Manchester City are Centurions, Domestic Quadruple winners, Treble Winners, 4 in a row PL winner. It's all thanks to KDB who has given everything to this club! 🩵
Liverpool fan here, I see way to many people undermine him. He was scary to play against and seeing him consistently perform every season and adapt to the players around him was equally annoying whilst our midfield dropped off a cliff. In my opinion he should've wont the ballon door in that quadruple season even over haaland. For all him playmaking and attacking prowess I feel his engine and defensive duties often go under the radar.
james’s arms looking massive here

Greatest PL midfielder imo 🇧🇪💙
10:36 This one pass broke physics
What a player!!!!
Best in the world 💕🌍🤗
One thing i think KDB is still really underrated in is how he gives structure to a team. He seems to open up and find spaces for so many players. He is one of the only footballers i don't have a problem with if spoken of on a similar level to Xavi and Inesta. And my opinion, if he was british or not at city people would call him the Goat of prem midfielders.
If Liverpool is losing Trent , they should be all over KDB , and a 6 with legs , thats squad depth , quality and leadership
This game’s got me hyped!
When I heard he's leaving I was extremely sad even though I know that would have happened after his bad declining form earlier but I enjoyed watching him over those decades and is wishing he doesn't leave yet but stay to help with the young players that will be replacing him. I wish him the best though whatever his decision is at the end of the season
If he played for the Bin dippers (scousers) he would have been better than Pele. . .
As a cytizen, will always respect KDB
I wish we had 10 years of a fully fit KDB. From watching every game I feel like the Centurion season was when KDB was at his fittest and then we never saw it again after he got his first major injury the next season.
During the centurion season, he wasn’t just assisting and scoring most weeks, but he also was tracking back, putting in good tackles and great interceptions. Just for that one season he was the greatest all action midfielder of all time
Love the analysis of his technique!
THE GREATEST MID IN EPL HISTORY.
In the last assist, it's worth noting that he doesn't smash the ball across goal. Instead, he delicately lays it down in exactly the right place, with just the right amount of force behind it.
One of??
His new castle 🏰 goal is SICK 🤒⚽️🔥 You could feel the goal 🥅 keeper scare 😱 from the strike force 🔥⚽️🔥
Best to ever do it in the PL
If sterling was good finisher, KDB would have more 50+ assists on his name.
come to liverpool
Started watching football during World Cup 2022. Friend was hyping up Haaland in Man City so I started watching MC highlights for Haaland but fell in love with KDB right away
Yaya toure…one of debruyne influences
Hey miletto come on get up here I want you to ask this f*ck somethin ask him if he ever picked his feet in Poughkeepsie
KDB is among EPL legends, no doubt about it.
name of the son playing in the background?
The more you analyze his passes the more you are shocked how he actually did it😭
Surely the most brilliant and the best brains of football
The best midfielder of the world ever go argue with a wall😭😭
Thanks for this tribute to one of the most talented players to play the game
The amount of technique need to do this is remarkable
Even as a Liverpool fan, hats off to KDB, my favorite midfielder to watch in the EPL. Even with all my liverpool bias it's hard to hate him. ❤
