Kevin injured?

"De Bruyne has not started, or played no part in, eight Premier League games since Guardiola took charge, with City winning six and losing two of those matches."

I have a feeling we'll turn over the dippers, they will be the favourites to beat us and the pressure is on them. Last season we didnt play our normal game due to being the 'favourites'. Knowing them, I can see them bottling it. As for rags, not too concerned about those mugs

Not counting the chickens for the next 6 games, but already thoughts are on what happens in the liverpool game. Pep learnt a lot in his first season and that showed for the majority of last season. Aside from coping with the loss of KDB for that game I am hoping that he has learnt a lot from the games at anfield last season and he adopt the correct tactics accordingly.

aside from those 3 matches id like to think we can cope with out him in the league & the entire CL group stage.

I like to think that we can cope without any one particular squad member no matter who.(Possibly not Eddie).
The problem with long term injuries like this, to key players is, it will be interesting to see who else we will be missing
for the key games you mention, due to suspensions or God forbid further injuries due to being kicked off the park.

My real worry is having people sent of in the weeks leading up to the likes of the Liverpool game, to add insult to injury.

The last time KDB had this injury he missed 9 league games and we won just 4 of them. I'm not sure we are in a better place now to cope. Bernard and Foden are here now but they are not Kev. Fern is 33 now and Merlin 32. Let's see what His Pepness has up his sleeve.

7 league games, 3 cup games. 3 wins 2 draws 5 defeats. 1 of them draws was the LC final that we won on pens.


Bit of context though, it was Pellegrini's last season in which the performamces in general were relatively apathetic.

We lost to Spurs, Leicester, Liverpool and Utd in the league. The reverse fixtures of them games in which DeBruyne played we lost 2 drew 2.

In the cup we lost to Chelsea when we played a team full of kids.

The scenario now is somewhat different than it was then.

He's not our best player. We coped without our best player, just about, last season when his baby was born prematurely. I'm sure we'll be just fine. But hey, I've only been watching City for 25 years so what the fuck do I know.

I think this is Bernado's year, the signs are there, its upto him to step it up. Silva is mr consistant, always delivers and maybe thats why it goes unnoticed, suppose we take it for granted. As for Foden, I think Pep is taking his time intergrating him into the first team rather than throwing him at the deep end.

I think it'll be Sterling's year (again!).

As good as kdb is it would have been a bigger problem for city if it were fernandinho who was injured.
