That's the problem though, he hasn't been 'shit' by any stretch. He's not been fantastic every game as some try and make out but he's certainly been above average for the most part and exceptional in one or two games.Been shit for weeks but so many are afraid to say it probably because of his Brilliant first few games.
It's not bollocks, if you think De Bruyne was up to the standard he set earlier in the season, or up to the standard set for him, then you have low expectations of the man who was the figurehead of our attack last night and was completely outshone by his opposite number.
This. He put in at least three crosses that if Sterling or Aguero were on their game would have tucked away easily (one Sterling should have just tapped in). He gave away the ball on a few occasions but those were more down to misunderstandings with his teammates (a player would start a run just as De Bruyne passed to them or the opposite).Some of his passes were fantastic. There is plenty of criticism of DeBruyne & Sterling on here but they were playing in a shit team. If they had been playing against us instead Liverpool would have scored fucking ten.
We played better when he wasn't in the team against Sevilla .
He`s a good player .
But his forms gone down hill since the derby a month ago .
His form did dip but that was due to that old sod running him into the ground & playing him when he should have been rested. He was clearly struggling v the rags.
Don't undrrstand any criticism of him yesterday. Not sure who would have looked any better in that shite.
I'll rephrase. In my opinion it's bollocks and in terms of standards, you have standards that are MUCH higher than mine. Nothing wrong with that, but it's why we often disagree quite strongly on issues like this. I don't need 9/10 every week. But I can't deal with 0/10 either.
He played a very good game regarding the circomstances. I"ve watched the game again last night. Liverpool was pressing a lot , they played like we played Sevilla.Been shit for weeks but so many are afraid to say it probably because of his Brilliant first few games.
Hmmmm who to believe.. You Ray (who said he was shit) or Lampard and Carragher who said he was amazing yesterday.....Been shit for weeks but so many are afraid to say it probably because of his Brilliant first few games.
Hurt himself when he went in for a tackle on the halfway line and landed badly on his knee or hip couldn't see properly.
On the end of tunnel cam the physios are walking with him
Do you just wait around for matches where he doesn't get a goal/assist & recycle this post or something of a similar ilk?Remember when some fans on here were saying he's better than David Silva?! Bwaaahahaha! Football fans, bloody hell.
