Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has claimed that Eden Hazard should be a certainty to be named PFA Players' Player of the Year this season.

Hazard has been a key man throughout the campaign for the Premier League leaders, and Mourinho believes that no other player's achievements compare with what the Belgian has produced for his side.

"I think what he's doing, speaking in a very honest way, it shouldn't even be a debate," the Chelsea boss told reporters ahead of Sunday's meeting with Queens Park Rangers.

"If somebody throws other names on the table, it's because he wants to sell papers, wants to throw some sand into people's eyes, because this player is by far the best player in the Premier League all season."

Hazard has scored 12 goals in 30 Premier League appearances this season.
