Eden Hazard put in one of the best individual performances of the season on Monday night past.

He terrorised West Ham’s defence for 90 minutes, scoring two excellent goals and carrying Chelsea to three important points. A very familiar story.

Hazard’s two goals brought his Premier League tally to 85, one more than a certain Cristiano Ronaldo. Now with the summer transfer window looming, it looks very likely that Hazard will follow in Ronaldo’s footsteps and pack his bags for Madrid.

There’s no denying that they are two of the greats of the Premier League era, but who will be remembered as the better player? Let’s take a look.
