Chelsea have made below-par start in EPL: Hazard

Sentinel Digital Desk

Paris, Sep 3: Chelsea star winger Eden Hazard admitted on Thursday that the English football club has made a below-par start to the campaign, winning only one of four Premier League matches played so far.

"Individually and collectively, we are not at the same level," Efe quoted the Belgian intertiol as saying during his tiol team camp in preparations for the Bosnia and Herzegovi tie at the EURO 2016 championship qualifiers.

However, Hazard hopes that the intertiol break can help him regain his form.

The former Lille player, 24, who was voted best player in the last season, accepted the criticism from head coach Jose Mourinho for his poor performance. "I accept his criticism; it is clear. You don't need to be a football expert to understand that my level has dropped from last season," he explained.

However, he insisted that this is a problem that affects the whole team, not just him.

Chelsea have four points from four EPL games compared to 12 points of leaders Manchester City. IANS
