Hazard scored a hat-trick against Cardiff on Saturday.

Eden Hazard has hailed Chelsea team-mate Olivier Giroud as the world's best target man.

World Cup-winning striker Giroud laid on two goals for Hazard as the Belgium playmaker bagged a hat-trick in the Blues' 4-1 rout of Cardiff at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Giroud is yet to find the net for Chelsea this season but already has three assists in five Premier League games, with the Blues boasting a 100 per cent league return under new head coach Maurizio Sarri.

Hazard has found the net five times in as many league matches, and is brimming with confidence after Sarri told him to chase 40 goals this season.

"So, we have a lot of good players, and at the moment we are in confidence, so we shoot, we score. We need to keep this momentum.

"We have a lot of freedom on the pitch, not just the three in front but all over the pitch, so when we are in this condition we just need to take the ball and try something, and at the moment something happens, so that is very good.

"When I'm on the pitch I'm just trying to create chances, score goals. A hat-trick comes with confidence, so I will try to do more of this."
