Dream Chelsea XI: Zola names five current Premier League champions, including Eden Hazard and record-breaking captain

Eden Hazard

“If he keeps going at the rate he is he will be talked about like some of the other players in this team – although he’ll have to do it for a few years! Eden’s best quality is a one-versus-one situation.

“That comes from the power in his legs. He’s very explosive and that allows him to always have an extra yard on the opposition.”

Didier Drogba

“Another one who has to be in. I would have loved to have played with him. When he first arrived, he was perfect for the way Jose Mourinho was playing at the time. You had the big striker, with Arjen Robben and Damien Duff on the wings – it was ideal.

“He had the physical presence, he could bully anyone. Unstoppable. He could handle one or two defenders and still score. He also had real personality.”

Arjen Robben

“I’m going for a 4-3-3. When he was fit, he was simply unstoppable. He was the equivalent of Eden Hazard now. He was quick, strong, he could score goals.

“On his day, defenders had no chance to stop him. Again, like Didier, he was perfect for the way Mourinho was playing.”
