It might be a bit of a stretch to suggest Gary Lineker is some sort a prophet, but in a year in which the crisp-selling former England striker has been everything from voice of the left to leader of the opposition, maybe it's fine for us to give him one more title.
It was back in June when Leicester City's most high-profile fan gave the short assessment that went against the odds from the bookmakers but looks rather prescient six months on. "Inevitably Kante has gone," Lineker posted on Twitter as N'Golo Kante's move from Leicester to Chelsea was confirmed.
