TT to get best out of Kante?

It would be good if he does but I’m not holding my breath. Kante hasn’t been at his world class best since Conte for me (2017). Tuchel does seem a fan and if he was able to get Kante back to his best in a two man midfield that would be great. But even now Kova and Horhi are performing well so it is down to Kante to get back into the side on form. In previous years he’d start regardless because it’s Kante but that aura is starting to slip.

I think its a good time to cash in on Kante but only to a non prem team who will pay a lot of money like Real Madrid. He has picked up more injuries recently and we could make room for young Billy. in all honesty we are top heavy in midfield and could do with offloading a few.

I think we should keep him. No one else wins the ball back as well and feeds creatives. If he wins the ball higher up the pitch than he did under Lamps he could feed Ziyech and Pulisic to devastating effect

Also, injuries were badly managed under Sarri and Frank. Hopefully TT will do better.

The academy successes like CHO, Reece, RLC have had so many injuries

Kova is currently & consistently our best player after Mount
Even Jorginho under TT seems to have got his act together

Don't know where he uses Kante currently

Not for me anymore, everytime he plays we lack control of midfield and possession, been a terrific servant for us but we really should have taken Inter s money

Surely he still has a role to play on the counter turning over ball in dangerous positions and feeding pulisic and Ziyech?

Maybe in a midfield 2 as Billy’s minder when Jorg/Kova axis needs a rest

Of course he could still have some role to play but if we are still receiving massive bids for him, well, each year it becomes more like we should probably accept those bids.

Once Kante is up to speed, he's a nailed-on starter every week. No two ways about it. He's a force of nature, revered by Tuchel and rightly so.

I think the key to extracting the best out of him and prolonging his career is to...cut down his workload in training.
Frank tried his damnedest by significantly reducing intensity in training to avoid injury.

Is this common knowledge or you invited to training to see it for yourself
