Chelsea boss Frank Lampard took the ambassadorial approach and played down comparisons between former Blues great player Eden Hazard and American Christian Pulisic after the young winger\u2019s impressive display in the 3-0 win over Watford.<\/p>\n
Pulisic secured his second penalty in two games in the routine home win, and has also scored twice in three-and-a-half appearances since football returned after the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t want to get involved in that too much,\u201d Lampard told Sky Sports when asked about the similarity with Hazard, who left Chelsea for Real Madrid last summer.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut they can both go by players and are great to watch<\/p>\n
\u201cEden was sensational here with his input into the club winning trophies.<\/p>\n
\u201cChristian is showing a real natural ability and a balance and a speed to dribble with the ball.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe next step for him is more the end product; more goals, more assists. But in this restart he has already shown that.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe has had injury problems this season but he is a really good one so I am really happy with him.\u201d<\/p>\n
