Chelsea forward Eden Hazard reckons the team have recovered their desire for success under manager Antonio Conte.

The Belgium international played a vital role as Chelsea recovered from a goal down to beat Watford 2-1 are Vicarage Road on Saturday.

Hazard's shot was spilled by Heurelho Gomes to allow Michy Batshuayi to level the game before Diego Costa netted a late winner for the visitors.

And Hazard believes Chelsea have salvaged their spirit again this season as the team seek to keep pace with Manchester City and Manchester United.

"The attitude is fantastic, even in training everyone wants to win games. That's why now we are winning," Hazard said on the club's official website.

"It's just the start of the season but if we want to stay at the top we have to win. Both Manchester teams won, we had to win and we did."

The 25-year-old is also confident Chelsea can progress this season under Conte's leadership.
