Certainly think Kante was doing the heavy lifting, but you don’t play midfield for a side that wins the Premier League if only one guy is doing everything. Give him a tiny bit of credit at least
I feel like this argument holds true for every player in history except for Kante. Genuinely think Leicester would have won the league with any upper-mid table deep lying midfielder who was having a consistent season.

Drinkwater was absolutely phenomenal for leicester that season and anyone discounting that wasn’t watching em Play at all.
