Kevin de Bruyne( pronounced in Belgium to rhyme with 'ocean liner' not 'beef sirloin'-as Sly Sports think!) is the signing which can make all the difference as far the Champs League is concerned.
Bringing in the Bundesliga's most creative player is a kick up the arse to City-haters Bayern Munich, who, through their link with Volkswagen, did everything they could to stop this deal.
You only had to watch Wolfsburg in the German Cup Final to see all KdB's skills-brilliant close control, including rabona,tremendous range of passing,accurate power shooting. Borussia Dortmund knew all about this and, with a lenient ref, they kicked him any time they could. But he just got back on his feet and got on with bossing the game.
One of the main things he brings is sharp football intelligence. Where Navas often seems unsure who to pass to and when, KdB's quick thinking and decisive.
Just seen his interview-what a contrast to Rag flop,di Maria.He speaks English well, is keen to fit in( says fellow-countryman Vinny will help him settle) and is very calm and relaxed.
