"I didn't just frustrate Conte," Hazard said.
"In my career, I've frustrated all my managers, and now, I'm frustrating Sarri. I frustrated Mourinho.
"They all think you need to score more, do more of this and more of that. I'll also frustrate the next manager I have."
The Belgium winger was influential in his country's World Cup campaign where they narrowly missed out on a semi-final place after losing 2-1 to Brazil.

Hazard has already reached double figures in the league this season under Blues' boss Mauricio Sarri; his fourth manager in his seven seasons at the club.
But it's no secret that European heavyweights Real Madrid are interested in the slick Belgian.
He has ruled-out a January move to the La Liga side, but an £88 million price tag has been reported for in the summer window.
Real Madrid have fallen short of expectations so far this season since losing star-man Cristiano Ronaldo to Juventus.
