Popular Post BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 28, 2015 Popular Post Share Posted August 28, 2015 when I first saw him It was his Beckham standard crossing I first noticed. Over the last few years his development has been exceptional ..one of the very best nonstrikers in footballYeah I noticed that when he played for Genk against us, but it was clearly evident when he played for werder. Out of the world vision, the weight he puts on the ball and the curve. Just amazing.I think he will do brilliantly for City once he settles in, and it wont take long. Even in NT, he is the one that realy pulls the strings or better say, has that mentality to drag team forward, not Hazard.Im not even dissapointed he isnt here, sadly we dont have manager that suits him, but of all teams, City got him You know, one of few amazing players we discover and get for peanuts, we cant keep. Thats stupid enough, but then they end up at our biggest rival. And he will most probably tear us apart. 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
termninja 5,290 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 I don't think he will do well in PL. I think he will ROCK the PL and we will suffer quite a bit for it... Fucking Bayern should've signed him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Oscar 441 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 What I love about him, is his passing range. He has that Gerrard ability when comes to passing.KDb's longball passing ability really is world class... One thing I love watching in terms of KDB's game is his longball passing/crossing.. Not beckham esque, but Gerrardish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Stingray 9,436 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Wow!Today's lesson learned, never say De Bruyne is a good player but not world class or a Belgian will insult you without reasons.Hey macho man, I'm Italian and as you can see from the four stars on our badge apparently we play and understand football quite well.When I'll need a help with mussels and fries I'll look for your advice, but not with football. I had huge expectation when De Bruyne joined Chelsea based on his youtube videos (i know, big mistake) but then I can remember only few games where he was anonymous, and on top of that his well known lack of spirit to fight for a place.You might say he was better than Hazard at World Cup, yes it's true, I followed the Belgium national team because i like it a lot (on the paper) and De Bruyne was decent in a mediocre team in which Hazard looked completely drained of his strength after a long and exhausting season in one hell of a championship, not a mickey mouse league (you're right again mate) like the one De Bruyne has been playing in.When we'll meet City again this season I'll shit in my pants only thinking about Silva and Aguero, and not for the ginger pork who at that time will probably be sitting on a bench.Enjoy Hazard, your NT have a gem in that guy.My two years old nephew has a better first touch than Lukaku.Your beers are amazing. Best regards.Lol, nice try pizza man. You said Oscar would have outperformed KDB in stats easily. i took you up on that. All the rest are things you want to put into my mouth. once again! Its about your statement Oscar would certainly do better. Again? Do I think is world class: no. Do I say this because I am belgian: no - I say it because I have seen him play a LOT, even live. So before you go all "macho man" on me - your post and the certainty with which you made that bold claim about Oscar was my focus. But I get it that your ego got a bit bruised. Why else all the reference to nationality, the NT, beers and what not. Grow up. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fernando 6,137 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 and that will be no use to him at Man CityReading your post on this thread I'll say your just bitter men. He's a top player that will be good for city. Nothing more to say. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blue Colored Sky 1,799 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 He is one of my favourite players. I joined here with KevinDB as my username almost 3 years ago.But hopefully he will struggle there. Not looking forward to see him play. I would like if he goes completely missing in City's games then got revitalised for NT. But sadly can't see it. When I look at him I see top player and he is top player. Will get double digits in goals and assists. Only can hope that they struggle to accommodate both Silva and KDB in the same team. KDB has to play centrally, where's Silva ? On the left but do they want to break great partnership between Sterling and Kolarov ?There will be games when City with Aguero, Silva, KDB, Sterling, Toure will tear opponents to shreds. Can see them score 6 or 7 goals in games. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Mikel OBE 4,527 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Looks like he brought his girlfriend with him on his private flight to Manchester. We know where Courtois will be going after the match today... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Viper22 2,418 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Good player at Wolfsburg but I don't think he'll be anywhere near as good in England as some are suggesting.Of course he's young and can develop but I just don't think he's strong enough both on and off the ball and I don't think he performs well enough when put under the pressure of teams that press you constantly high up the pitch.IMO he'll struggle from the hard working mid/high table EPL teams the same way Fabregas does with the much reduced time he'll have on the ball.We'll have to wait and see, but i've got a funny feeling he might well be a bit of a flop at City that we'll all be looking at retrospectively saying "he's just not a PL player" come the end of the season. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

All the while we picking up form October till the end. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tomo 20,982 Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Looking forward to the increased activity on this thread every time he assist or scores. Costas early form last season spared us the Lukaku meltdown, let's hope Pedro can have a similar affect here, a goal and two assists in two games, so far so good. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have backed up my opinions as to why, whereas others havent, so i dont know how you can say i am bitter Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Best regards.Ah, are you guys still calling the Bundesliga a Mickey Mouse league? You do realize England was the only one of the top 8 leagues that didn't have a team in any European Quarter finals last year right? Even Belgium had one, and we pay our players in peanuts. I said it before. Your league is overrated. You have the broadest base in world football, which is great, but you haven't had a world beater team for years. When has an English team won a CL final without being the underdog? I guess the last time was Man Utd in 99 because their wonder generation was at the top of their game at the time (sorry guys, but you kinda were underdogs in 2012). How many true world class players moved to an English team in the past four or so years? Hazard maybe, Aguero maybe. All of the other ones are players that Barca, Real or Bayern didn't want. Ronaldo moved away, Suarez moved away, Bale didn't go to a Premier League team, Neymar moved straight to Barca. Fabregas moved away when he was considered world class. Neither him nor Pedro would be anywhere near Chelsea if they managed to keep a starting spot at Barca. It's harsh but true.The Premier League has all the money in the world but none of the vision. I hope Kevin will not become a victim of that mentality. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
