N'Golo Kante was pivotal in Leicester City's title-winning campaign last season and that is becoming even clearer this season. Their midfield is having so many loop-holes and the opposition is able to identify them with ease.

Drinkwater is not able to handle the entire midfield on his own and the others are not able to help him. Amartey is good but just not good enough to replace Kante in the Leicester City squad. The Ghanian is still young and has a lot to learn and this is affecting a Leicester City a lot this season.

Why Leicester City did not try to sign a more experienced central midfielder is going to remain as a question in every Leicester City fan's mind but who would try to question the manager who did the impossible last season? If they don't get things sorted in the midfield, they are bound to have a tough time in the league this season.
