Hazard - Chelsea can do magic with 'Sarriball'

By Harry Morgan

Eden Hazard feels inspired by new manager, Maurizio Sarri's, tactical system, and says Chelsea can do 'magic' with it this season.

The wing-forward believes Sarri's demand for short and quick passes in a high pressing possessive system-the Italian's trademark system called Sarriball- would bring the best out of the squad.

Chelsea have enjoyed a good start to the 2018/19 season under Sarri, beating Arsenal 3-2 at Stanford Bridge Saturday after a 3-0 win at Huddersfield Town in the opening day fixture.

"He wants us to have control of the ball, and that's very good", Hazard said in a postmatch interview Saturday. "I want to play, and have the ball under my feet. I know we have good players and can do some magic with this approach."
