'Chelsea Hazard = Belgium Hazard!' - Former Blues star has got fans talking after superb assist

Eden Hazard may not be at Chelsea any more, but he still remains a popular figure among Blues supporters.

The Belgian ace left the Blues this summer to join Real Madrid in a big-money move, but has had a slow start to the new season with the La Liga giants, having had an injury in the early stages of the campaign.

But he has shown signs of finding form in recent weeks, with Hazard netting his first goal for Real Madrid in a 4-2 win against Granada last week in La Liga.

He has enjoyed the international break too, with Belgium securing their place at the European Championships next summer after an emphatic 9-0 win against San Marino on Thursday.

Belgium were back in action again this afternoon, taking on Kazakhstan in their latest qualifying group match.

And Hazard was influential as Belgium won 2-0 in Kazakhstan, with the former Chelsea star providing the assist for Thomas Meunier to add the second goal.

It was a sublime pass from Hazard, who broke free of an opponent near the halfway line, before floating a pass over the Kazakhstan defence for Meunier to run onto and finish.

Hazard's assist has got some fans talking, with Blues supporters speaking out on why they miss the Belgian, while some Real Madrid fans are hoping this is a sign of things to come from the 28-year-old.

Here's what some fans have been saying on social networking website, Twitter.
