Exquisite.

But… but… isn’t he finished?

I really think he'll be regarded as the best Premier League player of all time by the time he retires.

Plays for City. People will never allow that narrative sadly. I see most still think Gerrard is better than him ffs.

But imagine if he had played for Liverpool, imagine the narrative then. It would have been quite different.

Pep was right about Kev and getting the simple things right. Look at how well he has played since that comment. Kev is an extremely intelligent player.

F*cking NO chance!!!

I bet if you asked any mainstream media hack or rag top fan to list their top 5 midfielders in PL history Kev would struggle to make the top 5. They would all put Gerrard, Keane, Viera and Lampard in there and then reluctantly put Kev in there. Its just the way it is and the narrative they will always keep spinning.

Scholes also.

Couldn't time a tackle to save his life, but scored the odd Worldie free kick and played percentage passes into space. Hyped to f*ck by the media, same a Keane and Gerrard.

Kev is head and shoulders above those three.

Without doubt, but he plays in a sky blue shirt. I remember when he first came Kev and thinking to myself he was the closest thing id seen to Zidane. Maybe not as flashy as Zidane, but they way he moved with the ball, his body position and how he was able to pick out passes. Not saying he's as good as Zidane, but there isnt much in it. Its a bit like David Silva, only real people who ever game him the credit he deserved was City fans and ex players who could appreciate what he did.

Kev needs to win us a champions league before comparing him to Zidane. I know it’s a bit daft to judge players on what they win, but Zidane performed in the biggest of games.
