De Bruyne?

Still reckon kdb is over-rated. Mourinho doesn't normally get his views on players wrong so he shined in a 1 horse league? Could be an expensive flop... Or a cheap revelation

He fucked Mata off and he was arguably the Rags best player last season

Mourinho goes for power and aggression over skill and finesse, that's why both Mata and KDB didn't fit into his plans

Time for you to steady the ship on here mate, where are we on Pogba and KDB to your knowledge?
 
When you play one striker, you need goal scoring midfielders. Navas is a terrible goal scoring midfielder with the worst shot-to-goal rate in the Premier League (2nd is... Delph), De Bruyne is an excellent goal scoring midfielder with a good long range shot. Adding De Bruyne allows us to compensate for the lack of a second striker - he, Silva and Sterling will hopefully bring plenty of goals.
Exactly, and add in that the majority of the time that one striker playing alongside them will be Aguero...

Mata is warming bench now ffs, and they got huge sum for defensive liability, and Chelsea won league. Hazard and Fabregas also must be power and aggression not skill and finesse lol. So shitty logic
 
Navas is under rated. And what about Bony. I'd play a front 3 of Bony, Aguero and Sterling.

We would never, ever play with Sergio on the wing and there's absolutely no chance that Bony would play out there. I'm not trying to be mean, but do you know how a 4-3-3 operates? Bony doesn't come into the picture when Aguero is on the pitch while we're in this formation.

I was going to edit my post and add Hazard being the exception to his rule so well done for picking up on that

I was commenting on why he got rid of KDB to get in the likes of Matic not how and why they won the league but well done for twisting it
 
EXCLUSIVE: Manchester City line up £20m swoop for Chelsea reject Kevin De Bruyne

MANCHESTER CITY want to sign £20 million rated Chelsea reject Kevin De Bruyne.

Manuel Pellegrini has target the Belgian as a must-have January signing


City boss Manuel Pellegrini has targeted the Belgian international (above) who only moved to Bundesliga side Wolfsburg in January, as a must have addition to a squad currently hit by injuries and financial fair play restrictions.

He believes that the 23-year-old attacking midfielder who was part of his country’s World Cup finals squad would be a useful addition to a side looking to retain their Premier League title.

De Bruyne joined Chelsea from Genk in January 2012 for £7 million and was heralded as a player destined for greatness at Stamford Bridge.

But the opportunities never came and after just three appearances he was shipped out on loan to Werder Bremen for a season before joining Wolfsburg for £18 million on a permanent deal just under 12 months ago, giving Chelsea a healthy profit.

But City scouts have been impressed by his displays in the Bundesliga and believe at the second time of asking he can become a big hit in the Premier League under Pellegrini.

Wolfsburg will want at least £20 million for the player who has an eye for goals - especially important for City who have been rocked by injuries to their main three strikers, Sergio Aguero, Edin Dzeko and Stevan Jovetic.

City still have to be careful on the buying front after being fined £49 million for breaching financial fair play rules and being restricted during the summer transfer window to a net spend of the same amount.

But De Bruyne will be within the acceptable budget if City can negotiate a deal around the same figure that Wolfsburg paid for the Belgian

From 20 to 60 M in 6 months that's some appreciation!
