PFA Player of the Year: Did N’Golo Kante really deserve the award?

2) Eden Hazard

Eden Hazard has drawn comparisons to Lionel Messi in recent years. Although these claims are definitely exaggerated, this season the Belgian has returned to his best form and he is unlucky to have not been given the PFA Player of the Year award.

Collectively, Chelsea have been a tremendous team this year, but time after time Hazard has been their brightest spark in attack.

He alone decides games and it is no surprise that his performances have coincided with Chelsea’s fortunes. Last season, he was extremely poor and Chelsea struggled massively. This year, he has been superb and his team have been unstoppable.

In total, Hazard has scored 15 goals in 31 games, and looks set to enjoy his most prolific campaign in front of goal in a Chelsea shirt. He has also recorded a further five assists.

However, despite having a terrific personal season, Chelsea have been successful due to collective performances. As a result, this means that only one man truly deserves the award…
