I thought players playing on reputation was the one thing I thought we'd never have to worry about under Frank given how vocal he was against Sven doing it, but clearly not! Wait, what's the problem with Kante? He is finally healthy and is easily one of our best players. Let me get this right, you think he SHOULDN'T play?

We're playing arguably the best team in Europe. If Kante / Chelsea as a whole perform badly what are you going to say? I told you so? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SUNZ 155 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 When did Kante become unpopular? This is fascinating to me. DDA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azul 1,615 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Jorginho is one of the most overrated players. This guy can barely defend, Kante in the middle is much better. As for Barkley yes Kova is technically better, but Barkley played pretty good last game when he came on. mkh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DANILA 290 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 To be honest very worried with this lineup and expecting a horror show from the team. No Kovacic + Giroud blows my mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoroccanBlue 5,382 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Cool, we have Kante who can defend. Who exactly in that midfield will actually allow us to retain possession and transition the ball without hoofing it?

Azul 1,615 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 People are forgetting Kante was playing out of position for the last two years. Last game against Aston Villa, he finally played in his true role and excelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree for this one just not in DM. This is what happened the last time he played there in a big game, look at how Ozil wiped in out around 1:23 which started the move to a third goal and left our defense exposed, and this was playing a system that suits him. City will bait him into vacating his position to press and it will be carnage. Stats and killer1257 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once was for France in Euro16, he was dropped. The other was his first few games for us, it went so well Conte overhauled the entire system. killer1257, Azul and Strike 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He and Kova are our only players that do not need a lot of space and he has great vision and makes the unexpected passes to the attack. Barkley and Mount both need a lot space, which today that they won't have. 0007 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously, I cannot believe what I'm reading. Man City do this to him every game. Unlike Kante, he has zero recovery speed. I really can't believe what I'm reading. Did you guys watch the Bayern? It was a masterclass from Jorginho in leaving your space and leaving gaps behind. It's the only thing he is actually world class at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
