KdB wasn't doing anything previously. A change is a good thing probably

Feel for KdB. Quality player and comes across as a nice guy. I know it’s City but it’s the biggest game of his life, I don’t want anyone to go off injured like that.

I don't see how people compare Kante and Fred's technical ability. It's not close, Kante is superior. He may not be a great passer, but he can hold the ball and knows when to release it. He knows how to position himself well enough to keep the ball against opposition pressure.

Look how chelsea's midfielders are able to provide good options for their defence. They can hold the ball, move it quickly, switch play.....this is how you build up against pressure. It's not coaching, its personnel. Their midfielders can both do this, which buys the defence more time on the ball. How does anyone expect us to be able to attack when we can't build up. Chelsea is showing how you do it. Midfield has to be our number one position of interest.
While Kante had a dip for a few months and people could compare him, he has reminded us the last six months that he is beyond comparison. Easily Chelsea's best player

I'm sure he's only ever compared to highlight that we need someone of Kantes quality?

Feel for him, never good to see. Might actually be a blessing for city to have an actual striker.
