The Arsenal boss believes the PFA Player of the Year needs to decide matches more consistently if he is to be considered alongside the two best players in the world.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger says Eden Hazard is not currently at the same level as Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona’s Lionel Messi.
Hazard was one of the stars of the 2014-15 Premier League season and claimed the PFA and FWA Player of the Year awards as he helped the Blues claim their first title since 2010.
And while Jose Mourinho believes the former Lille winger had a better season than Ronaldo , who scored 61 goals despite Madrid failing to win a trophy, Wenger believes Hazard needs to be the difference for his team more consistently.
He told reporters ahead of Sunday’s Community Shield clash against Chelsea: “It is all about opinions. You have to compare the numbers. I must say players like Messi and Ronaldo still score 50 goals and that is exceptional.
“He [Hazard] can decide the games and you put the top players in this kind of calibre when they can decide the games with something special.
“Hazard is in this category, now to reach the other two or three that are dominating world football at the moment I think it demands consistency which he is still to do.”
