Eden Hazard indirectly criticized Jose Mourinho as he praised new Chelsea manager Antonio Conte. Mourinho began his career in professional soccer as a translator.
"We give everything for him," said Hazard of Conte.
"I'm still the same player. Conte is giving us confidence after a poor season. Conte knows footballers, because he was once a footballer..."
Sergio Ramos made similar comments in the past about Mourinho after Carlo Ancelotti replaced him.
"Madrid needed someone who understood footballers and Ancelotti understands that to perfection," said Ramos. "He's been a footballer and can put himself in a footballer's shoes."
