Hazard delighted to have Mourinho as manager

Chelsea winger Eden Hazard has expressed his happiness at having Jose Mourinho as his manager.

The Portuguese coach made his return to Stamford Bridge in the summer of 2013, and the Belgium winger cited the former Real Madrid coach's sense of humour as one of the biggest reasons why he enjoys working with his boss.

He told Sky Sports News: "He is a very good man, He has worked all his life and it is a pleasure to have him as my manager.

"He's funny, on the training pitch, he is a funny guy, he is always making jokes. Sometimes you can see him look serious, but he is a funny guy.

"Last season was good [personally], just at the end, I was injured a little bit. We lost the Champions League semi-final [to Atletico Madrid] and I was very sad, and now I want to be better this season."

Chelsea have won both their Premier League games this season.
