Best DMC in the world!!

Ahh, more De Jong hate. Obviously fans who didn't support us before 2008. Unbelievable.

We need players like him though! our team is top end heavy which leaves defense exposed.

Name one team in world football that plays wit a player as one-dimensional as hum
Sergio Busquets for barcalona
he never goes on long darting runs or scores goals, just wins it and gives it
 
I dont know if anyone agrees with me, but since he came back from the world cup he is a better player. Last year too many times he would win a terrrifc ball. then fire it out of bounds, up the pitch right at the goalie or just turn it over.

I not sure its the Dutch coach or some of the players (I believe the latter). They told him, just win the ball, then find an attacking player, with a safe pass, keeping possession is more important than making an world class pass.


He just seems a much more mature and under control player than when he left.

What does not rating De jong as the best DM in the world have to do with how long people have been City fans? If it's so 'obvious'?<br /><br />-- 23 Sep 2010, 22:50 --<br /><br />

Chips in with a few goals and assists here and there. But he is also overrated to fuck.

Play De jong in the big games, not needed against bottom half sides.
 
I love De Jong but Essien for me is right up there.

will be a great battle this weekend - hope we load the midfield

Is also technically brilliant and passes the ball and dictates play like Xavi (hence he is called the apprentice)

Not one team plays with a player as one-dimensional as De Jong

How is he one-dimensional ? just because he doesnt score ? He has a role to do which is to screen the defense and he does it very well . its not as if he is playing behind the striker....
 
I'm a huge fan of NDJ, i think his footballing ability is very underrated because he keeps it simple. He has a brilliant first touch, his passing is good, wait until our full-backs begin pushing on a bit more, i reckon it'll get a bit more expansive.

Easy to knock him, but the ability to keep the ball isn't as simple as it looks, especially in English football, you have to be willing to take it in tight areas, and be 100% confident in your ability, he knows when to take a touch, where to put it, when to play it first time, he's just very assured in possession.

He makes the odd reckless foul, that comes with the territory, Makelele took players down all the time, easy to forget because by now you just remember the reputation.

I'm not sure i'd go as far as the best in the World though.
