Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj has saluted Chelsea duo Branislav Ivanovic and Eden Hazard.

Januzaj, who has locked horns with the duo on numerous occasions for Manchester United, was running through his list of the best passers, finishers, fittest players and tacklers that he has come up against in his career so far.




And both tough-tackling Serbia defender Ivanovic and Hazard, who Januzaj plays alongside at international level for Belgium, warranted mentions.

 


Asked by his club's site who the fittest player he has ever played against is, Januzaj replied: "Branislav Ivanovic of Chelsea. He's strong all round."

The Belgium winger was also questioned on who the best passer of a ball that he has played against is, and answered: "I'd say Eden Hazard."

However, not all Januzaj's answers were related to top flight opponents, with the winger surprisingly choosing the defenders at League Two side Cambridge United as those who have given him the toughest time; Manchester United played Cambridge United in the FA Cup earlier this season.

"Hard to pick [who were the toughest defenders]", he said.

"Cambridge's defenders were quite tough."
