Burnley boss Dyche: Chelsea ace Hazard still improving

Burnley boss Sean Dyche knows they face a battle trying to keep quiet Chelsea ace Eden Hazard tomorrow.

Dyche is understandably wary of the threat posed by Hazard as they prepare to welcome Chelsea to Turf Moor on Sunday.

“He continues to improve I think and he's continued to show that again this season. I think he's shown his flexibility as a player, under different managers as well. I think most managers would like to have the chance to fit him in their side.

“He is a top player. But you can pick out top players in all the teams in the Premier League, but particularly the top sides.

“The real big sides don't just have one, trust me. Chelsea are a fine outfit you saw that last night [in the Europa League vs BATE Borisov] they made eight changes and you saw what happened, still a very, very strong outfit.

“We certainly don't rely on what might happen with one player but you've got to be aware of how good some of those players are and he's certainly right up there."
