Second Attacking Midfielder: Kevin De Bruyne

The Belgian international has been a pleasure to watch since joining from Wolfsburg last season. De Bruyne finished with 16 goals and 12 assists in all competitions last season and is one of City’s best players all around. He works hard for the team and provides some great assists and some even better finishes. Earlier this season, KDB was on fine form setting up numerous City goals and becoming a better talent.

Linking him up with Dusan Tadic would be pretty deadly and the two players have a lot of similarities that would help an offense.
