17 | Kevin De Bruyne - 2023/24

[Galvanoth]

Already deciding games, not quite sure we'd win that if it wasn't for his assist.

 

[Vienna_70]

What more is there to say about the great man?

He’s a fucking genius with a football at his feet.

The pale Pele indeed.

 

[freshie]

 

[MCFCFanTX]

Simply, the greatest.

 

[skillman]

Whole team elevates whenever he gets on the pitch. Our shoulders go back and the opposition’s slump forward. Such an impact before he’s even touched the ball.

King.

I'm probably saying this with blue tinted shades but he's got to be the best player in the world surely?

In my opinion he is

Who is really in the conversation? The messi v Ronaldo era is long gone

Obviously the next billed superstars are Mbappe and Haaland for the new era.

Mbappe isn't as good as Kev, let's be real. Although to be fair to him he's done well at the world cup but I don't think the world cup is a high level. Biggest stage, absolutely, but a top club like us would whack any nation. Mbappe would need to prove it in a much more competitive league to be in the conversation.

Haaland is a freak goalscorer though, averaging a goal a game in the premier league, in Germany, for a poor national team and in the champions league. It's ridiculous. You could a make a case for him because he pretty much does his job on the pitch better than anyone in the game, the numbers don't lie, and they're consistent on every level. It's not like there's even a drop-off in the games to goal ratio when he playing for his national team who are a bit shit.

De Bruyne right now has a certain level of ability and footballing IQ that I think is the best in football.

You've aint seen nothing yet, when he shows up with ginger dreadlocks...

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

He is - until the awards are dished out and then there's always another 'preferred' winner!

[applejuice]

Always the best

Needs to find a way to influence games more regularly

 

[MANCtrigger]

Needs to find a way to influence games more regularly

Like..."must try harder".
There were games he played with 0 assists/goals.
Very, very disappointing.
How much assists does he need to go on top this season? He'll get there.

 

[skillman]

Messi really is a freak. The only downside to the Pep era is that he never came in 2021 (or earlier). Would’ve been a dream.

 

[Silva2021]

2nd in that list is achievable for him

 

[M Gaudino]

has played 238 minutes this season (so 2.6 full games or so) and has a goal and 4 assists.

 

[skillman]

2 assists and a goal tonight. What a bloke.

 

[Mr HJ]

9 Games - with 8 assists and 2 goals - the best and our game changer. 3 more years of a fit Kev is something we all must hope for. To replace him will be the hardest job the club has ever done.

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Making up fot lost time , the fact we kept in contention without him is invaluable , he is a fresh as a daisy after his lay off and will terrorise teams for the few months

 

[Worsleyweb]

2nd in that list is achievable for him

He will be second in a month
