Get caught up with all the movers and shakers from this past summer's transfer window.

Hazard became the most expensive Premier League signing of the summer so far when he joined the Blues from Lille in a £32million deal in June.

The Belgium international comes with a huge reputation having been named Ligue 1 Player of the Year in each of the past two seasons.

With supporters excited at the prospect of Hazard helping the Stamford Bridge outfit launch a serious title challenge, the 21-year-old playmaker has moved to downplay expectations.

"I am going to play bad games," Hazard told The Sun.

But Hazard takes a phlegmatic approach to any potential difficulties that lie ahead.

He added: "My transfer fee does not put pressure on me. I am 'Zen' - very calm - about it."
