Chelsea star Eden Hazard wants _______ to win the match between Arsenal and Monaco -

That the Chelsea winger is backing the Gunners may come as a surprise.

Not only is he declaring support for one of Chelsea's fiercest London rivals, Hazard also used to ply his trade in the French league and he is mates with Yannick Ferreira-Carrasco, the scorer of Monaco's third goal in the 3-1 first-leg win at the Emirates.

However, it seems the Belgium international values having an English team in the quarter-finals of the European Cup above those concerns.

"I have a friend Ferreira-Carrasco over there [at Monaco] and I wish him the best.

"But for English football, I hope Arsenal go through."
