'He can take the ball from his house, arrive at Stamford Bridge and score': Thierry Henry names Chelsea player he 'admired'

Speaking on Sky Sports, Arsenal legend Thierry Henry said: “One of the most that I admired in this league, Eden Hazard was just a joke.

“He can take the ball from his house and just arrive at the Bridge and score, running past everybody. Tactics have nothing to do with that. He was a joy to watch.”

The Belgian won two Premier League titles, the FA Cup and the League Cup, as well as two Europa League titles during seven years at Chelsea.

He left the Blues in 2019 for Real Madrid and retired last summer. But his legacy lives on, with even Chelsea's arch-rivals such as Henry praising Eden.
