17 | Kevin De Bruyne - 2024/25

[skillman]

Tuesday might be too big of a game to start him. He’s just played 100 minutes in the sun and looked knackered after 35 of them.

But he’ll start. Hope he performs and we don’t regret it.

Aguero didn’t start his send off. FWIW.

It was like watching a 2015 Steven Gerrard performance today. Blustering about the place and wrecking everything in his desperate attempt to be the star man instead of just doing his job as instructed.

Should only be brought on in the 80th minute for these last two games.

I'm dreading Tuesdays installment of the KdB farewell tour.
I don't see him not being selected to start - Pep is, for some reason, blinkered to what we all see.
After 100 minutes today he'd be on the bench for me - but I don't pick the team (thank fuck)

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Don’t play him against Bournemouth, certainly don’t start him anyway. De Bruyne and Doku should be used as super subs, including today.

 

[Paul1970]

Will start on Tuesday and we will struggle . Great player but that today painful .

 

[urban genie]

proved why his time is up


will always love him but it's right he is going

 

[ShaunMCFC]

Playing him just to honour his final games is doing his reputation more damage than good.

 

[red 2 hats]

Been a great player for us, don't think I've ever seen him give the ball away as he did today, shite

 

[CΛL]

Love the man but he must have lost his fucking mind to think he deserves to stay on, he’s beyond finished. Not sure he’d even perform in the MLS at this rate.

Aguero was injured and still came on and scored two. Different gravy.

 

[wattle]

Really sad watching him today. He was dreadful and way off it. He can’t start on Tuesday surely?

 

[Kadour75]

Why is he still starting despite poor performances ?! He is over the hill unfortunately.

He’s going to have to, there’s just no other creative outlet.

To fair he did help us get back in the league game against Palace

 

[pbueno16]

Better start learning Arabic, buddy! (Just joking, hope he goes to MLS)

Always will be a legend, but he’s sad to watch now when you have some of his highlights going through your mind. Still can’t help but think how the last couple seasons would’ve gone had he just gotten the hamstring surgery after the CL final instead of playing through it during preseason and doing it again in the first game of the following season.

This. As bad as KDB has been…who are we going to replace him with? He is the only guy we have in the middle of the pitch who looks to be creative and progressive. We have a midfield that isn’t fit for purpose, removing KDB on Tuesday is unlikely to change that.

For me it has to be Wirtz. If he doesn’t want to join I don’t have a clue what the club does.

If he does I fear the worst

Come off it

 

[ProofMCFC]

Come off it

Come off what? What the fuck have you been watching?
