Chelsea boss Mourinho warns PFA: Awards are for title winners

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho says individual awards should go to title winners.

Hazard has been in scintillating form for Chelsea and while his manager does not want to draw any additional attention to his player, he does warn the decision makers of his criteria for any Player of the Season accolades.

"In my old-fashioned way of looking at individual awards, for me individual awards only for the winners," he said.

"I'm never happy when somebody wins individual awards but doesn't win the big prize, the collective one. If I was the guy to give awards, I'd wait until the end of the season and it would always go to a champion."
