'Kante plays like two men!' - Hazard praises 'fantastic' Chelsea team-mate

Eden Hazard says N'Golo Kante is so good he often feels as though there are two of him playing for Chelsea!

Chelsea are the anti-Arsenal

Kante joined the Blues from Leicester City for a fee in the region of £30 million in the summer and has since thrived at Stamford Bridge, playing in all but one of Chelsea's Premier League games thus far this term.

Antonio Conte's men are currently 10 points clear of second-placed Tottenham following their 2-1 win over West Ham United on Monday, and Hazard has hailed the Frenchman, insisting that he feels as though he does the work of two men in the centre of the pitch.

"I think sometimes when I'm on the pitch I see him twice," Hazard told Chelsea TV. "One on the left, one on the right. I think I'm playing with twins!

"He's a fantastic player and helps the team a lot so we are happy to have him in the team."

Chelsea face Manchester United in their FA Cup quarter-final on Monday, before returning to Premier League action against Stoke City.
