Eden aims to make a point

-

EDEN Hazard believes Chelsea can lay down the challenge to their rivals for next season by completing a Premier League and FA Cup double this evening.

Antonio Conte will be seeking a double in his first season as head coach when the Premier League winners face Arsenal. Hazard hopes Chelsea will be ruthless and send a message that the Blues are the team to beat next season.

“It’s always important against Arsenal,” he said. “We just want to win games, we know that every year they have some injuries in Arsenal.

“I think it’s a good opportunit­y to put pressure on them and to all the opponents also.

“The last 10 years in Chelsea it was great. (But) Lampard is finished, Didier Drogba is finished, Ashley Cole, John Terry now. They won a lot of trophies, now it’s like a new generation.

“We want to prove that the club is one of the best in the world. So we have to be ready for that.”
