DBasia.news – Chelsea were beaten by Liverpool in the European Super Cup. Although his team had to continue to swallow the bitter pill, Frank Lampard did not necessarily dissolve in disappointment.
He considered Chelsea has shown progress. In particular, he gave credit to N’Golo Kante, who performed superbly throughout the 120 minutes of action at Vodafone Park, Istanbul.
“He hasn’t been in a lot of training sessions and his ankles are swollen on Tuesday night. However, he still wants to play and is able to survive for 120 minutes. You can see what he did for the team, “explained Frank Lampard.
The former England national team midfielder believes N’Golo Kante will be an important figure for Chelsea this season.
“He is an amazing player and character. He always wants to play. He was known to be humble in his life. However, in the field, he is a machine, “said Lampard.
“He will do even more because now he hasn’t practiced too much. I enjoyed working with him. I respect him as a player. He will mean a lot to us. “
