Chelsea news: Maurizio Sarri is ‘stupid’ to keep playing N’Golo Kante out of position, says Tony Cascarino
Tony Cascarino has said it is stupid for Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri to keep playing NGolo Kante out of his best position.The World Cup winner has been shifted out from his favoured holding role to a more advanced role on the left side of midfield this season by the new Blues boss.And its had a dramatic impact on his performances and influence on the Chelsea team.Sarri has practically built his team around 57million summer signing Jorginho playing in the holding role. The manager has said he wants a more technically gifted player in that position, but the absence of Kantes physical presence in the middle of the pitch has been obvious and Chelseas defensive stability has suffered as a result.2

Jorginho has taken Kante’s place as Chelsea’s midfield lynchpin, but he has been criticised for his performances

The Frenchman has been widely hailed as the best holding midfield player in the world, and Sarris decision not to play him there has baffled supporters and pundits alike – Cascarino included.The Kante one is stupid, I cant describe it any other way, the talkSPORT pundit and former Blues striker told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast.Playing the best holding midfielder on the left its like playing Alan Shearer as a winger!Whether Sarri is being stubborn or not none of us can get it, and I think weve been proven right.2

Maurizio Sarri has been criticised for his team selection

NGolo Kante is not playing in the position where he is the absolutely stand-out player.Hes won back-to-back Premier League titles, got a World Cup medal and about 100 man-of-the-match awards [playing in that role].Hes a fantastic athlete. Is he technically a magician on the ball? Of course hes not.Hes in the team to do the job, to win the ball and be a spoiler and he does that brilliantly.Listen back to Tony Cascarino on the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast IN FULL above!
