2 – HAZARD AND COSTA BACK ONSIDE.
It appeared in Jose Mourinho’s last season with Chelsea, neither Eden Hazard or Diego Costa were enjoying their football anymore.
Both seemed to struggle in an abysmal season for Chelsea that saw them slip down the table all the way to 10th.
Costa struggled to score, and Hazard struggled to produce the sort of magic that has helped his side on numerous occasions.
Many felt that this meant for certain, we would see one, or both, of the Chelsea stars leave – but once again, Antonio Conte stepped in with completely different ideas.
Both have seemed much happier under the Italian, and despite reports surfacing all throughout the season that suggested otherwise, both players kept their heads down.
Costa was subject to speculation on a move to China, and while that saga does not seem to yet be done, both players focused on the task at hand – winning the silverware.
Only time will tell if this will last, but judging by Friday nights’ celebrations, both Hazard and Costa look very happy at Stamford Bridge.
