Several Chelsea players are in contention for the PFA Player of the Year award with Eden Hazard, N’Golo Kante and Diego Costa all favourites to win the award.

“It’s going to be tough,” said Alonso when asked who will win the PFA Player of the Year.

“Diego [Costa], Eden [Hazard], they are having great seasons, scoring so many goals, tough choice that.

“I’m very happy for that.

“Everyone tries to give 100 per cent for the team. If you can help with goals or assists, then it’s even more important.

‘That’s all we try to do.

“It was a very good game from everyone and good to go back to London with three points.”

Chelsea’s next fixture is a trip to Old Trafford to face Mourinho’s Manchester United.
