A 0-0 result at a title rival is not a bad result by any means, and there were some promising moments out there for Chelsea on the pitch, not least in the showing from Edouard Mendy in goal, who potentially saved us a point at the end with a great save.
The Blues almost turned that point into three just moments later, when they broke towards Man United’s goal at the other end.
The ball fell to N’Golo Kante, who had had a poor game up to that point, and his poor touch allowed the opposition to nick it away, ending Chelsea’s final attack of the game. It had happened a few times before, with multiple chances breaking down at his feet.
He’s not been his usual self this season, and it’s causing some debate among pundits and fans alike. Will we ever see the France star back to his best?

Ngolo Kante hasn’t been great this game. Off the ball he has been decent but on the ball. Prefer not to speak..

Take it in the end. Looked like we were gonna concede. But Kante going forward is breaking this transition from defence into attack.

Has Kante completed a forward pass yet?

Kante should’ve been off for Kovacic, Giroud should’ve been on for Werner

Kante needs to sit in front of the defence, he has no business in the attacking third

Chilwell, Zouma, Jorginho….all were better than Kante.
