Man United man: Chelsea star is the best in the Premier League

Adnan Januzaj has admitted that he has so much to learn from Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard.

Januzaj, who is currently on loan to Sunderland from Manchester United, knows Hazard well from playing in the Belgian national team with the playmaker.

The Manchester United man also admits to studying Hazard closely during his performances for Chelsea this season, and believes that the 26-year-old is the best player in the Premier League.

Januzaj is quoted as saying by The Sunderland Echo: “I can learn from him. He has more experience than me.

“When you are playing against Chelsea there are more players who can make a difference so it’s harder to track all of them.

“I watch a lot of games in the Premier League when I have free time and that’s where I learn.

“He is a good friend to me. He is a top player. Whenever he has the ball he is dangerous.

“He is one of the best players in the Premier League, if not the best, he has so much talent now and I know him well.”

Hazard has been in fine form for Chelsea this season and has scored 11 goals and made four assists in 26 Premier League games for the Blues so far this term to help them top the table.

The playmaker is currently sidelined with a calf injury but will be hoping to have recovered in time for Chelsea’s clash with Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge after the international break.

Chelsea are flying 10 points clear at the top of the Premier League table.
