Another fairly anonymous away performance at Upton Park from Kev.

Our best performances were at the start of the season before we bought De Bruyne. Silva in the middle, Sterling and Navas wide, stretching defences with their pace and leaving space in the middle for Silva to dictate play.

During this period we won 5 out of 5, didn't concede a goal, and Silva was in the form of his life.

Since De Bruyne signed our form has been patchy at best, and our best performance was in Seville when he was dropped.

Of course our problems aren't down to De Bruyne as an individual, but we need to start picking a team that functions. A team with balance. A team that wins.

The team that played the first 5 games was without doubt the best functioning set up we've had this season, maybe it's time to go back to that and get on with winning this league?
 
No player should ever think or be led to believe he is an automatic choice, no player.
 
I've said it in other threads, but we're falling in to the Real Madrid trap of playing our biggest stars. It's time we started playing our best team.
 
Of course he can. Just needs to be rested every third game. Even when he doesn't play well he still creates more chances than most.
 
The biggest two problems with the team at the moment are the continued insistence on starting Yaya and the continued absence of Kompany.
