All rosy for Chelsea as Eden Hazard gets back on form

Chelsea 3 Burnley 0: Eden Hazard’s revival at Chelsea looks set to be as quick, dramatic and unfathomable as his fall from grace last season after a performance at the weekend which hinted he is almost back to his very best.

The Belgian winger’s transformation last season from England’s vibrant, confident footballer of the year to a sulky, misfiring and distracted performer accused of helping get Jose Mourinho the sack was part of a mystery which gripped football and baffled most onlookers.

It may take an autobiography of some kind in future to finally reveal the inside track — but new Chelsea manager Antonio Conte appears to have found a way to put the past to bed.
