Diego Costa led the line for Chelsea for the past three seasons and was phenomenal in his job before moving to Atletico Madrid.

Chelsea signed Alvaro Morata from Real Madrid in his stead and the summer signing has started the season well, having scored six goals in eight Premier League games so far this season.

Chelsea star Eden Hazard has revealed that he’s beginning to have a good understanding with Morata just like he did with Costa.

In Chelsea’s weekly newsletter, Hazard explained: “He’s a top striker. When good players play together, they don’t need to train two years.

“When we are on the pitch, we can see the movements he does and his technical ability is good so, with Alvaro – and, before, with Diego as well – it’s good.

“I try to have a good connection with my striker because, in my position, it’s good to have this player who is like a target man, so I need a good connection with him.”
