The Belgium international saw off competition from the likes of Arsenal's Alexis Sanchez and Manchester United's David De Gea as he took home the prestigious individual trophy following an 18-goal season under Jose Mourinho.
Hazard will again be Chelsea's main man this evening as the title hopefuls take on Leicester, and Terry has explained how the former Lille star's attributes have put him in a class of his own this season.
He is an exciting player and for us at the back, you give him the ball and you can relax for a bit
John Terry
He told the club's website: "To maintain consistency first and foremost is to remain fit and he has had a couple of tackles this year where you are concerned, but he bounces back and he has everything – a great burst of pace, agility, he scores goals including a couple of headers and his tracking back has been superb.
"He gets his body in front of the ball and glides past people and has that burst of pace to then get away. He is an exciting player and for us at the back, you give him the ball and you can relax for a bit. Hopefully we can win the league so he can add that to the award too."
