Chelsea star Eden Hazard has admitted that it is a "pleasure" to play in the same side as Didier Drogba.

The Belgian international, who has arguably been the Blues' standout player this term, selected his club-mate as part of what he believes to be a dream five-a-side team.

Hazard also selected Arsenal flop Gervinho in his list, along with Demba Ba, Juan Mata, Thibaut Courtois and Drogba.

Explaining his selection, the 24-year-old is quoted by ESPN as saying: "I have a lot of respect for Didier. I saw a lot of his games before I came to Chelsea and he was one of the top players. It's a pleasure to be his teammate now.

"I know I don't have any defenders in my team, but when do you think the opponent will get the ball? They are not getting the ball, but even if they do then I have Thibaut there to stop them."

Hazard has appeared for Chelsea 43 times this season, scoring 16 goals to help the club on their way to the Premier League summit.
