Hazard admits poor form but still confident of FA CUP

The Belgian was one of the Blues' key men last term as they won the Premier League.

• Reflecting on his form, Hazard said: "It's not been so good, no. I was injured at the start of the season and it was not easy to come back after that. I then played the first two months of the season really well, but when the team needed me in the game against Barca in the Champions League I didn't ­perform well."

• The Belgian also insisted that his mood is tied to Chelsea's results: "When we are not winning, I cannot be happy. We are fifth in the Premier League and we are out of the Champions League. We didn't win the League Cup. So it is a bad season. I can score 50 goals – but that isn't important. The most ­important thing in football is to win something for my team."

• However, Hazard is confident Chelsea can still finish the season on a high note: "Thankfully, we still have the FA Cup – and so I will give everything to win that trophy. I am frustrated with the results. I think we have played a lot of good games this season, but I'm not happy with how I have played overall. Now, I try to look forward and I will give everything in the next weeks. We will see."
