A sublime performance from Eden Hazard solved Chelsea’s recent scoring problems in their first victory this year conjuring two goals in a 4-0 win away to Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday. As a result, Chelsea coach Conte had little option but to start with a front three led by Michy Batshuayi flanked by Hazard and Willian. There was even worse to come for Brighton fewer than three minutes later when Dunk’s misplaced pass handed Chelsea possession near the halfway line. Willian collected the loose ball, found Hazard, and continued his run towards the edge of the box were he collected a return after neat flicks from Hazard and Batshuayi before firing past Ryan. With Tomer Hemed and Markus Suttner both wasting good headed chances, Brighton’s hopes dimmed, particularly as Hazard looked threatening every time he pressed forward.
