TH on Twitter saying Kev started light work already and potentially back before Christmas.

Would be brilliant news.

Granted I'm in the US but I feel like the fact that City have started like they have without KDB should be a bigger story.

They haven't played against any big team yet.

Newcastle aren't big? They're in the CL!

De Bruyne appreciation post, long live the king (with his snapped hammy). Come back soon!

He has targeted the CWC on 19th December as his return.

Didn't think we would miss him so much.
Haaland really needs those passes in behind the backline to run on to.
Going to be extremely difficult to replace him in the long term

I think Alvarez has it in his locker - certainly execution and vision - but just needs to be more consistent with it. Which he will be as he gets older.

Don’t think we have missed him that much to be honest. It’s only 2 games where we created fuck all and one of those we set up with zero width to play for a draw. All our other games we’ve created shitloads without the great man. If Haaland’s finishing had been up to standard in those games not much would be said about him missing Kev.

At his age we need to be looking for his replacement now not when the decline starts because as we have seen with players eg yaya for instance it is rapid.

We should make sure he has a Colin Bell level welcome back from injury whenever his first game back is.

Apart from flashes of his greatness I don't think we'll ever see Kev at his best again. Age and injury will have taken its toll.

We’ll see Don’t agree. Think as a midfielder he’ll be fine

People always say that about him and he proves them wrong

Just need him for the big games and moments of struggle against low blocks. He should be first subbed off every game he starts if a comfortable lead is established and rested for any sub par cup game.

There is a double game week right after.
