DBasia.news – Eden Hazard has the ability to invite compliments from his former Chelsea teammate, John Obi Mikel. But Mikel also highlighted the attitude of the Belgian winger during training. According to Mikel, in practice sessions, Hazard often showed his lazy attitude.
Mikel has had 11 career seasons at Stamford Bridge, including five of them with Hazard. The midfielder claimed to have been impressed with Hazard’s talents and abilities. However, if asked about the hard work during training, Hazard is at the bottom.
“He (Hazard) is an extraordinary talent. Maybe not as good as Lionel Messi, but he can do anything when the ball is in his feet,” Mikel told beIN Sports.
“He is lazy, does not like to train hard. When practicing, he just stands alone, like waiting for us to finish training. But on weekends, he is always the man of the match. Amazing,” added Mikel, who now plays in Turkey with Trabzonspor .
Instead, Mikel revealed the Chelsea player who worked the hardest in his era. “Frank Lampard,” he answered without hesitation. Currently, Lampard is the manager of the Blues and shows promising progress in the English Premier League.
As for Hazard, he left for Real Madrid last summer. However, Hazard had
a slow start at the Santiago Bernabeu due to injuries and a weight problem
where he has only scored one goal in 11 matches.
