I always wonder what can Hazard become if he has Ronaldo's work ethics and dedication.
Jose Mourinho and others had said this before that Hazard was awful in training.
“When he gets onto the pitch you don’t see the reflection of a week of work, you just see a reflection of his talent.....But in terms of his fitness, his speed, his condition, he would be a much better player [if he trained properly]. What you see is just the talent that got Eden to where he is."
John Obi Mikel, his former teammate at Chelsea, chipped in with his opinion in comments carried by
Diario AS. “When we were training, he’d stand and wait for us until we finished,” he said. “He was the laziest player, but then on Sundays he was always the best in the game. He was incredible.
“He sometimes said ‘yes, I want to be so good, I can be. Not as good as Messi because he’s from another planet, but I think I can be close to Cristiano and even better’. Those were the words that came out of his mouth, but he’s not that dedicated. He doesn’t train well. He’s the worst trainer I’ve ever played with.”
