N'Golo Kante is small in height but he's playing a big role in Chelsea's rise and Leicester's sudden domestic demise

Paul Pogba's move to Manchester United stole the headline this summer when he left Juventus for a world record fee but it's his compatriot who is now stealing the show.

N'Golo Kante, who is just over 5ft 5ins in height, is making a big difference to the landscape of the Premier League with Chelsea shining and Leicester struggling.

The champions' loss has been Antonio Conte's gain as Leicester have dropped to 14th from first while Chelsea are up eight places from their poor 10th spot finish.
