Eden Hazard gave Chelsea's title hopes a massive boost with a fifth-minute opener Tuesday versus Southampton, and in doing so scored his 15th Premier League goal of the season, his best in a Blues kit.
After bagging 14 tallies in each of his first two campaigns with the club before last season's four-goal letdown, Hazard's 15 are currently good enough for eighth-best in England's top flight.
