The Nigeria international returned to club action following the international break, but he could not help the Foxes avoid a defeat against the Blues Super Eagles midfielder Wilfred Ndidi is the butt of jokes from fans on social media after losing his battle against France international Ngolo Kante. The Nigerian international replaced Kante at Leicester in 2017, after the France international left for Chelsea in 2016. When Ndidi joined Leicester, Kante was the best defensive midfielder in the world, and he is still seen as the best by some today. However, Ndidi’s performances for the Foxes since he replaced the World Cup winner have also put him in the conversation. And ahead of the clash between the two sides on Saturday afternoon, some fans made an argument for Ndidi as the better player between the two. However, the Nigeria international was second best throughout the encounter as Kante put up a midfield masterclass to help Chelsea to a 3-0 win and go six points clear at the top of the Premier League, courtesy of goals from Antonio Rüdiger, Ngolo Kante and Christian Pulisic. The World Cup winner had an 85% pass accuracy, while he also made two interceptions and two tackles, respectively. He managed three shots on target, with one ending in the back of the net, which happens to be Chelsea’s second. In contrast, Ndidi had just 67% accuracy, made two tackles and just one interception. But the highlight of their battle was when Ndidi slipped after he was embarrassed by Kante’s body movement. Following the game, fans could not resist trolling him for that particular moment in the game. https://soccernet.ng/2021/11/fans-troll-ndidi-after-he-was-embarrassed-by-kante-in-leicesters-loss-to-chelsea.html

Kante is the best pure defensive midfielder ever. In my lifetime, I never thot I would see anyone better than Makalele, till Kante came around. This is someone who has both Makalele and Yaya Toure wrrapped into him. Add a bit of Edgar Davis into the mix. 1 Like |

paulolee: Did I say kante was better than Yaya or near him in terms of goals being scored by Yaya. I'm talking about the box to box attributes of Yaya, turning defence to attack, workrate(with&without the ball). See how you reduced football/positioning to be about goals. From a Central midfield position, should football be reduced to be all about goals? It depends on the system the coach/team wants that particular player to play. If Yaya ha remained in Barca and not gone to mancity, would we have seen him become so free in the middle? Never. Rather he was sharing same role with busquet and never have more than 3goals per season while at Barca. So what are you talking about? I said he is a hybrid of both makalele and Yaya and that based on their skill set, stamina, styles of play. Not by how many goals he scored. John Terri is the highest scoring central defender in England ever, maybe even Europe. Does that make him the best ever defender? Kante does the box to box thing Yaya, Gerrard were known for. Make no mistake, kante is more than just a pure defensive midfielders. Hope you watched him in Leicester city when he was usually just behind marez and Vardy during counterattacks. |

paulolee:Yaya wasn't a defensive midfielder at Man. City. He was at Barca but not at Man City. He even played as a supporting striker and attacking midfielder but later played as central midfielder. 1 Like |

paulolee: Are you saying that Yaya is way better than kante? Unfortunately, kante has also carried teams as well as Yaya, even if not in terms of goal contribution. There were few times last season and in between this year whereby kante was a clear favourite by majority for ballon d'or. I don't think Yaya ever came close to such accolade. Kante was amongs 3most important French players that won their world cup. We have seen kante play that same Yaya box2box midfield, and we all know how well it went. |

paulolee: Pls did Yaya Toure play defensive midfield in mancity? Do u know what u are saying so? He wasn't even near the defensive midfield line all thru his time in mancity. |
