Arsenal Vs Chelsea: Combined Starting Eleven

Eden Hazard

I am going to save this page so that any time I am ever accused of being biased, I can cite it. I let Eden ‘The Ghost’ Hazard push Alexis over to the right side and I even let him start over the Premier League assist king, Alex Iwobi.

Do I feel good about myself? Not in the slightest. But something tells me I’ll get my just deserts soon.

Hazard had to be frustrating to watch last year from a Chelsea standpoint (he was glorious from my standpoint). This man is incredibly talented, yet absolutely nothing came off for the Belgian as Chelsea sputtered to their mid-table finish.

This year, he has looked revitalized and back to where he had been prior to the dismal 2015/16 season. That bodes ill for all of Chelsea’s rivals. When he is clicking, there are few who do it better than Hazard.

Speaking of just deserts, let’s get to striker.
