One good season indeed...... when did you start watching football? Or you are just being unnecessarily biased?.... Right from his debut season at Leicester city, he was pivotal to Leicester incredible run in Winning the league and that form has continued till yesterday. No doubt Messi is in a god statue in history of football but has shown time after time, only he can change the entire outcome of games, give it to him bro you no go die. And yes he has eclipsed the performances of all the DM of all time you mentioned.

sholatech:
He's won Champions League.
He's won World Cup.
He is one of the greatest!!
Many of us Non Chelsea fans love him absolutely

donbenie:
Lol..
There arose a King..
Who knew not Moses..
Are you seriously comparing Kante to Messi?

paulolee:
just imagine the insult....the first mistake is placing Kante in d same sentence with messi bcox of one good UCL season??
asking about an alien like messi with his level of consistency since 2008 and a kante dt was in Chelsea since 2016 n jus clicked form this season??
i think u should jus stop all dis kante joke bcoz you guys are now taking this kante hype to another level..
first it was VVD n next was fernandez n now its kante....seems this EPL hype men still dnt get d difference between form n class..
lets give ur kante more time before asking all this baseless questions or placing him in same sentence with an alien dt have been destroying records for decades
This op needs prayers..

Men and brethren, after watching the champions league final yesterday, I'm beginning to reassess what I initially knew to be true about football which is that good attackers win you games. I can 100% say that Kante was a MAJOR reason for Chelsea's victory. Yes Messi may assure you goals and creativity and terrorize defenders but boy what a player like Kante brings to any team is out of this world.

NB I'm not a Chelsea fan but Chelsea fans I think you guys are blessed to have one of the all time greatest all round midfielders in your team. Kai what a player

Flows001:
I understand that truth is bitter.
Stop forcing your choice on people. I personally love Kante but the truth is that he only had an incredible UCL run, that alone does not qualify him for a Ballon d'Or... If you cannot be the best in your league or at least make reasonable impact, then na World best you wan make dem give you abi? See the kind child's play wey Man City use EPL teams do, imagine that kind gap and the Chelsea wey your world best dey had to rely on Spurs in order to make top four. If to say Man City win UCL, you for no even fit cough the name Kante sef as De Bruyne and Dias were more impactful. Mind you, VVD had an incredible EPL and UCL record b4 he got to that position and he couldn't win the Balon d'Or nonetheless, Modric was phenomenal in the UCL, Laliga and World Cup and that was why he got the Ballon d'Or.. Go sleep Abeg you wey Sabi ball!!!

Amotolongbo:
Against tougher team, I will prefer Kante.

Against weaker team, I will prefer Messi.

Moreover, Kante doesn’t need Xavi and Iniesta to win the Champions league

paulolee:

my guy, ur talk is baseless n it shows lack of respect to the GOAT tag..
how can u place a d.m and a sT for selection n u forgot dt d decison would be influenced by what each team already av..
secondly d likes of mascherano, veron, viera, essein, yaya toure n even busquets etc on their prime even did better n won trophies than kante dt jus mark n cnt score goals, very poor in attack n not good in aerial balls n u are making it sound asif he do score 100+ goals a season..
jus imagine d funny question becoz of one good season, u ar placing him with a legend dt av been destroying records n winning trophies for more than a decade..
thats wickedness bro....sure say u go church today or na highness u take type dis joke??

Bomboiy:
Lol Messi is actually the S.I unit of football,anyone and everyone gets compared to him.


Kante had a great UCL run and he's being compared to Messi, unbelievable.

Amotolongbo:
Mbappe ( Kante’s younger brother) has won World Cup, has Messi done that?

Flows001:
Abeg loud this!! Kante is good no doubt, but the hype is becoming too much really. Make all these EPL fanboys calm down, a legend is a legend, stop comparing form with proven class. Na Pep I blame for all these, nobody mentioned or hyped Kante after FA cup defeat to Leicester. Same would have happened yesterday had it been City were useful....OP no ever ask this useless question again.

stayclearofme:

Childish analysis
Meaning Messi plays better again weaker teams. How long have you being watching football?

LordGuru1:
The image below is so True because Adam and Eve were originally Black Africans. Free yourself from mental Slavery if you are still not woke to this Historical Truth. Archeological, Scientific and Spirritual evidences all agree on the fact that Africans are the Fathers and Mothers of all other Races in the World, "Respect your Father and Mother" of the CREATOR that they refused to obey is why the World has known no Peace till date.

LeviAckerman:

That explains why Kante has more assists than Messi you dumb fvuk

terabyte002:
All these noise about Messi......what season did Barca last played Ucl Final sef. He's a legend but the absence of Iniesta and Xavi really affected Barca at bigger stage n that's why they never get pass quarter final or semi in d past 4/5 season ago.
If football is just about goal, there would be no need for having goalkeeper in a team atall.
The man Kante deserve all the hype!

Abdulmumin412:

Ur comment here shows that you either a novice in soccer or you don't know records Kante a playmaker that supply strikers. Can you compare messi assist to any other players? Messi is the player holding assist record in world of football. Messi assist in one season can Kante have it in two seasons? How did you measure your playmaker bro?

Lordbinsmar:
Kante is one of the best holding midfielder of this generation..

I support FC Barcelona but I respect Kante a lot. He he currently the world best in his position..

Adakintroy:
Unless you are comparing two unequals terms. Prime level kante vs prime level Messi no be comparison.

Kante is good but He is not even viera good or Roy Kean good or busquet prime good( forget raw energy football is also a technical sport).

Messi is godfather good. In my lifetime I have seen ronaldihno, Figo, rivaldo, bale,delima and Henry zidan. All this player were germs. But Messi makes them look very ordinary.

So so on point.

So prime level.vs prime level. It's a no brainer

Ugokelvin007:
Tough match..they usually pocket Messi..u can't pocket kante

paulolee:

what messi have done in football eh, no player In the whole of france can do it..
not surprised because all humans have short memories...I also know dt a day like this would come..
my happiness is dt no close friends n family member of kante can say such because they respect records, consistency n history more than some short termed shallow fans like us..
imagine the insult na....guy wetin u smoke self??

paulolee:

my guy....small kante cnt be placed I same sentence with a player like messi because its a disrespect to leo years of winning n "consistency"
how can u ask such question about a kante of yesterday against a legend like messi dt started since 2008? its so sickening jhare
run a poll online the white folks would bash u bcoz they dnt joke with records, consistency n history..
some questions aint necessary atall n even ur tuchel cnt say such bcoz of respect he gat for messi
d next is asking if I prefer a kante to pep or Kante to Ederson..
dts d same way u once hyped VVD sha, with time dis kante madness go reduce n u get to understand wat it takes to attain success consistently for more than 10 years n respect such more better
