Then add in the fact that Haaland was only 50m. People whinge about City spending money, but we spend LESS than MOST teams nowadays... we just spend very, very well!
I measure a player by effectiveness NOT by beauty on the eye. When I've put KDB on the effectiveness category (or what I like to call "winningness"- i.e. the effect the player has on actually winning games disregarding everything else) there was a period when Messi/Ronaldo was waning a few years ago when I put KDB no.1. That's not even to say KDB doesn't play the game in a sexy way, just that you measure his influence and Man City finishing with record breaking points totals to beat Liverpool is BECAUSE of him. Xavi is another player I put in this category and for my money Xavi rivals Messi, and beats Zidane who was far more "beautiful".
I think his first season with city was so underrated. He was so pacey and skillful back then but unfortunately he got a big injury in 2019 and also pep's tactics forced him to become more efficient. I like the more mature kdb we have now because he is simply better but the old kdb played with hunger and passion. He was more aesthetically pleasing to watch.
This is why he’s clear of players like Ozil and James Rodriguez, they didn’t adapt and got left behind instead of seeing the tactical shift and moving with it
@@echo5935 do you watch KDB ?....watch his games against wolves or Liverpool last season where he put on crazy defensive work ,and then come back here ,there's others but those are the ones I remeber most

He has been the best midfielder in the world since 2017. Shooting, play making, crossing, passing, he has it all. But the reason I like him is his elite mentality. Most young players would have fallen by the wayside if they were kicked out of Chelsea in similar fashion. But KDB instead went on to prove himself at a lesser club and work his way up.
19/20 definitely his peak, followed by 14/15 as individual. but as team it would be last season, he won treble and he is top assist in 3 different competition (epl, ucl, fa).
19-20 was his equal best and simultaneously worst season. Best indvidually in the pl at least, 33g/a in 35 games. Highest non pen g/a for a mid in pl history i think. Equaled the assist record with sterling and jesus up front(jesus missed 24 big chances that season). Also was clutch in both ro16 and qf of the CL but sterling did sterling things and fucked city. But yea last season overall was ridiculous
Even as a Man United fan i have to begrudgingly admit that my last 2 fav midfielders in the Prem have both been from Man City(David Silva and KDB). Especially KDB as he is such a complete midfielder. Not just the fact that he adapated to various types of midfield roles but also the fact that he was actually dangerous in all those roles(and not just a versatile workhorse with limited skills). His through balls and his first time whipped crosses into the box literally gives me eyegasms. Hate Man City but love KDB. Man City better make a statue of him once he leaves.
I can't think of any other premier league player who can give accurate, defense splitting passes while running at full speed. Haaland gets all the plaudits for his goals and may even win the Ballon d'Or this year. But De Bruyne is the beating heart of the team. Without him, Man City aren't the same.
@@Nahanoo they lost one of the ucl finals where he wasn't present. If it wasn't for him they would've never made to the ucl finals for a second time. He was the reason they won city won 5 league titles in 6 years.
@@Nahanoo Man City won the 2018/19 league while KDB was injured for a prolonged period. So, that is the only season in which KDB wasn't crucial to their success. Otherwise, he's been their most important player in every successful league season. KDB played only a few minutes in both the Champions league finals. But that is precisely why they struggled in both of them. After KDB went off against Chelsea, Man City didn't manage a single threatening attack and ultimately, they lost. Though they showed great grit and resilience against Inter, Man City were incredibly lucky to win the final. Inter players missed great chances. Man City looked really nervous after KDB was substituted. It wasn't their best game.
KDB is one of finest brains in Football history and so complete he got everything shooting, playmaking, passing range that is just unbelievable some times, big game player, technical, physical and tactical awareness.. He's one of the greatest midfielder not just of this generation but all time⚽
KDB has taught us that when asked to play in a role so unfamiliar, players should accept that and try to make the best out of it. For young players especially. Who knows what that might end up making them to be.
Yup. many do not know that david silva actually played on the wing for a long time despite being a number 10 like foden. It's pep who made him permently play in the middle
KDB is one of the greatest midfielders ever if he didn't play for City and played for a team like Barca or Real people will consider him on the level of Modric, Xavi, Iniesta etc
Nah it's nothing to do without city, if he had like 3 or 4 ucl he would have been seen already up there and maybe better. And city should have won a lot more ucl considering their squad and manager
£55 million well spent. Unlike Mata, Özil and James. De Bruyne adapted and evolve his game cementing him as one of the greatest midfielders in his generation. He won everything at Manchester City and won multiple player of the season awards in England and Germany. As a Manchester United fan, I acknowledge Kevin De Bruyne. Bruno Fernandes ain't half the player De Bruyne is, so comparing him to De Bruyne is a joke. From a Chelsea flop to Manchester City great. Kevin De Bruyne is the midfield general in the Premier League.
All the old time merchants saying KDB is not on goat status. KDB have almost the same amount of assists Modric + Zidane whole career combined when he is still only at 31. And when they say “Stat does not matter” KDB be scoring worldie or doing magic on your face. Won a Quadruple and 5 premier league titles. KDB showed time to time how fucking clutch he is, just look at that solo goal against Arsenal during title race. Kdb game is not only about his touches and passes, his killer instinct along with his ridiculous assisting and finishing (with left and right foot, anywhere up to 40yards) truly devastating for his opponents.
Earlier they had the UCL argument. Now it's been snatched from the haters. They come up with, not good in the finals. He was intentionally injured in 21, and played through injury in 23. Had it not been for him, city won't even be in the final.
As a Belgian, I'm so proud to know he's the goat, just behind Messi 😊, in all positions he's played, whenever, wherever, assisting, scoring, conducting play, setting the pace, etc. He combines natural ability and talent with a unbelievable mindset and determination. Thats whats makes him so fantastic! He's a winner at heart and proves it over and over and over again ❤
Make one for Gundogan too please, he is maybe not better than De Bruyne in term of versatility. However he is better in term on clutch, i would love to see how he become like that. Love this analysis of De Bruyne, keep it up while we don’t have any match to cover.
The flip switched forever when KdB played alongside Nicklas Bendtner at Wolfsburg. Playing WITH and FOR The Lord will work wonders for any aspiring footballer.
I used to follow Bundesliga when KDB was playing there .when he signed for manchester city and all the pundits were criticising this signing i was like do they actually watched him play or they just saying things because he was signed from Bundesliga/wolfsburg.
As an attacking midfielder, your job is to carry your team, often technically. KDB makes up for his lack of flashy abilities and agility with incredible sheer desire to create goals. He never stops attacking. While most players switch off and on throughout the game, he’s always adamant on assisting or crossing. Which is probably why he is so precise with his foot. One of a kind, a legend. Kevin De Bruyne!
Exactly why one shouldn't believe pundits. When he started shining they started saying something different. They aren't good at identifying future talent
He s by far the most complete midfielder of all time Absolutely dominate all the aspects of the greatest midfielders, clutch as any other in the biggest games Unreal player since 2017 certainly the best midfielder in the world
idc about others, kdb definitely in same tier with xavi, iniesta, zidane n etc even if he is not better.. But he definitely is better at some aspect than others, his number back him up, he play effectively, if he play for barca or madrid, ppl would hype him so much

