When N'Golo Kante arrived at Leicester's Belvoir Drive training ground for the first time last summer, the story goes that he was mistakenly directed towards the schoolboy players. The little Frenchman did not look like much at 5ft 6ins, but he soon set about defying the doubters, and over the next nine months he was a towering influence in Leicester's historic season.
By the end of it, Steve Walsh, the head of recruitment who brought Kante to Leicester from French side Caen, had made a habit of telling the same joke. "We play three in midfield," it went. "We play Danny Drinkwater in the middle with Kante either side."

We've all had that late night where we caught a random Thursday night concert in Los Angeles, got home at 1 a.m., then woke up four hours later to rush to work and write a story about the strongest drinks Starbucks has to offer, absolutely needing one of those drinks yourself.
While we all have our favorite drinks that help keep us awake and functioning through our hectic days, I thought I'd find out which Starbucks drinks give you the biggest jolt.
The first thing I learned was that even though Starbucks will give you whatever you want, they don't recommend, nor advertise drinks with more than five shots of espresso.
The Navratris are here, which not only means friends and families getting together to celebrate, but for those who fast for the nine days, they need to take extra care about what they can or cannot have. But one thing’s for sure, each and every ingredient allowed – according to Hindu religious diktats – is good for health.
