N’Golo Kante ‘Sang Cenayang’

Brussels –

Thierry Henry praise N’Golo Kante. Midfielder ability Chelsea it was reading the opponent’s game made him wonder with admiration.

Kante is touted as the best midfielder at the moment. His role is so vital on the field, in terms of cutting the opponent’s ball and helping his team attack.

That role is so visible at Chelsea. Kante, who was bought from Leicester City in 2016, has become a mainstay in the Blues’ midfield.

This season, for example, Kante is one of the reasons why Chelsea can win the Champions League. His performance in the knockout phase helped the Blue beat his opponents.

Kante was man of the match in two semi-finals against Real Madrid and the final against Manchester City. The Frenchman managed to tackle his opponents correctly, and started his team’s attack which often led to goals.

Quality N’Golo Kante, who has already won the Premier League, FA Cup, Europa League and Champions League at Chelsea, praised Thierry Henry. Former AS Monaco striker, Juventus, Arsenal and Barcelona it was amazing how Kante was like a psychic, able to read the opponent’s game.

“Listen, you usually pay attention to certain people because they score goals and make headlines. But, I rarely see a player who can intercept the ball. Like he already knew the ball was going to land there. Sometimes he even went before the ball came. Like just “can think, ‘how did he do it?!” Henry said on the Youtube Five channel.

“He reads the game to be able to intercept the ball without making any fouls or tackling most of the time. He comes at the same time as the ball, sometimes earlier. How many times has he turned his opponent’s counter-attack into his team’s counter-attack? You’re building, and suddenly he gets the ball and you turn around to be in trouble. It’s happened time and time again!”

“A lot of times you see him getting the ball back and after that it’s a goal for Chelsea. He has the capacity to read the game and see where the ball is going, sometimes he’s ahead of the ball.”

“It’s not about guessing. When they say a striker smells a goal opportunity, it’s the same as Edge. He knows exactly where the ball is going and he can read his passes and patterns of play.”
