Olivier Giroud has spoken of working with Eden Hazard at Chelsea.
Giroud had come up against Hazard on a number of occasions prior to his £18million switch, but he was stunned by his ability to keep hold of the ball after witnessing him up close at the club's Cobham training base.
"When I discover Eden Hazard in training for my first session at Chelsea. I told myself: 'F***ing hell, it's hard to get the ball off him'," Giroud told Le Figaro.
"Sometimes, there's two or three players around him and he still manages to get out in tight spaces.
"He's a magician, he's impressive. Now, I've started to know him and I don't find myself near him. It's better for him and for me."
