Chelsea star is the most creative star in the Premier League – but it’s not Eden Hazard

CHELSEA boast the most creative player in the top flight this season, but it’s not their main man.

Chelsea have made a terrific start to life under Maurizio Sarri as they remain unbeaten in the Premier League thanks to airtight defending.

However, while keeping clean sheets has played a big part in the Blues’ early surge, Eden Hazard’s sensational form has inspired his side to great success so far.

The Chelsea hero has been a terrific source of goals and assists this season, but in the list of creative players across the whole league, he ranks behind a surprise team-mate.

According to stats from WhoScored.com, one Blues star has made the most key passes in 2018/19 so far.

Manchester City maestro David Silva has to settle for second place, while Hazard is sitting in fourth.

City team-mate Bernardo Silva is also included, while Liverpool ace Mohamed Salah has just climbed into the top 10.

Chelsea will need their entire squad to pull together if they are to maintain their title push, with one player seemingly not short on ammunition for the strikers ahead of him.
