and switch to 4 3 3 as his first choice formation.
Here is why...
Kante can't play the midfield role that he used to under Conte because we don't have a natural DM like Matic. It may not be his best position, but Kante can play as DM in a midfield 3.
Mount is much better suited playing as a number 8 than out wide.
Havertz is likely to be much more involved in the game and more effective as a number 8 than as a 10. Kovacic also can play as an 8, breaking the lines.
The three man midfield should make it easier for us to play out from the back and in theory should mean we have more of the ball.
We have the ideal players for a front 3 in Pulisic, Werner, Ziyech, CHO, Tammy and Giroud.
Pulisic can play on the left where he tends to be more effective.
Finally 4 2 3 1 simply isn't working and we don't have the type of central midfield players to make it work.
Frank... Listen to me saaaaaan.
I am hopeful that Frank will see the light

And Kante is at his best when we don't have possession, but we already had that discussion last week.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We certainly did... And I'm still going to have to just take your word for that
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Just as a side point would you say there are there any other players in the premiership that have this specific and extraordinary skill that Kante has... and/or are even better at it
----------------------------------------------------------------------
no...that is why it is so hard to consider dropping him

Buy if we no longer wish to utilise him to his best, then we should cash inn and sell him to a club outside the PL

Oh...you've answered...I would agree that it's very difficult to drop kante... Although not for the reasons you think... His prowess off the ball being the specific one

Yeah why not... The worry is he goes to somewhere like United though

Frankly if we played him as defensive midfielder we would never need to drop him... And to my mind he doesn't need the lights of matic next to him
