Just how good is this guy? A lot of City writers and pundits have compared him to the great Colin Bell. Certainly Michael Johnson was given that label under Sven. Alongside Elano he looked a good shout but stepped away due to various issues.

Kevin is certainly from the same mould but a Colin DeBruyne? Kevin DeBell? Time will tell, but I think he will be central to all the success City will have in the near future. He is part of a free-flowing attack, scary in its ease sometimes.
