Eden Hazard has said that this Chelsea team is stronger than last seaon and feels that he is not relied on as much to score goals.
Mourinho’s team failed to win any silverware last season, and while he does not feel there will be as much pressure on him to score, Hazard accepts that he still has a responsibility to contribute and reckons playing alongside the likes of new signings Diego Costa and Cesc Fabregas will help him to improve.
“It’s true they’re the best players. Costa can score every game and Cesc is one of the best midfielders in the world,” said the Belgian in the Evening Standard.
“Cesc can score as well and make good assists, just like the first game against Burnley where he made a beautiful pass for Andre Schurrle. It’s very important for the team and he can help us win.
“Last season I scored a lot of goals and maybe this season I can make a lot more passes forward because Costa is one of the best and he can score. It’s my job to score but it’s also my job to make assists as well.
“I can now concentrate on assists. I’m ready to be better than last season. When I’m on the pitch, I try to give my best.
“The new players have settled in very good. I enjoy playing with the best players in the squad and I’m very happy.
“We have a very competitive team and we want more than last season. Last season we played good but we didn’t win any trophies so we want more.
“We can win four trophies and I hope we can compete in the two cups, the Premier League and Champions League for a long time throughout the year.”
