Alan Pardew will join Ian Dennis in Baku for live coverage of the Europa League final on BBC Radio 5 Live and the BBC Sport website on Wednesday from 18:30 BST. When you are managing Premier League footballers, you find out that there are not many other players they actually really, really fear and admire. But in my time at Newcastle, Crystal Palace or West Brom, I never heard any of my players saying that about Chelsea's Eden Hazard. It will be the same for Arsenal in Wednesday's Europa League final, which could be Hazard's final game for the Blues with Real Madrid favourites to sign him this summer. He can handle pressure too, and the treatment he gets from defenders in the Premier League.
