Kevin De Bruyne - 2017/18 performances

[malg]

Who would you rather have?

KDB or Salah?

On current firm, Salah. Watched him closely last night, and he was very, very good. KdB looks shattered to me, absolutely worn out.

Agreed lost that little bit of cutting edge and quality with his final ball. Salah is like Vardy a few years ago interms of everything going in for him.

And why is this? Not because of his decisions.

And yet I’m the dick head City guy being roasted.

Salah was left one on one against his man and yards and yards of space. If KDB was afforded that luxury he would look a million dollars too.

 

[Gabriel]

De Bruyne looks tired but even last night he was highly influential and strong in midfield. The second time he surged passed Firmino and as brought down by him was yet another turning point in the game.

He's been wonderful this season. Personally, once we've won the league, I'd give him the rest of the season off. He needs a break, and has a world cup summer. I don't want him curving it next season.

Wow. Not for me - Kev every day of the week. Last night Kev was visibly knackered. Lets see Salah repeating this for a few seasons

I worry. Kev looks fucked, he's undoubtedly going to be a big part of Belgium's WC as well, which means very little rest before next season.

It's clear he could use a break. But in the discussion Salah or KDB, Kevin every time. In the world of football, he's unique. He has qualities I've not seen around, his peripheral vision, his pass distribution,... no one else is on that level.

Gundogan won't play much for Germany, just give Kev an extra 2 weeks and have Gundo play the first 2 league games. That's the kind of thing we'll have to do. Then maybe give Silva 2 weeks off after that while KDB returns.

We won't be at our best until a few weeks into the season but it'll be the same for all the top teams, and even worse for the smaller teams with bad depth.
