Chelsea's 2-goal Eden Hazard: I'll play at centre-back if needed

Chelsea's two-goal Eden Hazard is happy playing as a striker after their win at Watford.

The goals took Hazard to the 100 landmark for the Blues.

Hazard told Sky Sports: "It means a lot, especially because we won today. 101 goals with this amazing club is something I will never forget but now the fans, staff and players want more. I want to score more for this club and then try to be a legend like Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba and John Terry."

On his position up front, he added: "I can even play at centre back. My target is to score goals and to try and win the game, as a winger or a striker. I missed a couple of chances today, especially in the first half, but I scored two so it's important to keep focus.

"We showed great character against Man City after defeat by Wolves, and today we did the same thing after a defeat to Leicester. When we fight together we are a top team."
