Antonio Conte reveals positive N’Golo Kante update

Antonio Conte has just endured a rather difficult press conference where he was grilled over several subjects, including his training methods and the happiness of his players about them.

He stayed calm however and managed the questions well, despite the clear irritation of Chelsea’s press conference.

Despite the grilling there was some good news. N’Golo Kante’s injury is progressing well and the midfielder looks likely to be around sooner rather than later. Both the Roma game and the Manchester United game were mentioned as possibilities and Conte did not rule either of them out.

This is a rare spot of good news, with Chelsea’s midfield looking weaker than ever at the moment, with both Bakayoko and David Luiz looking like they may struggle to return in time for this weekend.

As for Danny Drinkwater, he has only just returned to training and appears to be some way off a full return. It could be almost December by the time we see him.
