Kante and Hazard
Hazard said that he has been impressed with Kante’s energy while acting as cover in midfield and defence when the Blues are back tracking.
Hazard told Chelsea TV: “He gives us confidence. We want to try to dribble and to pass the opponent because we know even if we try but don’t pass the opponent and if we lose the ball then he is there behind us, he can take the ball.
“He is a fantastic player. He is a like a rat, he goes everywhere and he has a top mentality and is a top guy. It is always good to play with the top players.”
Kante has played 90 minutes in all Chelsea’s three Premier League matches so far this season as Antonio Conte’s side have ganered maximum points in the new campaign.
