Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has insisted that he is not “too worried” about Eden Hazard’s lacklustre display in his side’s 3-0 win over Aston Villa on Saturday.
The Belgian international had a quiet game by his standards at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea cruised to a 3-0 win over the Villains, courtesy of goals from Oscar, Diego Costa and Willian.
However Mourinho, who feels Hazard had a good start to the season, explained that he will not dwell on a one-off poor performance from the winger.
“Eden Hazard started the season well, played good matches but had an isolated not good performance”, the manager told his club’s official site.
“But no dramas and I’m not too worried about it. It was not his day.”
