HiddinkChelsea’s interim manager, Guus Hiddink, warns that his side would need to be wary of Watford’s strike force when the two sides meet on Wednesday night’s English Premier League.

The Dutchman also said Brazil play-maker, William was a fit for the visit to Watford.

Chelsea’s new signings are unlikely to feature in the starting line-up against 10th-placed Watford.

Meanwhile, Eden Hazard, scoring his first goal of the season and his 50th overall for Chelsea in the FA Cup win drew plenty of attention, even as Hiddink looks at the bigger picture.

The Blues’ manager also spoke about Hazard being on an upward curve in terms of performance and fitness.

“I don’t know if that goal is a big, big issue. Eden scored although, the ball was rather static and of course you would prefer to make a goal from an open-play attack, which is the next step, but I think he is not so worried about that.

“The key for him and for us is that he is coming to the level where he can play repeatedly and do a lot of actions,” Hiddink said on the club’s website.
