With Fulham boss Marco Silva gearing his side up to lock horns against Manchester City, he lauded Kevin De Bruyne ahead of the clash.
Fulham vs Manchester City: Marco Silva raves about Kevin De Bruyne
The Belgian captain has been a class apart for the Sky Blues once again this season.
While De Bruyne’s form had undergone a steep decline after the World Cup, it is a sign of an elite player that as soon as the title run-in kicked in, he became typically unstoppable again.
In his latest press conference ahead of his side’s upcoming contest against Manchester City, Fulham manager Marco Silva was all praises for Kevin De Bruyne.
“You mention a player who in this position is one of the best, if not the best, in this country, that is De Bruyne. He is one of the most important players for them, but you cannot put your focus on just one player”, he said, as quoted by Keepup.
“We prefer to look in a different way, to look in a collective way. They are strong, one of the best teams in the world, if not the best and clearly the best team in this competition.”
What more can one say about Kevin De Bruyne?
Eight years of uninterrupted dominance since his move to City; the maestro is simply an all-time great and one of the greatest midfielders the game has ever seen.
Much like Marco Silva, all one can really do is be in awe of Kevin De Bruyne, who continues to add to his legacy as a certified legend.
As De Bruyne turns 32 this year, all one must do is sit back and enjoy his time at the top, as he continues to raise the bar for the rest.
