Chelsea are aiming to become the first team since Manchester United in 2009 to retain the prestigious prize.

The Blues have secured recent victories over Tottenham and Everton after a nightmare 3-2 defeat to Burnley on the opening day of the new campaign.

And Eden Hazard says there is not just one sole team capable of winning the title this season.

“It's not just one team, I think all of the teams have got really good players: Arsenal, Manchester United, Liverpool, Man City and good managers as well. So we will see,” he told the Daily Mail.

The Belgium international also thinks anyone can beat anyone in the English top flight.

“Yes, I think 10 years ago it was 1-2 teams that were really good but now we have 7-8 strong teams who have got top players and anyone can beat anyone,” he added.

“Even a smaller club, and I say a "small club" but they are not small clubs any more, can beat the champions and can beat the top teams so every game is important. 

“That's why the Premier League is a really difficult league to win and perhaps the most interesting league in the world to follow.”

Manchester United, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester City have all endured contrasting starts to the new campaign.

United, Liverpool and City remain unbeaten - though Jose Mourinho’s side have garnered maximum points from their first three games.

Arsenal, however, are stuck in a rut after back-to-back defeats to Stoke and Liverpool.

Tottenham, meanwhile, have managed to scoop just four points from their first three outings.
