Hello everyone, I was wondering what views people had on selling De Bruyne? I was a big fan off his before he came to Chelsea and while he was here. I always wanted to see more time on the pitch from him, although I also trust in Jose and believe he was correct with the poor defensive effort from Kevin, as with Mata. Now the 50+ million price, which seems is being met, seems like we missed out on more profit, although he wouldn't have built that price tag at Chelsea due to no game time. I do think it's very steep, although in the inflated market, he did provide the most assists from the top 5 leagues in the world and might just go into justify it.
What do you guys think? Would love to hear yours and any ed's views!
Another 3-2 or 3-1 victory at the weekend me thinks. With another Pedro goal.
P.s sorry for the wall of text.

I have always asked myself. if Jose is as special as we are meant to believe how come he does not adopt tactics to suit some of the good player rather all player must adopt his way.the same reason I believe RLC will never develop into a player we all hope he will because Jose does not give them freedom to express themselves (young players). and you will also see a lot of failed signings as he is more interested in form than quality

I think at Wolfsburg KDB has enjoyed a "free role" very comparable to the role Mata played in under RDM and Rafa. That kind of position doesn't exist in Jose's system and it also sounds like he might need to be babied a touch by the manager which is another thing that won't happen with Jose. Overall good for him for doing well for himself but I'm intrigued how City plan to incorporate him as he and Silva play a very similar role.

I think Jose has a way of playing and because of this can make very good players seem average because of his tactics of defence first. De bruyne under any other manager at Chelsea I believe would of flourished. But from what I have read de bruyne wasn't prepared to fight for his place so this contributed to his exit. It's a shame really because we have sold players who could now play the positions we are struggling in. Ok we now have pedro but before him de bruyne can play wide right with a wicked cross and pops up with a lot of goals/assists. Mata is also doing pretty well at the moment playing a similar position. But for me I was really impressed with the performances of David Luiz when he played midfield for Chelsea. I think he would of been perfect next to matic right now. He was poor as a last man in defence but his pressing and range of passing was great, he also poped up with some goals.

sadly with Jose you either adapt to him or you find yourself another team to play for.hes always been like this and always will be

I understand your point Robben on De Bruyne but a pretty well thought of Belgian journalist said today in response to a question about city being the best place for him " Probably not. KDB needs to have responsibilty and freedom to more or less run the show, difficult where he's going" you don't get that at top teams unless you are one of two men Ronaldo or Messi, Hazard does not have that luxury at Chelsea nor Silva at City.

KDB has been the main man for Wolfsburg, the team is built around his strengths and also to cover his weakness of not tracking back (Guilavogui is especially good at this!). It will be interesting to see how City use him, he struggles in the Belgian national team when it isn't set up around him (usually is set around Hazard instead) and at City, it is set up around Yaya Toure and a lesser extent David Silva.

Always said he'll turn out to be an unreal player. Ever since his first loan. We wasted him, and bought a 30 million player when he was playing well.

You could say I'm still upset about it

KDB wasn't prepared to fight for his spot. He may have all the talent in the world, but has shown when the chips are down he will give up. Certainly not someone I'd rely on, on a cold night at the Britannia.

City will see zero resale value, and in all honesty, if he has a pants season, his value will be cut in half, as he hasn't shown consistency at the top level.
