Conte simply must not start these 2 Chelsea players against Brentford on Saturday

 N’Golo Kante

N’Golo Kante had an unusually poor game against Hull City, with the Frenchman’s often pinpoint passing causing the Blues more than a few problems defensively.

Now, of course, the Frenchman is allowed a bad game or 2, given how well he has played all season, but with so many important games coming up – he needs to be playing as well as he can.

Brentford are unlikely to offer much of a threat going forward, and so his defensive stability won’t really be necessary on the day. Instead, maybe Nathaniel Chalobah should be given a chance.
