Eden Hazard is determined to establish himself as a Chelsea legend after becoming the 10th player to reach 100 goals for the club during a hard-fought 2-1 win over Watford.

The Belgian scored either side of the break at Vicarage Road as Maurizio Sarris men leapfrogged Arsenal to go fourth in the Premier League table.

In a frantic period just before the half-time, Hazard rounded Ben Foster to score his 100th goal for Chelsea but Roberto Pereyra immediately equalised for the home side with a stunning volley.

Hazard continued to cause Watford problems in the second half and the pressure told as Foster barged the forward to the floor with an erratic challenge in the 58th minute.

Making no mistake with the resulting penalty, Hazard was able to score his 101st goal and expressed his delight at reaching the milestone after the final whistle.

It means a lot, especially because we won today, he told Sky Sports after the victory.

101 goals with this amazing club is something I will never forget but now the fans, staff and players want more.

I want to score more for this club and then try to be a legend like Frank Lampard, Didier Drogba and John Terry.

I can even play at centre back. My target is to score goals and to try and win the game, as a winger or a striker. I missed a couple of chances today, especially in the first half, but I scored two so its important to keep focus.
