17 | Kevin De Bruyne - 2024/25

TBH the only player who has the ability to save this season is Kev.
It's not only about playing at a high level, I am talking more about his leadership abilities and I think his presence on the pitch plays a role not only for our players but other ones.
I remember like 2 years ago, KDB shouted at Rodri during the game, when Rodri made mistake. Leicester game if I remember correctly.
We need that Kev right now. Someone needs to push players
But he needs games to regain form, he seemed sharp when season started, I don't think he has aged, but out of form definitely. Hopefully no injuries till the end of the season.

Needs to stay at the Etihad this break and get some fitness. If he travels I will be annoyed. If he gets going just might be able to Salvage the season. Looked miles off it today. Like a month off it.
I wonder if he is up for it, got a lot of miles on the clock. He is going to need to dig deep.
Team Pschologist has his work cut out.

start him for spurs, and let his fitness grow in the game, when we were defending a 1-0 yesterday bringing him on for savio was a mistake, and weakened the right side.
Not.Kev fault he has been out so long he is rusty

Think the guy is done. He is 33, has won everything there is to win and is obviously thinking about going to some circus league to chill.
He is broken, time to move on, he should not be starting games, cameos are his forte now.start him for spurs, and let his fitness grow in the game, when we were defending a 1-0 yesterday bringing him on for savio was a mistake, and weakened the right side.

He’s not fit and he’s currently playing a bit part in a team that’s playing under the kosh.
Time to turn all the alarms off for a week or two and see where we are, and he is, in 2025.
Yes, he is in the twilight of an exceptional career, but he still has much to offer. However, a virtuoso conductor can’t do much with an orchestra that’s currently playing out of tune.
For the first 35 mins of the Brighton game, we were exceptional and, as has been the case for some time, we simply did not turn dominance of possession and attacking into goals. Kev was not on the field for the “City circa 2023” cameo appearance, but was somehow expected to change a game that was slipping away from us when the “City circa late 2024” was on its heels!
There’s always a chance, and never say never, but he was the least of our concerns in the end. The term “hot knife thru butter” seems to apply to our defence at times, and the inability to get the ball away from the danger area is alarming at times. That isn’t a KDB problem
