Player Topic: Kevin De Bruyne (2015/16)

[jaiguruKun]

The only player to emerge with any credit from the last two games.
Will we ever see him, Silva and Kun together in full flight?

Apart from setting up two of our best chances

Two chances don't make up for endlessly giving the ball away and making stupid flicks in a position where ball possession counts.

Ok

 

[super_city_si]

im not sure what hes meant to do. Tonight we were away from home and a point would do. We should have sat back, played deep and countered. With an open field in front of him De Bruyne is a master. With a packed Italian defence and a tempo slower than a last dance at a seniors disco theres not much he can do.

Ok

Ok

You can't disagree that he's been utter none existent the last 4 weeks? He gave the ball away today more than any other player, his crossing was turd and his corners were shite.

Navas gets hounded about the same things, and de Bruyne isn't getting use to the team (as some would say) as he hit the ground running in his first 6 games. The truth is he's been utter dog shit lately, but he made one good pass today over the top so all is forgiven by a few.

If Sterling and Agueros finishing would have been better, he would gave had 2 assists. Can't deny that either.

That is just untrue. Statistically untrue.

And he was our best player today outside of Fernandinho and Hart. He created our most chances today and is our top chance creator this season. What else can he do but create chances for team-mates? You're the type of 'supporter', and I use that term loosely, that looks for a scapegoat no matter what.

Yup, we have to be careful that Pellegrini doesn't run him into despondency, shoehorning Toure and Sterling.

I still believe Sterling will be a fantastic player for us. Toure should have been sold in the summer, he is stinking the place out. I'd normally have more tolerance for a player who had done for us what Yaya has, but after cakegate he can fuck off.

 

[itisrising]

Absolute wank once again today, although I think he's tired. Wouldn't start him against Soton.

Did you actually watch the match or are you looking for a scapegoat? Our most creative player yet again.

I do agree that he may be tired; tired of player that can't finish simple chances.

To be fair Aguero's chance was down to good defending, the point is the last 4 weeks de Bruyne has gone missing, to say he created 2 good chances. Hell even Navas creates 2 good chances on a shit day but we all still call him shit.

 

[Blankomania]

He created fernandinhos chance in the first half.
Layed a great ball for aguero (who was poor tonight but getting no stick)
Took the corner for fernandos header which was pushed onto the post
set sterling up with a sitter

Apart from agueros chance when marchisio passed it back he set up all of our chances.

That system requires some discipline from the players though.

 

[Chrisdunk]

These Silva fanboys are pathetic. On another day he would've gotten 3 assists today. He created 4 clearcut chances Fernandinho, Sterling, Kun & Fernando all failed to take. If you're looking for a scapegoat he isn't it. Unlike Silva he actually performs in Europe.

 

[Silva_Spell]

He's a supporting actor. We need our headliner, Silva, back asap

Silva dictates the game, De Bruyne gets the final pass. Together they'd be great.

If you actually knew anything about me at all you'd know that I'm critical of most players when they're shit/none existent.

So please keep your smarmy remarks to yourself thank you!

No, it requires coaching and instruction. These are top class professional players. they can play that was if instructed.

83% pass completion rate.

mmm...

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

His part in their goal was a fucking joke. We have to start defending from the front. We are just not working hard enough as a team.
