That is what makes De Bruyne Great, and why Lukaku will be one day. The desire. 

 

You don't see it in Hazard. He seems very content in life. Almost like a joker laid back character. Like he knows he is great. De Bruyne wants to show you he is.

Perfecto!!!! Desire is right now the Keyword that differentiates the 3 ...

It was the homecoming he'd probably been dreaming about for years.

 

He left us, and England as a flop viewed by the world. He's returned a king, and proved it today. You could see it when Lukaku scored against us too. He got super emotional. These guys have a fire in them because of Mourinho, and they hate him(US by extension). That is what makes De Bruyne Great, and why Lukaku will be one day. The desire.

And sometimes that Desire can be misinterpreted as weaknesses by fools. How many times did we hear or read that Lukaku and Kdb did not want to fight for their places. HOGWASH!!!

Looked like he was crying at the end of the game.
Been waiting for a long time to prove Chelsea wrong? Well if so, then I hope his vendetta against us is over lol.

I think he should only be proving Mourinho wrong. Maybe in the next Manchester derby!

[BlueLyon 9,359]

He looks like proper Lamps replacemen. Can score, assist, move well.

Such a all round player with high efficiency. 

But yeah we had to fuck all up.

Lol, fuck you Mourinho, seriously. What a fucking idiot. De Bruyne was like a hot knife through butter leading up to some of those goals. A ready-made replacement for Lampard in his prime. An even worse transfer story then Torres - and I mean that.

I think Mourinho is now way too cowardly to play attacking players like De Bruyne. Since Madrid, he'd rather hide behind players who will 'work-hard' for him, yet still throw those same players under a bus at first sight of not getting his way in a transfer window. Unbelievable.

I would love to hear what the guys who scouted the likes of Piazon and so on have to say.

Going to be an absolute monster for Pep.

 

His ceiling could end up being higher than Hazards.

we've been saying since he was playing for Genk that he's better than Hazard. he really, really, really is, by far better than Hazard. by far.

Lampard, Beckham and Silva in one player. He has the outstanding qualities of all of them. He crosses as well as Becks, could easily get 20 goals a season from midfield like Lampard, and already is showing he's got the vision, creativity and technique of Silva. Lavish praise, but I say that's a realistic assessment. If i wanted to exaggerate i'd compare him to Iniesta instead of Silva but he lacks the wisdom & close control of the former.

What other player is capable of the 20+ goals and 20+ assists we're going to see every season? Messi?

He was ours for 9m€. Now he wouldn't be ours for 90m€. Seems legit.

Anyway.

He was bad against Swindon in September 2013, the game in which Torres scored, so there you have it, good riddance. Also his 16m£ fee almost covers Matic transfer. He doesn't want to fight for his place, look at Mata, Schurrle and Oscar #ThrowbackJanuary2014

^^ Good memories. Also "from what I saw Schurrle is better than him" and "we can't have two non-working Belgians in the squad, between Hazard and KdB it's obvious who should we choose".

The last part actually happened and I actually spend a day to fight on Twitter against it. Even against certain Dan Levene who most know very well. Now I think you have to be really brainwashed to believe that you can only have one creative player and the rest are donkeys but that's what Mourinho does to you

Well I know that De Bruyne has the most assists (26) out of the top European leagues since 2014.

Messi is second with 22...

Every game that De Bruyne plays makes us look even more foolish, when it was Mourinho who was the real fool. He sold our future for one title; a title win which was built on a foundation of shite (which he ensured to destroy before leaving).

De bruyne was a joy to watch just based on the highlights 

[sutro 1,026]

Last night in motd:

Silva was one of the best midfielders in the PL for the past 4-5years,with KDB city got an upgrade for that!!

 

I would love to have Silva......but we let the upgrade go for peanuts.

This is gonne be worse than united and pogba

Abramovich ordered Chelsea to sign De Bruyne

 

“One of the best players I’ve scouted is Kevin De Bruyne,” De Visser wrote in his new book Master Scout, which has been serialised by Het Nieuwsblad.

“Kevin was 18. Even then he had a great technique. I had rarely seen such a thing. He was an attacking midfielder with a superb first touch and immediately moved the game, created openings. For me, he was an instant revelation.

"I asked for the tapes of De Bruyne and took them to Chelsea. I showed them to the chief scout.

“He said he liked De Bruyne but added there are plenty of players like him.

“I said 'No, this boy has something extra'. I called the director of Genk [Dirk Degraen].

“He told me many more teams were watching him. I had to take action, I had to be bold and I took the tape to the big boss of Chelsea, Roman Abramovich.

“Roman is a genuine football lover. He not only wants to win, he wants to see beautiful football. He watched the tape, didn't say anything, but called the scouting department.

“’That De Bruyne guy has to come’, he said. If the big boss likes you, that is of course a great way to make your entry."

 

 

Interesting...

[LukakutoStamford 779]

It is worse than Pogba at 18 because Pogba was still raw and he was nowhere near where he is today. Debruyne was 21 and had ready had 10 10 for Werder and led Belgium in WC qualifying with 8 point in 8 matches. It was obvious that De Bruyne had a world class ceiling. 

 

And if if you back to when KDB was let go there are posts of mine that said that Chelsea would rue letting him because he would at Bayern/Real/Barca. Granted it's worse because he's at Shitteh

You've got to really worry about the damage De Bruyne will do under Guardiola. His talent is there to see, he's got statistics to back him up and he's the right age where his development will only continue. That trio of Sterling, Aguero and De Bruyne will be potentially as formidable as the MSN and BBC trios of this generation. Not forgetting magicians like David Silva pulling the strings behind them 

Just a thought anyway.. Could all go balls up too (I hope)

At this moment after all the screw up from our previous manager I could care less if City become amazing. 

As long it ain't Liverpool, Arsenal and United I'm happy. 

Any other team that wins besides these 3 I'm relieved.

I'm not sure how Sterling could ever be so highly thought of. I think he has a much bigger job on his hands than most think.

Think his potential is there, clearly not a finished product by any means. Under Pep he could reach that potential.
