Kevin De Bruyne | Appreciation thread

Are we allowed a petition to bring him back???? It's sickening to see him shine in another top team, while we look appalling in a game he likely would have been able to change for us

I keep commenting on his FB page that he’s had his fun now and needs to come back home. Not sure he reads it though!

 

[Colin Bells Boots]

I watched the game especially to see Kevin, and I wasn't disappointed.

I think the Italian league will suit him and I am really pleased for him.

He will always be a very special player in my eyes and genuinely thrilled to have seen him at his pomp.

 

[Jonny Blue]

Not in my remaining lifetime we won’t. Gutted we didn’t sign Wirtz he potentially could be as good as Kev.

Wirtz as good as Kev?! That is a massive stretch in my book.

Wonder why he didn’t change many games last season? Since he announced he was leaving he got far too many starts than his form deserved. It was time to go, simple

Kev going has left a bit of a void. How do you replace KDB? It was probably the right time for him to go but I miss seeing him.

King Kev during Belgium press conference, ‘I spoke with the club(ManCity)and said that if I stayed in Europe and kept playing in the UCL I’d probably face City in the Champions League. It’ll be fun but also a bit strange, because this time I’m on the other side. But City will always be my club that doesn’t change’
Once a blue, always a blue.

Will be so hard watching him play against us

But so good to welcome him home

 

[SamTheGuru]

I have nothing but respect for KDB. Through his injuries and his hot and cold performances, he had nothing but passion for us. KDB was probably the ultimate person for going "Oh he is playing shit" or "He is clearly unfit" and then pulling something out the bag on a godly level. He did this time and time and time again. He didn't control games on the level of Silva and Yaya but what he did do was constantly provide a threat as soon as he was on the pitch which instantly changed the dynamic. No matter who we were playing against, KDB could spray a pass into open space from anywhere meaning whoever we were playing against had to think twice. His drive is something we need to find in new players. Always a legend.

I miss him too. He, Gundo and Vinnie have been my favourite players over the last decade.

[GX Blue]

He just scored a pen to put Napoli 0-1 up.

Glad we found a place in our 25 man squad for Kalvin Phillips though instead of Kev.

 

[MichaelBBack]

Ohhh Kevin de Bruyne

 

[jimharri]

Another Cole Palmer thread incoming, I think.
