Who still thinks we should sell Kante?! The man is a different beast when played right.
Good game, thought Pulisic should have started, Azpi and Giroud were really good as well. Big 3 points.
{Ed047's Note - I cant believe anyone would ever think it was or is a good idea to sell him.

Kante is a warrior. There will be no other like him. He should simply retire at Chelsea.

People want him sold because he struggled in the more progressive RCM role under Sarri and then had injury problems this season which has had an effect on some of his performances. Fortunately though our board isn't silly enough to do so, he's our best player by a mile and he's going to be crucial if we're to get top4. I do hope Lampard converts Kante into a proper DM, be that destroyer we need to protect the defence like he did today. May struggle with the ball moving it from the defence to midfield but what he'll offer besides that will be more important for me.
A Ruben, Kante and Mount midfield three would play very well together imo. Sure a lot of people will disagree with Ruben because of his performance today but he's not a winger, and his 1st game back after 13 month was always going to be difficult.

Who would you prefer in front of you’re back 4 if you don't mind me asking Ed? Kante or Jorgi? Or is that a silly question perhaps 😂🙈.
{Ed047's Note - Kante all day long, not a big fan of Jorginho, think he’s the one you should move on to be honest, just don’t see what he offers

Kante is the last world class player we have. Madness if we sell him.

RLC can only improve London, that’s for sure.
It was what I expected after so long out.
21 Jun 2020 20:44:41
RLC was out of position anyway today he’s always been better deeper so he can drive forward.
I really hope to see a RLC, Kante, Mount midfield soon, has a little bit of everything.
21 Jun 2020 20:58:17
Surely you guys are kidding. Kante in that defensive midfield position is first choice easily but RLC or Mount ahead of Kovacic? Madness.
21 Jun 2020 21:45:28
I'm sorry but Kovacic is probably our best player this season. How he could be left out is bizarre.
21 Jun 2020 23:13:36
I like Kovacic but I do prefer to see us play with two attacking 8’s either side of the defensive midfielder both capable of scoring/ creating.
