And the Belgian decided to have a bit of fun at United's expense by posting on social media.

Alongside a photo of him walking his two dogs, Hazard wrote: "Today’s marking in my other day job was a little easier than against Man U!"

Then underneath that photo he shared action shots from the Premier League clash at the weekend.

One shows him evading a tackle by Henrikh Mkhitaryan, the other is of him being man-handled by Eric Bailly and the final one shows him escaping the attentions of Antonio Valencia and Nemanja Matic.

Although he didn't quite have the impact on the game he would have liked, the 26-year-old was still a vital part of Antonio Conte's team as they took all three points.

Last season it was worked out that Hazard was one of the most fouled players in the Premier League - only Crystal Palace's Wilfried Zaha trumped him to top spot.

Speaking to the Independent previously about being fouled, Hazard said: "I don’t see the point in reacting.

"True, it’s a human response but it is the way I have been brought up. I have been used to taking the knocks. The more I take, the happier I am.

"It always makes me want to outdo them but in a football way and I don’t want to make their life a misery by kicking them.

"I want to hurt the opponent but in terms of the football."
