#5 Chelsea: N'Golo Kante

Chelsea v West Ham United - Premier League
Kanta is arguably Premier League's best central midfielder

The 2016/17 Premier League Player of the Season and PFA Players' Player of the Year is having another solid season with Chelsea. Antonio Conte's men are currently fifth in the Premier League standings, five points behind fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur.

The Blues are hugely inconsistent this season and not playing their best football at the moment. Most of the Chelsea players are below-par this season, definitely barring N'Golo Kante.

He is arguably their best player in the Premier League this season.He averages 3.4 tackles per game this season and is the third best in Premier League in terms of the number of successful tackles. He is the heartbeat of this Chelsea side and without him, they are definitely not the best in Premier League.

They conceded 11 goals and won just seven points in the five games during his absence in October.

Honorable Mention: Eden Hazard and Cesar Azpilicueta
