Kevin De Bruyne was astonishingly good in the BuLi, as in historically good, which is what earned him the City transfer. And of course he's been one of the best players in the Premiership since he got there. It's pretty obvious that the man has had a great career and some lackluster performances for Belgium (a team overall clearly past its zenith) don't change that.
Weren't you one who defended Messi as not GOAT because of Argentina not winning the WC?
why you think that? i think the opposite, as if belguim clinch then their match vs croatia is not important
Meh, of course Canada's chances basically hinge on having Croatia and Belgium needing to play for something, and preferably a scenario where a draw doesn't advance both of them. That being said, if Morroco wins they can park the bus against us and play for a draw which isn't good at all.
And nowhere would I say KdB is anywhere near the GOAT debate. It's just disingenuous to imply he's only made to look good by City when those who've actually watched his entire career know he was world class well before he got to City. Sometimes, star players fit into national teams, sometimes they don't.
Of course, but a Morroco win basically means neither Croatia or Canada can play for a draw, I don't like our chances in that scenario.
He scored 15 goals last season. I think you let personal bias influence your views. I don't even like him (I thought he was whiny and selfish when in Germany), but I don't think Pep Guardiola keeps playing a guy in a key position on a team with ridiculous depth which could purchase a replacement in any given window unless that guy has something of high quality to offer.
