Chelsea shares pictures of N'Golo Kante training HARD head of blockbuster against Man City

Frank Lampard has been under pressure in the Premier League following their recent results which has seen the Blues drop points against Chelsea and Aston Villa. 

Chelsea will kick off the new year with a game at home at the Stamford Bridge this weekend. The West London outfit will host Manchester City on Sunday in a game which is expected to have a lot of significance in the position of Chelsea in the league standing. 

Frank Lampard has been taking his side under different training schemes on how to master mind Pep Guardiola's Manchester City side. 

One man who might be a catalyst for the Blues in the game will have to be N'Golo Kante. The French international was pictured in training today performing his duties as a defensive midfielder. 

Kante has been playing the defensive role for Chelsea under Frank Lampard which has seen Jorginho relegated to the bench as the manager prefers the French star in that position. 

The former Leicester City star was photographed in training at the Cohbam training ground tackling and breaking play. 

These pictures were shared by the official Twitter handle of Chelsea with the caption: "N'Golo covering every blade of grass in training Flexed biceps"
