Kevin De Bruyne - 2017/18 performances

[Rolee]

He’s an excellent player and therefore will always at a minimum have moments of quality but I thought he was poor tonight. I’m of the opinion that Pep is using him a bit irresponsively and not managing his minutes enough like he is doing well with Silva.

DeBruyne has played just 50 minutes more than Silva so far.

Poor? Some of you don’t seem to understand how the game is played. He won a number of key balls which was a significant contribution in the match- all from pressing and anticipation of passing options

Grew into the game after a sloppy 20 minutes.

The keyest( don't care if that's not a word I'm using it) of the key balls he won being the one he won on the edge of our box to start the counter for Aguero's goal.

You cannot really argue with this post.
He will constantly keep trying to do what he thinkx is best ,often on pure instinct,and doent let his head drop if he fails,but watchout opponents, whoever you are,when it works.

He went from fucking useless, to world class.

Which is what world class players can do.

Yup. Probably still feeling the after effects of touching the ball 150 (IIRC) times at WBA.

Thing with him is he can drop a level or 2 from his best form and he still is influential

I'm a little worried as 2 years running now his performances have tanked come November, so hopefully the last two games have been a blip this year.

That being said, with the talent and MOVEMENT around him now, he only needs one or two quality moments to completely devastate a team.

An interesting month ahead, I'm hopeful he's the standout performer on Sunday and we can all relax a little.