@@urukira-shinar KDB hasn't played with anyone that goes in top 3 for Ballon Dor?then what is Halaand?,and he played with great players all of them did,stop acting has if KDB play with small players
I feel strongly about the way he controls and builds the pace of City's every attack when he is on the pitch. Having the passing prowess is one thing but KDB, I feel, knows exactly when to use it. Its how he is efficiently able to pierce through defensive lines with ease. (New to following the game. So go easy on me if you disagree).
Can we have a video on similarities and differences between Busquests and Pep pls . Pep was idol of him who is only player except Rodri who has very similar to him not just position but as playstyle too
We must appreciate every time we get to see KDB play from here on out. He is a 1 of kind talent. Who is an artist on the football pitch. I don't think we'll ever see a player quite like Kevin De Bruyne again!💯
Wow! I loved this so much. Since I began watching your content it has increased my understanding for the game and to truly appreciate it more. Keep up the awesome content! KDB deserves at least one ballon dor before he retires!
In 2012 I bet $100 on Belgium to win WC 14 at 500/1, so I watched every Belgium qualifier. I told everyone I know that DeBruyne would be the best MF in the world. I got endless grief the next year when Chelsea sold him to Wolfsburg...
Great breakdown. One of my favourite players over the last decade. Its a shame we're seeing the tail end of his prime now. Hopefully he has a crazy year in the next two or so and gets the ballon d'or.
KDB is a great inspiration. This shows that when everyone casts u out and think you're not worth it or good enough, don't back down! KDB came back stronger
@seetsamolapo5600 he does not because. He said they can not be compared because they are different players. But if they were,he is so humble and would not pick himself above Messi.
Let me tell you who say modric is better than KDB. If you take whole career of highlights of Modric of his through ball or ley passes it will be shorter than those of KDB's two seasons. There is nothing.. i mean nothing modric does that kdb cant and kdb's passing is of elite level. Shooting.. KDb with both feet Passing... Kdb Freekicks... Kdb Assists ... Kdb Pin point crossing.. kdb. Seriously he is a midfielder to be mentioned alongside xavi iniesta and zidane when he finishes his career. His NT is not that good as acompared to france and spain and still his stats are insane for NT. Lukaku f**d it up at WC and this guy delivers on big occasions and rarely gets taken out of the game and that is due to the brilliance of defensive work of opposition. Whereas modric? Got humiliated in multiple classicos and against man city in 6 fixtures he never showed. My point is not that modric is bad. But in comparison to KDB.. kdb is clear
If KDB played for RM, they would have put him up as the GOAT midfielder. Just because he plays for city he doesn't get his flowers. Since they can't put up stats(bcoz kdb is clear of everyone) they bring up NT. Until Messi didn't win the WC, it was bcoz of his teammates. But if KDB doesn't, it bcoz of him, hypocrites.
When game demanded something from player, KDB answered. The game then hung up without hearing Kevin. They say the echo of "Let me talk" can still be heard outside the door of his bedroom
I am putting my hopes into it. In a few years he is going to be retired, and i am not ready. Want to see more of him, even as a Manager. If he returns to city, that would be a sight to behold
Great Video. Id love to see the other side of the coin of players that were prob as gifted but failed to adapt. Özil comes to mind maybe contrasted with Toni Kroos
I like how he plays and his vision on the pitch. You can use him like a 6, 8 or 10. I enjoy watching him like number 10. Find a midfielder who can play differently positions like him.
that newspaper article literally labeled him as the “Chelsea flop” 😂, damn… only for him to have the longest run as the best player in the premier league and become one of the greatest ever 🥶.
Can shoot pass defend vison captain stalina pressure long shots cross short pass long pass all types of passe too. Good pace on Him and weak foot tje best of them all

