Chelsea manager, Thomas Tuchel has come out to hail N’Golo Kante for his performance vs Atletico Madrid in the UCL. He recently revealed that the midfielder actually gives the Blues an unfair advantage thanks to his tireless play.
According to him, playing with the Frenchman is like playing with half a man more because he gives intensity and volume that is always outstanding and unique on the pitch.
He added that it is such a pleasure to manage a player like Kante as he is a very big helper for his team.
His words, “I never know the age of my players just from performance. If you play with him, you play with half a man more because he gives intensity and volume that is outstanding and is unique,”
“It is a pleasure to coach him, a big gift for me, such a big helper on the pitch; and don’t underestimate his quality in using [the ball], escaping the pressure.”
“He can improve with the ball, but it is fantastic to have him. Kova [Mateo Kovacic] and him needed to step up today and the two knew they could be relied upon, they took all the weight on their shoulders and did a fantastic job.”
He added, “From the very first moment, I felt part of a family and a well structured club that thinks every three days about what is needed to win games,”
“Everybody in this club thinks about football and from the first day the support was amazing. I feel part of it. A true part. I feel like part of the team also.”
