The Chelsea forward collected possession inside his own half and dribbled all the way into Arsenal’s box before beating Petr Cech in last month’s 3-1 victory at Stamford Bridge.

Hazard has 11 top-flight goals this season, having only scored four in all of the 2015-16 campaign.

“It is one of the best Premier League goals I have scored for sure,” Hazard told the Premier League’s official website.

“I was not thinking about scoring but step by step I came close to the goal and in the last 10 metres I was alone.

“When the ball went in I felt that I created something special so I was happy.”

It is the second time Chelsea have won the accolade this season after Pedro’s goal against Tottenham sealed November’s award.
