TABLE OF CONTENTS

This was a very special opportunity for us, as brothers, to work together on something we are both so passionate about. Football has always been a big part of our lives. We hope this book will inspire others to start or continue playing football and chasing their dreams.

Writing a book like this was one of our dreams, and we are extremely thankful to John Blake Publishing and James Hodgkinson and Chris Mitchell, in particular, for making this project possible. It was great to have your guidance and support throughout our writing process.

We are also grateful to all the friends and family that encouraged us along the way. Your interest and sense of humour helped to keep us on track. Will, Doug, Mills, John, James Pang-Oldfield and the rest of our King Edward VI friends, our aunts, uncles, cousins, the Nottingham and Montreal families and so many others thank you all.

Mum and Dad, the biggest thank you is reserved for you. You introduced us to football and then devoted hours and hours to taking us to games. You bought the tickets, the kits, the boots. We love football because you encouraged us to. Thank you for all the love, all the laughs and for always believing in us. This book is for you.

Stamford Bridge, London, 3 May 2015

Eden, Eden, Eden, Eden, Eden, EdenEDEN HAZARD!

Come on Chelsea!

At the end of the first half, Willian backheeled the ball and Eden ran into the box at speed. As usual, there were two players marking him and as he used his skills to try to get past them, they brought him down. As he lay on the floor, Eden looked up at the referee. Penalty!

Cesc Fbregas helped him back to his feet, saying: When you run at defenders, theres nothing they can do except foul you!

There was no doubt which Chelsea player would take the penalty. Eden was very proud of his 100 per cent scoring record and everyone expected him to make it 1 0.

As he waited for the referees whistle with his hands on his hips, he thought back to captain John Terrys pre-game message: If we win today, we win the Premier League title. The crowd at Stamford Bridge was completely silent; everyone knew how important this goal could be. It was a good thing Eden didnt feel pressure.

The goalkeeper was moving around on his goalline, trying to put him off. Eden stepped up and shot to the right but it wasnt as powerful as normal and it wasnt heading for the corner. The keeper saved it but the ball bounced out. Eden reacted first, beating the Crystal Palace defenders to head the ball into the net. Gooooooooooooooaaa
aaaaaaaaaaalllllllllllllllllllllll!

Eden wiped the sweat off his forehead. He hated missing penalties but at least he had scored the rebound. There was relief in the stands too; Chelsea were still on track to become champions. Nemanja Matic lifted Eden into the air and Didier Drogba gave him a big hug.

We can talk about that awful penalty later, he joked. Right now, were forty-five minutes away from the Premier League title!

At the final whistle, everyone celebrated. Chelsea manager Jos Mourinho congratulated his coaches on the touchline, owner Roman Abramovich punched the air with joy and the players hugged each other and formed a big circle. Eden was their star but the entire team had all played really well for the whole season.

Weve done it! Eden shouted to Cesc. Were champions!

Wearing Chelsea caps and scarves, they ran to the fans and clapped every single one of them for all of their support. Eden loved to entertain them and they loved him for that. The fans never stopped singing:

Blue is the colour, football is the game,

Were all together and winning is our aim.

Captain John Terry ran to Eden and gave him a massive hug.

What a season! he laughed. Luckily we had the best player in the league in our team!

It was the happiest moment of Edens life. Winning the French league with Lille had been great but the Premiership was the best league in the world.

Eden found his wife Natacha and kissed her. His family meant the world to him and he was so glad that they could share his joy. He took his sons out on to the pitch in their Chelsea shirts with their names on the back and Edens Number 10. Holding Yanniss hand and with Leo in his arms, he walked around the pitch with the fans cheering his name. It was a moment that Eden would never forget.

When they spotted Edens parents and brothers in the crowd, they waved. Growing up in a football-mad family had been the perfect place to start and he was very grateful for their support over the years.

There was one last person that Eden needed to thank.

Youve taught me so much, he said to Mourinho, and now Im playing the best football of my life.

Thats not because of me, Mourinho replied modestly. Thats because of you and your hard work. Congratulations and enjoy yourself!

He was right Eden had worked very hard to prove his critics wrong and become a team leader. His skills had always been incredible but Eden now had new sides to his game strength, determination and consistency. The supporters could rely on his moments of magic in almost every match.

It had been an amazing and sometimes difficult journey from the back garden in Belgium to Europes top young talent and now to Premier League champion and Player of the Year. Eden had enjoyed every minute of it and he couldnt wait to see what he would achieve next.

Eden! Eden! Grandma Nicole shouted happily from the house. Grandpa Francis was playing football with his grandson in the garden. Eden was only two years old but he could already kick the ball hard. He couldnt really aim his shot, though, and so his grandpa had to keep getting the ball out of the flowerbeds.

Grandma Nicole had just got off the phone with Edens father, Thierry. Eden, come on, weve got to go to the hospital. Its time to meet your new brother!

Eden wasnt sure about having a brother. Until now he had been the star of the show and got lots of attention from his parents and grandparents. But now they would have to look after the new baby and they might not have time to play football with him. Eden sat down in the grass and refused to move.

Arent you excited to see him? Grandpa Francis asked, picking him up and taking him inside to get ready.

No! he replied, shaking his head violently.

In the hospital, Edens dad proudly showed him the baby he couldnt believe how tiny it was.

Eden, this is your brother, Thorgan, Thierry said. Isnt he lovely? A couple of years ago, you were that small too!

Carine could see that her older son wasnt happy about the new arrival. Dont look so sad soon youll be able to play football together.
