‘He’s absolutely ridiculous’… Pundit says Man City have a player who can do things no one can in the world

After Manchester City defeated Newcastle United 3-2 at St. James’ Park, Paul Dickov reserved special praise for Kevin De Bruyne.

 

The pundit emphasised that De Bruyne can produce a level of mastery that no other player can in world football on City’s full-show time (via YouTube).

 

Pep Guardiola also emphasised that much like Erling Haaland, the 32-year-old is also a true match-winner.

“You know when you need a little bit of gold dust to make the difference, King Kev [Kevin De Bruyne] comes on and I don’t know what to say. He’s just absolutely ridiculous, Dunney [Richard Dunne], wasn’t it”, Dickov said on City’s full-time show.

 

“Just the difference he makes to the players on the pitch as well, we all know how good he is. We [Paul Dickov and Richard Dunne] were talking before even before [Manchester City’s 5-0 win against] Huddersfield game before we started the show. Everybody lifts their game when Kev comes to the pitch. They realise how good he is.”

 

Paul Dickov noted how Kevin De Bruyne instils belief in his Manchester City teammates as he broke down his display against Newcastle.

 

 

“There’s many times when the ball was wide today and players, I’m not saying didn’t want to get in the box. But as soon as Kev got in the wide areas, it was three, four, five players getting in the box because he knows the quality he’s got. He can do things that no other player in the world can do, we’ve seen that with the goal and we’ve seen that with the assist today”, he concluded.

 

Kevin De Bruyne is the dream midfielder

In our view, Paul Dickov was bang on the money about Kevin De Bruyne, who exhibited his unrivalled excellence from the middle of the park against Newcastle.

 

Assessing his profile, De Bruyne is the closest thing to perfection as far as midfielders go.

 

 

Technically, the former Chelsea attacker is simply impeccable in every possible aspect.

 

Physically as well, Kevin De Bruyne is deceptively quick, especially with the ball at his feet and off-the-ball, this trait allows him to recover possession for City effectively.

 

While De Bruyne’s broad frame allows him to win duels as well.

 

Capable of offering a helping hand in every facet of the game, Kevin De Bruyne has the dream profile for a midfielder.

 

As a result, it comes as no surprise why he is in a league of his own compared to other players in his position.
