Ex-Genk chief Vanhaezebrouck: Chelsea winger Hazard not that good

Former RacingGenk youth chief Hein Vanhaezebrouck has questioned the overall game of Chelsea star Eden Hazard.

Vanhaezebrouck actually rates Chelsea teammate Kevin de Bruyne as the better player.

"He may be able to beat a defender or two and score from close, but he finds it more difficult from a distance," he said.

"He plays almost never diagonally, his understanding is limited to the short space and also he doesn't work hard off the ball."
