Hazard's goals saw him become a Chelsea centurion, becoming the club's 10th highest goal-scorer, and he hinted there's more to come.

On his goals, Hazard said: "They mean a lot... especially as we won today. One-hundred-and-one goals with this amazing club and something I'll never forget.
"But now we want more. We want to score and I want to score more goals and be a legend like Frank Lampard, John Terry, Didier Drogba."

Hazard has been deployed as a false nine by his new Italian boss, with four goals and two assists in his last four Prem games in the position.
