With the well deserved plaudits for The remarkable Jamie Vardy and the ever impressive Kante, I wanted to mention how fantastic Danny Drinkwater has been this season in the middle of the park. He has been outstanding and he such quality. Another fine display today along with Kante. Hope he stays fit as he is just loving his football right now ....aren't we ALL!!!!
He seems to take a year to get up to speed, but when he does he is outstanding. Worked really hard on his game and seems to be thriving. With Matty James starting doing some work on the training ground we have some real depth in our midfield.
It's a credit to both Drinky and Kante that we all seem to have forgotten we have Inler on the bench! I think it's fair to say Inler is world class and he can't get in our team!
Benefitted from Cambiasso not signing a new deal. Well done to him. Fuchs is starting to show what he can do aswell, he was good here in Germany for S04 & is now showing he can do it in the prem.
One of the biggest compliments Danny can have is Gokhan Inler isnt getting a sniff at the minute Drinky was horrendous at Bournemouth but Claudio kept faith with him and he has repayed him
Think hes playing cleverer this year, Kante should take alot of credit too, works his arse off. Think he prefers it when we don't have the ball so he can nick it back!
That's true Wizard. He is everywhere isn't he (Kante) is a clever footballer though and reads the game wonderfully well.
He is a fabulous player ... unlucky to give the penalty away ... can't help but think that nobody shouted him to get rid ... he had no idea that the guy was there ... but some of his interceptions are inspired and his all round pressing is up there with the best I've ever witnessed...
I think i seriously saw him lose it to win it back and make the opponent look like a mug today Another great performance by him, not often you say that about players who give away penos
Yes Kante is certainly a superb footballer. Covers every inch of the pitch 5.6m??? What a bargain. Worth double that already easily.
One of the best in the premier league. Playing him just means you win all the 50/50s.... on the ground.
Kante reminds me of Wellens in the fact he doesn't like to shoot. There was 2 or 3 opportunities to shoot and he didn't take any of them. Even with his goal I felt his should of shot first time and his shot was tame to say the least But apart from that he is a class player.
I think their hesitance to shoot is their only similarity Thankfully! He's our very own Claude Makelele, fantastic little player we've got on our hands!
