#17 | Kevin De Bruyne - 2021/22 Performances

Reasons like that goal is why you keep him on for the full 90

 

[RobertVentura]

Got us the draw but cost us the win in so many other moments.

He botched so many straight forward through balls to out people through on goal today, including one which would have put Walker and Foden in 2v1 vs Alisson in stoppage time.

Simulatneously doesn't look fit, and looks exhausted. Still, he's going to play 180 minutes for Belgium in the Nations League finals next so he'll be even more tired when he gets back.

No. He is getting there. Needs games to get back into his rhythm - listen to Pep. Or remember his past injuries, and how long it took him - each time - to get back to his best.

Not fully fit still, hopefully martinez only plays him in 1 of the games.

Great goal today to get us the draw. Looks heavy legged and stiff to me.

 

[Damanino]

too many passes he lost, too short, too long, or straighaway to Pool player. and even if he wasnt pressed closely and had a bit of time to make the pass still couldnt pass to City player breaking down attacks with this and losing the ball.
good goal tho he is still a match winner/game changer, but frustrating to see him play about 50% below his top level.

he is not yet in form, might carry some injury. quite a slow season start from him, also he arrived back injured, not much pre season, we may have even played him when we shouldnt early on... (Spurs game)

I prefer him as the false 9 over anyone else because of his strength and because I think others are better suited lately in midfield in terms of control.

KDBs best assets is shooting around the box and his passing. He can still do that as a false 9 but let the younger guys do all the running in midfield.

His fitness levels shouldn’t excuse his poor decision making and quality of pass by the way.

He needs game time, but Martinez will flog him into the ground like he did in the Euro's. Entirely the reason he got injured in the first place.

His fitness levels shouldn’t excuse his poor decision making and quality of pass by the way.

Said it in the match thread; his brain is a split-second ahead of his legs. Once he gets himself fully fit he'll be unplayable.

Really wish he would pull out of internationals, he gets fucked every time and he is not right from the euros
