My Take
Eden Hazard is one of those players I judge by joy rather than trophies. At his Chelsea peak he was, for my money, the most entertaining dribbler in Europe: low center of gravity, impossible balance, defenders bouncing off a 175 cm frame. The Real Madrid years were unkind, and injuries blunted what should have been his prime, but I refuse to let the ending rewrite the story. He won the PFA Players' Player of the Year in 2015 playing with a visible smile, and footballers who make the game look like play are rarer than goalscorers. History should be kinder to him.
