De Bruyne is at the same level as Aaron Ramsey, Jordan Henderson, Danny Drinkwater, Schneiderlin, Davy Klaassen, Barkley, etc.

We have many better players than him. Fabregas>De Bruyne, Kanté>De Bruyne, Bakayoko>De Bruyne. Oh no, he wouldn't even start in the team here. Good thing he moved too a weaker team for playing time.

You only show up here when KdB has a great game, with terrible banter, lol

Why are all Belgians so butthurt about Bruyne it's not like we didn't want to keep him. He was shipped without getting a fair chance by the Special Twat. 

Imagine if we had Bruyne, Hazard, Mata, Salah, Pedro, Lukaku, Morata in attack. Mourinho sold our future for one title, absolute disgusting.

They say titles are the most important when supporting a club but I want us to have top players and play good football as well, this was a major fuck up and not only with him but with Lukaku and Mata as well.

We can thank fuck Mourinho got binned off by Abramovic he would've sold Christensen and Mousonda by now as well.

Mou made a lot of mistakes and deserved to go but this notion that he sold the future for a league title is utter bullshit. Let's not forget we have won another since and guess how many the sold player's have won between them? I'd give you a clue it starts with z and ends with o.

That said KDB should never have been sold, the others however have been more than justified, especially Lukaku.

The thing is people are far too short sighted in this issue. At the time he was sold I made a post about 250 pages back that he would be world class and Chelsea would rue the decision. All this nonsense about winning two titles is complete garbage. They are independent events. Where this hurt Chelsea was 2013-2014 where having KDB in lieu of Oscar would have won Chelsea the title and it would have made Chelsea set up for the future. KDB is worth 150 million quid right now and Chelsea sold him for what 20 all because Mourinho's ego? 

This is the worst sale I can remember in football and it never needed to happen.

I honesty think this is a pointless topic to discuss, every time he plays good people say oh we shouldn’t of sold him but Mourinho would of killed his development, for me that is a guarantee, KdB would of been playing as a right winger (like Mata) or like Oscar, as a 10 who essentially sacrificed his more creative, flair side to chase players in a proactive, low block, counter attacking team. He wasn’t even anywhere near as good as he is now when he was here and I doubt many of us thought he’d ever be as good as he is, which I’d say he is in the top 5 attacking MF players in Europe, (some of the Belgian guys who knew him from Genk maybe expected him to be that good fair enough), the season and a half at Wolfsburg really made him grow and even the previous two years at City working with Pellegrini and Pep have really helped him. 

[ja1 1,166]

I disagree with the argument he couldn't have flourished here because he needed development, wrong. He performed on loan in Bundesliga for a shit team before he came, he came here for 6 months, left and immediately started performing again. Just 18 months later and he came to City. He was already at the level he could have started for us we just didn't give him an oppurtunity.

[DDA 9,689]

Watching that performance by KdB against Stoke yesterday hurts.... it really fucking hurts to watch a World Class player playing at that level for a City. Especially when we had him. We fucking had him. Argghh.

Yeah I mean, aside from KdB who else. Lukaku wanted to leave and if anything, we fucked up by not being able to re-sign him like we could with Matic. Dude above mentioned Salah, who wanted to leave anyway and it was only because of what he was doing at Fiorentina and Roma that Liverpool wanted him (only Liverpool wanted him btw lol) but then we probably wouldn't have bought Pedro who was key last season. Mata's shortcoming were well documented and we probably wouldn't have bought Fabregas if he stayed. We've always replaced what we've lost lol. 

Is Mourinho also at fault for selling Chalobah, loaning out RLC? selling Matic and only buying Bakayoko? Hindsight is amazing. Imagine we'd forced McEachran, Sturridge, Kakuta for the sake of "what if they become world class somewhere else" theory lmao. Which is why I have no care for Musonda right now lol, until he does something impressive on the scarce chances he gets then he's just another "on to the next one" player.

[ja1 1,166]

We should have forced Sturridge.

Im not arguing most of that, i was on board with the sale at the time and i am not afraid to say it was up there with backing AVB as my biggest error of judgement as a Chelsea fan. The bit i am contesting is Georgey/Gullit's post that he buggered up the future of the club, which simply isn't true.

In hindsight, what a stupid decision this was selling him. Stupid, stupid decision, up there with buying torres instead of aguero.

Yes don;t forget though it was Mourinho that wanted him out, because he kept banging on the managers door crying he wanted to be selected for the first team.

It was Mourinho that deprived us of him.

Fucking hell look at the front lines we could've had..... De Bruyne Costa/Morata Hazard

[!Hazard! 3,394]

This guy is magical

[Pizy 18,360]

I think in this form he's currently the best midfielder in the world. Sensational player.

Imagine him in our team. Oh, what could've been. 😔

[positivefootball 195]

Choosing Oscar over KDB???....AHAHAHAHA
