And Hudson-Odoi says that there is nothing more to do than watch with wonder when Hazard is in the kind of mood that it was Monday.
"All I can tell you is that I've looked at everything and that my mouth was like [wide open], all along, "said Hudson-Odoi Chelsea TV.
"It was crazy, he's an exceptional player, you know his qualities, he's a great player and I'm waiting for those things anyway.
"I'm always watching and learning from what he's doing in workouts and games, so looking at someone like that, he's a role model and an idol to watch."
While Hazard's exploits played a vital role that day to ensure the result, they also played an important role in Chelsea's pursuit of winning the Top Four and winning the Champions League.
The Blues beat their London rival Tottenham in third place in the standings, even though they played an extra match compared to other players on the hunt.
And Hudson-Odoi said Monday's win was crucial to keep the top four push alive while putting pressure on the other teams.

"I think today's three points were crucial, two other teams lost points and we had to win, and we did it the right way in my opinion," he said.
"Our mentality was strong, we had to work hard during the match and stay patient and compact, we had to keep looking for the ball, to move it forward and fortunately we had both goals."
The next step for Chelsea is a match against Slavia Prague in the Europa League before fighting against Liverpool on Sunday in the Premier League.
