N'Golo Kante enjoying Chelsea's new 3-4-3 formation

Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante says that he is enjoying the new 3-4-3 system implemented by Antonio Conte.

Chelsea midfielder N'Golo Kante has claimed that he has fully embraced Antonio Conte's new 3-4-3 formation at Stamford Bridge.

The 25-year-old, who joined the Blues from Premier League champions Leicester City in the summer, impressed on Saturday in a 3-0 triumph over his former club.

Conte's alterations appear to be working as the club have kept back-to-back clean sheets in the Premier League.

"The new system is working well," Kante told Chelsea's official website. "We have been better with and without the ball, and we have conceded fewer chances.

"Personally I like the system too. My job in a defensive central midfield position is to cut off attacks against us, but it has been a bit different in the past two games as I have been able to get forward a bit myself."

The West London outfit currently sit fifth in the Premier League table, three points behind leaders Manchester City.
