Kevin De Bruyne | Appreciation thread

Hope he comes on as a sub.

Absolute joke , let’s all miss our trains , trams and buses home .

What would you have done differently ?

 

[pride in battle]

They should have done his goodbye before the match. I can’t be fucked to stay behind after the game, especially with the coop having a gig on.

That's the spirit, shut the door on the way out

 

[blueju]

Never dreamed we’d even win an FA cup as a kid, never mind getting to see some of the best players in the world play in the old sky blue, never mind seeing one of the best midfielders ever spend the best years of his life at City.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Hope he comes on as a sub.

Would imagine he will start and go off for maximum gratitude from the crowd.

Earlier kick off , played it tomorrow night

The stadiums going to be empty by time he’s on the microphone.

Do you really think City had a choice? Some loons on here !

As long as you are not there all is good.

And as usual the match going fan comes bottom of the priority list and the fans suck it up and do fuck all about it , apart from keep coughing up more money and getting shafted week in and week out .

PL insisted we play tonight when the club requested a similar treatment afforded to Spurs to move the game.

No help given .

That’s because they’re in Europe though. They aren’t going to allow a date because The Boss is playing next door and the transport will be chaos. People either choose to stay for the goodbye or they don’t.

So you agree its not City's fault ?

 

[Fordyboy46]

City need to win tonight for it to be a great send off for Kev, if not I can see it being half empty when he comes back out. Sad but that seems to reflect the mood at present

Accepted, but as the rags are likely to get all the favours going to make sure they get CL next season, did it really matter ?

And spurs being spurs ( admittedly having injury issues too ) will no doubt capitulate anyway.

 

[TheGhost]

Thankyou for the amazing memories Kevin. Some of your vision was legendary. A true City great.
Is it not time for Jack Grealish and Phil Foden to step up and replace him?

At least one of them isn’t a Real One. The other one apparently has a health issue.

Not surprising when we are suing the pants off them. They will be as obstructive as possible for many years because they are massively stupid.

The majority of people stayed for Zabba’s and Yaya’s send offs , Yayas was after a nothing game weeks after we had won the league

If we don’t see a repeat of that then it shows what a fickle , complacent and entitled set of supporters we’ve become

Probably the greatest we will ever see play for our club and people can’t be arsed to stay for 30 minutes

I’m hoping we are better than that

 

[James2401125]

I think the kev celebrations should of of been done before the match the lap of honour afterwards obviously

 

[Mike N]

You’d have to be a particular fickle blue to clear off like a smacked-arse if we don’t win tonight.

Work, school or buses are all excuses tonight. If we had secured the league tonight then everyone would have stayed. We all know that.

Win, lose or draw tonight we have to give our greatest ever player, in my opinion, a fantastic send off. He’s been hugely involved in producing success like we used to dream about.

We probably won’t see his like again.
