What they contend about Kante
“Everybody knows that N’Golo Kante can run for 11 players – that’s his best quality. He gets a round and plays simple. When a manager tells him something, he will do it and he will do it perfectly. He’s one of a biggest players for Chelsea, he creates a difference, because, to be honest, when we see when they remove a ball, he will remove a round 3 times and win a round behind 4 times!
