No Blue gives a fuck.

No Blue gives a fuck.
Yet somehow Reus who plays in the same league, is world-class.

When was the first quote made? I am guessing before the season was ended and he impressed me more.
It's also very selective quoting. I don't think my general appraisal of the situation has changed that much. It's more City's signings and formation has changed the impact he will have. Playing in a 4-5-1 and being given time to whip crosses in is very different than in a 4-4-2.
Do I think De Bruyne is in the same class as Messi, Ronaldo, Robben, Muller, Reus, Neymar or even the level below like Bale/Hazard/Di Maria? No I don't. However, none of those players are available and City have different personal now. As a 10 is he in the same class as Silva, Iniesta and James Rodriguez (somebody that I was wrong about too)? No.
He is better than Navas and the way you are stretching teams and whipping in crosses makes him far more dangerous than Navas.
You're right, it is selective quoting. There's a whole heap or whoppers in this thread to choose from.

"Just because Kevin has had a medical in Manchester and has travelled to Manchester City's training facility dont read into this that he will sign for them....Kevin is still 100% committed to Wolfsburg." - Allofs.
Didn't two German teams reach the Champions League final recently and aren't Germany the world champions most of which team play in that league.
Unreal.
Bizarre, but not totally unsurprising as he's signing for us.
And you had better be fucking right.
