fab is not a defensive player to begin with. cant expect him to defend and flying into tackle as what matic did. he did ok in maintaining the shape of our defense.

dunno if it just me, but kante form is definitely below par for last couple of matches. vs tottenham bullied by dembele and wanyama. luckily got matic covering his ass. last night losing possession few times. but improve compare to tottenham game.

my conclusion,
matic - kante: both can go for box to box role.
cesc - kante, cesc - matic: matic and kante play traditional DM role.

Ya. Need to be more traditional if pair with cesc or Oscar. Both cesc or Oscar also not good at tackling. Especially Oscar. Almost every tackle he made result in yellow card.

Last night chalobah cameo quite good. Disposses opponent few times.
