It is good to win awards but the most important is to win together.
N'Golo Kante
Win, win, win. We will fight for everything.
There have been beautiful achievements of winning titles with my team-mates.
I got my qualification in accountancy, but now I prefer to concentrate on football.
I am not a superstar or an ego. I am just the same as I always was: Someone who plays football.
I think Eden did an amazing job, had an amazing time with Chelsea.
I came to Chelsea to work, to keep learning and to keep improving.
Like everyone I am sometimes tired, but if I need to run I will try to run.
It's a huge honour to be named player of the year... and I want to thank everyone who voted for me.
There have been a lot of French midfielders at Chelsea, but they did it their way and I do it my way and I hope I can do good things at Chelsea.
My team-mates at Chelsea have told me about the 'Kante-facts.' It is just a bit of fun. I obviously do not cover 30 per cent of the surface of the earth.
I give my best for my team-mates. At Leicester it was like that and everyone was focused for the title and we did it. Here at Chelsea it's the same.
My English is improving because I learnt it in one year at Leicester, before it was just in school and on holiday, but I have to learn more, I don't understand it all.
We have some great players at Chelsea and the most important is the goal to win.
I saw Claude Makelele play in the French national team but before when he played at a club I didn't watch him a lot.
When I first went into the senior game I was more of an attaching player to begin with.
It is true that I receive a lot of praise and that is flattering. But I try not to let it affect me.
I have worked with different managers in the past and different systems.
The Premier League is a competition that suits me, which is perhaps more praise to myself. It's more direct, more rhythmic than Ligue 1.
I am at Chelsea and I still have aims here, what is said elsewhere is not important.
I need to keep improving tactically, defensively and offensively for the last pass, the last shot.
My favorite thing is when we lift a trophy. Afterward, we can have a picture of us lifting a trophy. And that picture shows a lot of work, a lot of difficulty and a lot of sacrifice together.
To be honest, it was only when I was first in the French Ligue 1 that my manager and other people started to say, 'Okay, N'Golo recovers a lot of balls.' Before that, I didn't consider it to be my job in the team.
I made the right choice to come to Chelsea.
For two or three years I played on the wing, when I went to Boulogne in 2011, I started playing in the middle as a central midfielder.
I came from amateur football.
I've seen new experiences and new challenges every year. I take them step by step.
It was amazing to have Mourinho call me, even though I'd been warned before how he would appeal to me. I listened to his arguments about why I should move to United. But at that time I was hesitant between staying at Leicester or leaving for Chelsea.
I grew up just as my friends did until 19 before leaving home, and it's because of that I am who I am now.
It is my club, I am a Chelsea player.
Among the clubs that most wanted to recruit me were Marseille and Leicester.
To win the World Cup in our colours was beyond my dreams and something I will never, ever forget.
Whatever you did in the past is quickly forgotten.
My first season in English football was very special. I hope to go on to achieve even more as a Chelsea player.
When you play cards and find yourself in a tricky situation, you'll use some little strategies - and that is what I have done from time to time. That is why my national teammates have called me a cheat. They are not completely right, as I am not the only person to have done it. But they are not wrong either.
I sometimes should be more decisive.
We seem to have some quite good 'FIFA 17' players at Chelsea.
When we have to defend, I just try to recover the ball for the team because it's important, but I always try to go forward when we have the ball.
It's good for me to stay at Chelsea.
When I arrived at Chelsea, I was at Leicester and I had just won my first title with a club.
I am lucky to get the opportunity to play for France and that alone is a huge motivation for me, whenever I go on the pitch.
I try to speak with my team-mates a lot because I need them everyday.
The professional world makes a lot of young amateurs dream, and to go from one to the other can inspire others, like me, when I heard stories of Didier Drogba and Adil Rami, who went from being amateurs to becoming pros.
With Arsenal there was an interest but not a big as other clubs. That is why I didn't go to Arsenal and went to Chelsea.
The main thing is how we play and how we work in training.
We will fight against good teams.
I can always improve. Maybe score more goals and more assists, always help the team the best I can.
Sometimes I can help the team to score, to make the last pass or to get more chances and try to score. Maybe I can do this more often.
To represent one's own country is one of the biggest achievements a footballer can get.
I am happy to make my debut in the Champions League.
