Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko has claimed team-mate and PFA Players' Player of the Year N'Golo Kante is 'no better' than him.
The 23-year-old was left out of manager Didier Deschamps' squad for the current international break and was also not involved for the pair of World Cup qualifiers in October.
Bakayoko insisted he respected Deschamps' decision but said he was as good as the players selected ahead of him.


'I am disappointed,' said Bakayoko.
