Rio Ferdinand:- "He is to Chelsea what Ronaldo was to us."

Eden Hazard has been praised as Chelsea's Cristiano Ronaldo. 

Former Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand admitted that Hazard has really shown a sign of great improvement in his skills and moves. 

“Of course, he is Chelsea’s ace, just like Cristiano was ours”

The former defender disclosed how Hazard left him "bamboozled" during his days as a player, telling The Times: “Playing against him, I discovered that when he received the ball, his conciousness of where people are was brilliant and his low centre of gravity meant he could roll people.

“Patrice Evra is small but used to physically dominate wingers because of his strength, speed and low centre of gravity. 

“But then he came up against Hazard and you were thinking, 'Wow, this kid — you don’t want to be coming up against him too much, Pat.'

“Pound for pound, Hazard was the same shape, strength and size and he was rolling Patrice inside and outside.”

The Chelsea's ace scored 15 goals and aided 5 assists in his 33 top flight appearances for Chelsea FC.
