Chelsea forward Eden Hazard believes that his team haven't had a "bad start" to the season, in spite of a 1-1 draw against Manchester City yesterday.

The Pensioners were held by a ten-man Sky Blues team,as midfielder Frank Lampard scored against his former side to make the league leaders surrender their first points this season at the Etihad Stadium.




Hazard though believes that the result doesn't signify anything serious for his team as they still sit comfortably at the top of the table with four wins in five matches.

He also praised the way his team performed as a unit, as they have been doing throughout the season.

"We defended well though and then we scored another good team goal, which we have been doing a lot this season", Hazard told his club's official site.

"We need to continue like that and keep working hard.

"We stay first in the league, too. Five matches played: four wins and a draw – it’s not a bad start."

The Belgian also took time to praise Chelsea's "class players", who he believes need no explanation about playing football.

"We have many class players here and you don’t have to explain football to them.

"We understand each other well on the pitch and the goal showed that."
