Chelsea star player, N'golo Kante said he does not feel like the best player in the English Premier League (EPL), despite widespread commendations from all angles including his coach, on his sterling contribution to the team since his arrival at Stanford Bridge.


Reacting to comments made by his Manager, Antonio Conte after he scored the winning goal against his former team, Leicester City last week, Kante said he does not feel like the best player.


"I think in football, when one game passes, we need to forget to keep improving. I think last season was amazing for me and the club but this was the past and we need to focus for the future."


"This is what we need to do, and I don't feel like the player of the year. I don't really care about it when I play. I just try to do my best always when I'm on the pitch, and try to improve in training, and give my best in the game."


Conte had said the France international has become a "top player and was justifying the decisions of both the Professional Footballers' Association and Football Writers' Association to name him the best player in the Premier League in 2016-17."
