Eden Hazard impressed against the Latics

Chelsea new boy Eden Hazard has earmarked certain areas of his game where he needs to improve.

The Belgian made his Premier League debut against Wigan and set up Branislav Ivanovic as well as winning the penalty where Frank Lampard scored.

But despite this he wants to improve on his ball retention.

“There are still a lot of things I can do better,” he said.

“I lost a lot of balls in the second half, but I contributed what was asked of me. I was asked to be decisive and I was, with the penalty and an assist.”

The playmaker was pleased with the way he linked up with Juan Mata before he was withdrawn for Oscar.

“I started as the number 10 and then afterwards with Mata, we tried to interchange positions rather than stay in the same place and I think we worked rather well,” he added.

“Oscar has just arrived and we haven’t had the time to work together. We have only had one training session so far but, little by little, we should get things to where they should be.

“There are loads of possibilities. Ryan Bertrand was on the left against Wigan and Daniel Sturridge can play there as well and the coach won’t hesitate.

“He will just put the best players on the pitch. Our preparation was very good. Physically speaking, I feel impeccable.”
