Mendy hails 'indispensable' Kante & says Chelsea played 'perfect game' against Man City

The Blues goalkeeper is a big fan of a club colleague that has added a Champions League crown to his enviable collection of honours

Edouard Mendy has labelled N'Golo Kante "a complete player" and "indispensable" for Chelsea, while claiming that the Blues played the "perfect game" to defeat Manchester City in the Champions League final.

That win ensured Kante added a Champions League crown to his enviable collection of honours, with another midfield masterclass put in during the 1-0 victory in Portugal.

There have been suggestions that Kante could now be recognised as the best player on the planet, such is his value to any given cause, and Mendy admits that a 30-year-old unsung hero is deserving of a standing among the global elite.
