Chelsea winger Eden Hazard believes that the Blues 5-0 thrashing of Huddersfield Town will boost the team’s confidence ahead of their clash against Manchester City next Sunday.
Hazard scored twice as Chelsea bounced back to winning ways following consecutive losses to Arsenal and Bournemouth.
“I always say when we lose a game, we need to win the game after and we did well today,” Hazard said during his post-match interview.
“We played one of the best games of our season and scored five great goals.
The fans were not happy on Wednesday and now they are so we are happy. We want to keep playing like this
“I think he (Sarri) will be happy because he wanted a reaction from us and we gave him one.”
The Belgian captain also backed Gonzalo Higuain to deliver after the Argentine forward hit a brace in his third appearance for the club.
“We try to work with each other, Higuain is a new player but he knows what the manager wants. He is a great striker and he can score a lot of goals.
“England is different than Italy and Spain but he has that ability. If Giroud or I play as a striker we always try and help each other,” he said.
“After this game, our confidence is better than two days ago but we play the champions (Manchester City) so we know it will be difficult. We beat them at Stamford Bridge so why not again?”
