start against the newly promoted side and the move paid off as the talismanic striker used his ball shielding quality quite brilliantly to feed hazard with two delightful balls.
Hazard said, “He’s a targetman, maybe the best in the world. I think so. When he gets the ball, he can hold it and we can go with him.
“For us, he’s a player to play with. When Alvaro was playing it is completely different, he’s a different player with different qualities, and it’s good to have two good strikers in the team.”
“We know, especially after the break, it’s always hard to play well. But we got three points, that’s what’s important. We can play, we should play better, but we scored four goals and it’s a good game for us.”
