Jose Mourinho insists Eden Hazard is in a one-horse race to scoop the player of the season award. The Chelsea forward has been outstanding this season and will be a leading contender to claim both the PFA and Football Writers' awards next month. The Belgian will face stiff competition, namely from Tottenham's Harry Kane, but Mourinho claims anyone who tips a player other than Hazard is merely making mischief.

Mourinho believes that 'it shouldn't even be a debate' that Hazard should claim the top prizes this season . Hazard has been in superb form for Chelsea this season and instrumental to their title charge . Mourinho insists that Hazard will be able to fend off competition from the likes of Spurs' Harry Kane (centre) 'It shouldn't even be a debate,' said Mourinho. 'If somebody throws other names on the table, it's because he wants to sell papers, get more clicks or throw some sand into people's eyes, because this player is by far the best player in the season.' Hazard is likely to feature at Queens Park Rangers on Saturday but Diego Costa will miss four weeks after aggravating a hamstring injury against Burnley last weekend. It means the striker will miss clashes with Manchester United and Arsenal. Mourinho is prepared to risk the availability of Cesc Fabregas and Nemanja Matic — both one booking away from a two-match ban — for the matches against Chelsea's rivals, saying: 'We try not to get a yellow card during the match, to play football. We know (the risks), but the game is a three-point game.' Meanwhile, Chelsea defender Wallace — on loan at Vitesse Arnhem — has been arrested on suspicion of an offence in a nightclub. The Dutch club refused to comment on the nature of the alleged offence, but a police spokesman was quoted by local media stating it was 'sexual'. Wallace was later released without charge.
