17 | Kevin De Bruyne - 2022/23 Performances

[EdersonsSmiley]

Two bits of absolute quality won us the game but think it's time to accept he's lost that x-factor.

Right at the start of the second half, Haaland won it wide left and played in into Kevin for a one two in behind and Kevin underhit the pass by about 10 yards.

He used to make those passes in his sleep a few years ago but he just can't do it any more which is such a shame.

If anything he still has the X Factor - in that you've made a perfect example of how he has the X factor.

No the x-facor to me was playing passes no one else in the league could.

His finish and cross today were good but any of our attackers could have done them.

Ok. I mean, i think you're wrong, in that that finish was fucking amazing, the smarts to anticipate it, and the run before the pass was perfect and the the pass was perfect - but honestly i'm so happy i couldn't care less!!

He is being asked to do a different job with Haaland, playing as a second striker/presser, with the wingers playing as the wide midfielders. Means he finds himself further up the field, often more central, and at greater speed thank out wide with the opportunity to swing in that killer KDB behind the defence pass.

That said, this has, before tonight, been one of his less stellar seasons. Here’s hoping he’s coming into some form!

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

End of that he's like a GTA character = I dont give a fuck

 

[FantasyIreland]

The usual......anonymous and a passenger for much,but a moment or two of brilliance.

"Finished"

Said by some losers on the match day thread.

He's my age for fucks sake. He's not gonna control the game. He's only going to WIN IT FOR US!

It's been said on this thread too. They did the same when he had a lean spell before also. We have some absolute fuckin weapons among us, Can you imagine having some of these shithouses next too you in a battle.
