17 | Kevin De Bruyne - 2024/25

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Which I mentioned in a previous post. 1 game, 2 if you include the Palace game another poster mentioned. That's his best, is it?

They were examples of him at his best, yes. He helped propel us to winning the league.

Still, you chuck him under the bus if you want. I’ll support him until he’s gone.

P.S. he scored 4 league goals and made 10 assists in the 17 league games he played after coming back from injury.

He also scored 2 CL goals and made 2 assists in the 2 CL game he played.

He also made 5 FA Cup goals too.

#Finished.

"Chucking someone under the bus" is suggesting that a 34 year old with serious injuries may be on a decline?

You can also support a player without lying to yourself about what their current capabilities are too.

Not decline. Finished.

Fuck sake , goal and assist a week or so ago , we are his level

He is not the level where we want to be

football moves on and he is the past....if this isnt his last season here and we dont get his successor this summer then we will start to fall further behind....make no mistake about this...we aint getting top 4 this season unless the board do something big in the winter transfer window....

It has been blatantly obvious for a while that while KDB still has magic in his boots, he simply cannot run any more...and that is the basics of the game....without the ball we are playing with 9 men with him and Gundo. He cannot run, loses possession, cant take the ball on the turn in midfield.....all he now can do is stand around and try and get the ball in space and make a pass..and even then he is struggling....anyone presses him he loses the ball...all you need is eyes to see it.

His level is now below what it is required to be at the top of the league.....and he aint getting any better. ......let him sail off into the sunset and go and get his big pay day in Saudi or America - he has earnt it.

Tbh I wouldn’t get rid of kdb as he can win you a game on his own I mean pirlo was older so Is kroos and modric . With a younger squad around him he can still do the business always remember the ball never gets tired so if Kev can ping 50 yard passes like Koeman then he still can play at the top .

Where did I say he was "finished"?

 

[simon23]

Lol Grealish replacing KDB ? you've got to be kidding me.

Grealish is our biggest failure besides the obvious ones of Phillips and Nunes....

He would also be out the door for me....he aint good enough centrally for a team who wants to win the prem - nowhere near...he has always been hugely overrated and to think he is anywhere near a top level KDB, Gundo, David Silva, or even Gaz Baz or Ferna is delusional and buying into the media hype even more.

Pick on Kevin time as well now?

The greatest Manchester City player of all time?

Unfuckingbelievable

It’s mad, isn’t it?

He finished 3rd highest assist maker in the PL last season despite only playing half the season.

Now he’s playing in a team with no confidence and he’s finished.