Love how Kevin shut up those pundits crying about his transfer fee. 60 million was a steal for this dude.
True if he wasn't 32 I'd pay 150m for him. Unreal player
Then add in the fact that Haaland was only 50m. People whinge about City spending money, but we spend LESS than MOST teams nowadays... we just spend very, very well!
I would even consider 150M a steal, KDB is one of the best midfielders ever to grace the sport.
It's so difficult to understand how Kevin De bruyne uses his eyes to find passes that you don't even know exist..
He is among the GOAT midfielders
It's medium hard in FIFA and pes to see those passes but I agree, in real life, he is exceptional, the very best.
I measure a player by effectiveness NOT by beauty on the eye.

Even more difficult to understand how his weight of pass is so perfect. Best midfielder to ever grace the game.
KDB has been the best player in the premier league since the 2017 season🙌🏽
Crazy thing about KDB is that his left foot is even stronger than his right foot which is crazy when you see him hit those long shots

I like the more mature kdb we have now because he is simply better but the old kdb played with hunger and passion. He was more aesthetically pleasing to watch.
Some set of supporters claim it's Salah, kdb by a light year

I have thought since the World Cup 2014
This is why he’s clear of players like Ozil and James Rodriguez, they didn’t adapt and got left behind instead of seeing the tactical shift and moving with it

