How can midfield who only played 5 minutes as a midfield is being compared to Kante who has done for a whole season? Being a great tackler and can drive with the ball aren't the only attributes you need to be a midfielder. There are more attributes he needs to show before he qualifies to be one of them, although I do think he can play as a midfielder but at the same I want proof not just bunch of talks. And also the tireless of Mensah when he played as a defenders and Kante as a midfielder in 442 formation are two complete different level.
Either he will become one or no, we shouldn't compare Mensah to Kante based on video, attributes when he plays in defense, and 5 minutes of came on as a midfielder against Norwich. This is not enough for evidence. This is why I disagree with the original poster when he criticised people who want Kante. It makes sense because Mensah hasn't show us enough to be a midfielder and it's fair enough if people want Kante.
