In tactics and training, we do more with Conte. We work a lot of tactical positions, and we know exactly what we have to do on the pitch, where I have to go, and where the defenders have to go. We know exactly what to do. – Eden Hazard
For a young player like me, it is good to play for a club that can get to the semi-finals because one of the reasons I play football is for these big games. – Eden Hazard
The Champions League is the one thing missing from my career. When I look at the history of the competition and the people that have taken part, the top, top players have all won it. For many, it is why they have been regarded as top players. – Eden Hazard
Individually, I am very happy because I can play in every game. I can be on the pitch and do what I like to do, which is play football. – Eden Hazard

I am happy with my form; I just need to score a couple of goals. I want the ball. I want to create something. – Eden Hazard
The more you play against teams and defenders, the more you get to know them. You know if they are more nervous; you know, on the pitch, people are different. I try to adapt to their character. – Eden Hazard
I played with Michy for Belgium. He is still young; he can finish and is very good. He just needs to adapt to English football, and he will. He is intelligent and a good player. – Eden Hazard

These days, I’m always trying to have lots of touches, to be involved, and to play my football for 90 minutes. – Eden Hazard
Jose Mourinho and I get along well. I’ve lots of respect for him. He gives me a lot of confidence. After a bad game, he dares to say, ‘We have played with 10 today,’ but that’s it. At moments like that, he leaves me alone. – Eden Hazard

I’m not a top-five player yet. Maybe I’m close to it, but I still have to work on some aspects. You can only be part of that group if you are decisive in the top games. – Eden Hazard

I don’t need to speak about N’Golo; everyone knows about him. He’s everywhere. I think, sometimes when I’m on the pitch, I see him twice. One on the left, one on the right. I think I’m playing with twins! – Eden Hazard
