Chelsea playmaker Eden Hazard has hailed the impact of new coach Antonio Conte after talking up the Italian's ability to understand his players.
Belgian international Hazard was one of many under-performers during the Blues' torrid campaign last season, which saw former boss Jose Mourinho lose his job in December after a memorable run of poor results.
Conte was introduced to Stamford Bridge during the summer and Hazard has been quick to highlight the manager's adaptability to the Premier League.
"Conte puts trust in his players and now we are good after an ugly season last year," said Hazard, according to the Daily Mail.
"I've always been the same player but Conte knows how to treat players having played at the highest level himself."
Chelsea have won each of their three Premier League fixtures so far this season.
