Eden Hazard has admitted that no one at Chelsea wants Tottenham to win the Premier League
The Belgian scored his first league goals of the season in a 4-1 win at Bournemouth on Saturday
Hazard
said: 'We don't want - the fans, the club, the players - Tottenham to
win the Premier League, but in football you never know.
'We hope for Leicester because they deserve to be champions this season, but we will see.
'We have a good game next week against Tottenham, if we can beat them it will be good.'
Match of the Day pundit and Sportsmail columnist Martin Keown felt the comment from the 25-year-old was ill-advised.
Speaking
to presenter Mark Chapman the former Arsenal centre-back said: 'The
Tottenham players are probably listening to that right now and it's
goading them a little bit, but they might say: "Where has Eden Hazard
been all season?"'
Fellow pundit Ruud Gullit added: 'I can understand it, but don't say it.'

Former Chelsea boss Ruud Gullit said he could understand Hazard's comments but wouldn't have said them
