Kevin De Bruyne 2016/17

[Vienna_70]

We're off to America tomorrow, so tonight we're staying in a hotel near airport.

Mrs Vienna was talking to our grandson on the 'phone and sang, "Oh, Kevin de Bruyne!"

Then we heard someone outside our room, who must have been passing, reply"Oh Kevin de Bruyne!"

Well, it made us laugh, anyway.

Yep, you can see KDB catching up with great speed when Lukaku scored his second vs Ireland:

Its funny how non of his detractors noticed this. .
Can't be many attacking players on this planet who would be prepared to run the whole length of the field at full speed in an effort to stop the opposing teams counter attack.
I don't think I've ever seen an attacking Manchester City player, at any level do that , in over 30 years of watching football.Older Blues, who saw Bell play live, may have their own views on this partc point..
A fantastic player who is only going to get better and better as he properly adjusts to the particular demands of both premiership and top class international football.

Not very consistent though

Different level tonight. To anyone in the tournament

Agreed, I haven't seen anyone else boss a game in this tournament the way De Bruyne has tonight. We're very lucky to have him. Hope he gets a goal tonight for his efforts.

I seriously believe that with the next 3 years he may well be the best player in the world if Pep shows him the way !

He was good tonight, but not sure about Belgium. A big win in the end but it was a bit iffy for a while. Belgium's midfield is wide open, partly because they play Hazard and De Bruyne. It would be a risk worth taking if they dropped Lukaku because he wastes so much of their good approach work.
