Chelsea legend Hazard: Tottenham can never win the league

Former Chelsea winger Eden Hazard has laid into his old rivals, saying they are not good enough to win the league.

While Tottenham are much improved under Ange Postecoglou this term, Hazard is not impressed just yet.

Speaking on former team-mate John Obi Mikel's Obi One Podcast, Hazard said: “The Premier League is so hard and you see now Man City they are better than Chelsea, you see Liverpool they are better than Chelsea.

Mikel then questioned Hazard, saying: “Tottenham?"

The winger then replied “No, no, Tottenham, no," while laughing at the same time.

Mikel added: “But right now they are playing a bit better, they are like third or fourth in the league."

Hazard similarly replied: “They play good football but you know as a Chelsea legend you also can't say that man. That's for sure [they won't win the league].

“As a Chelsea fan you want Chelsea to be the best but it's so hard, big change in last two-years in the team not just in players but owner changing, new story of Chelsea and as a fan we have to push to follow them."