In 2012 I bet $100 on Belgium to win WC 14 at 500/1, so I watched every Belgium qualifier. I told everyone I know that DeBruyne would be the best MF in the world. I got endless grief the next year when Chelsea sold him to Wolfsburg...
Great breakdown. One of my favourite players over the last decade. Its a shame we're seeing the tail end of his prime now. Hopefully he has a crazy year in the next two or so and gets the ballon d'or.
Best midfielder in the epl history
KDB is a great inspiration.
This shows that when everyone casts u out and think you're not worth it or good enough, don't back down! KDB came back stronger
His vision can only be compared to Messi's. That's how good he is above the others.
Lol 😂
Bro trying to sneak Messi in, Messi isn’t in the first 5 vision players.
@@Ems_amah don't need to sneak him in. Those who know ball know what's up.
@@ndesylvarius3669Facts
@@Ems_amahyou're playing. Even KDB would put Messi above himself
@seetsamolapo5600 he does not because. He said they can not be compared because they are different players. But if they were,he is so humble and would not pick himself above Messi.
Treble winner KDB the best midfielder in PL history
There is no player like him! Truly a special talent.
I love this type of video, excellent stuff 👏
Let me tell you who say modric is better than KDB.
If you take whole career of highlights of Modric of his through ball or ley passes it will be shorter than those of KDB's two seasons.
There is nothing.. i mean nothing modric does that kdb cant and kdb's passing is of elite level.
Shooting.. KDb with both feet
Passing... Kdb
Freekicks... Kdb
Assists ... Kdb
Pin point crossing.. kdb.
Seriously he is a midfielder to be mentioned alongside xavi iniesta and zidane when he finishes his career.
His NT is not that good as acompared to france and spain and still his stats are insane for NT. Lukaku f**d it up at WC and this guy delivers on big occasions and rarely gets taken out of the game and that is due to the brilliance of defensive work of opposition.
Whereas modric? Got humiliated in multiple classicos and against man city in 6 fixtures he never showed.
My point is not that modric is bad. But in comparison to KDB.. kdb is clear
If KDB played for RM, they would have put him up as the GOAT midfielder. Just because he plays for city he doesn't get his flowers.
Since they can't put up stats(bcoz kdb is clear of everyone) they bring up NT.
Until Messi didn't win the WC, it was bcoz of his teammates. But if KDB doesn't, it bcoz of him, hypocrites.
Amazing Analysis
When game demanded something from player, KDB answered.
The game then hung up without hearing Kevin.
They say the echo of "Let me talk" can still be heard outside the door of his bedroom
One of the best player that graze the pitche
that mirror sport project front page should be printed and hanging at De Bruyne work room
My favourite player. I wished that he could win the world cup in 2018. Golden generation of belgium.
Kevin De Bruyne The flagship of Modern football
KDB.. The Lord KDB..
The Phoenix KDB…
The King KDB. 😍
My favorite player all time, and the midfield goat
For me he is number one midfielder
Kdb17 remember him
My home team’s former coach and club legend, Elyaniv Barda had won the league with Genk alongside De Bruyne and Courtois
17 min video how fitting 😅
I have studied him aaaahhh but still i don't understand how he does the passes 13:05 13:08 13:09 😮so simple for him kaiii he's just the best
Bro is a utopian baller 🔥🔥🔥
This man is a hustler
I'm glad that you returned to your old diagram.
Iconic player 🩵👑
Orb is truly an underrated player and his evolution truly is one to behold
You gotta do another on rodri
Just give him at the least the Best award already
The best!
I’d barely describe him as a midfielder, he has no second phase presence.
KDB is my favorite player.
KDB will change the game as a manager like pep has mark my words
I am putting my hopes into it. In a few years he is going to be retired, and i am not ready. Want to see more of him, even as a Manager.
If he returns to city, that would be a sight to behold
Great Video. Id love to see the other side of the coin of players that were prob as gifted but failed to adapt. Özil comes to mind maybe contrasted with Toni Kroos
BROOOO YOU MIGHT NOT SEE THIS BUT THIS NEW MIC IS HITTING DIFFERENT ❤
Thanks so much man!!
THE GREATEST MIDFIELDER IN THE LAST 10 YEARS. ARGUE WITH THE WALL
KDB is a 🐐 midfielder
I like how he plays and his vision on the pitch. You can use him like a 6, 8 or 10. I enjoy watching him like number 10. Find a midfielder who can play differently positions like him.
that newspaper article literally labeled him as the “Chelsea flop” 😂, damn… only for him to have the longest run as the best player in the premier league and become one of the greatest ever 🥶.
My 🐐👑
Florian Wirtz is like a much younger copy of him, with a better dribbling
One the best midfielders of this generation
What do you make the tactical graphics with? Not the illustrations on the videos which is play metrica right?
KDB is a genius!!!
I will never doubt the greatness of de Bruyne but we also have to acknowledge that under Pep he became a true monster.
KDB deserves all the flowers in the world one of the greatest mid fielders of all time
Can shoot pass defend vison captain stalina pressure long shots cross short pass long pass all types of passe too. Good pace on
Him and weak foot tje best of them all
I'm learning
legend
For me he cuts right into my goat squad with messi kante coutoris and thiago silva
Please do one for modric.
Best in the wooold
Do one about kroos please. I think people dont understand his genius and consistency
The best player in my club
