He isn’t wrong. Although Odegaard is hot on his heels

Accordance to the caf Bruno is gobshit. This is how anyone I know who isn't an Arsenal fan will rank them.

Bruno is currently the best united player. Unlucky for him, he hasn't won much. The amount of chances he creates is excellent. If he was at city, he would be getting close to de bruyne assist level.

We are shite at finishing.

DeBruyne obviously clueless, doesn't he know we will never have any success with Bruno.

Congratulations to us on winning the "top midfielder in KDB's list" trophy. Meanwhile they keep on winning Premier and Champions Leagues.

Shouldn't rattle anyone. Bruno as an individual player, is top class. Only a fool would question his output. Whether he's the player we can build the kind of team around that will consistently win titles, that is debatable.

Bruno being the most creative midfielder in the league apart from KDB is the most obvious observation ever. They're in a completely different class to anyone else.

To be fair he knows full well the reason he's being asked is because if it was a race he'd finish while the other three were still working out where the start line is, and tbf it's not like any of the three are bad players, except when compared with KDB

Weird list. Since there is no other Man City player there, I assume he was only give the choice between them three?
Maddison is not even in top 10.

Nonchalantly scoring the winner...
De Bruyne does this weird thing where he blinks and keeps his eyes shut for ages, kind of like a pretentious artist when talking about art concepts.

I like it, it suits him.

I wonder if he’ll ever leave City, and if so, where would he go?

Stat of the day: Mason Mount has missed more games through injuries for Man Utd than Bruno Fernandes.

No doubt, Bruno can string a few wonder passes and hollywood balls which result in a goal.

But for large part of his in-game, his passes are erratic to the point of frustration. Add on to his petulant behavior when things go south, nothing suggests he should be right up there with the top EPL midfielders.

KDB and Odegaard pass completion is top notch and recycles the ball damn well. The state of their game is always in free flow state (with minimal turnovers).

Good player but nothing more (and definitely not captain material).

At his best like his last match, Bruno is right up there. Unfortunately, we do not see his best often enough. I think everyone would agree Maddison totally outclassed Bruno a little over a week ago.

I agree. If all of these players that the fans think are so good, were actually as good as they claim, then surely the club would have something Man Utd-like to show for it.

De Bruyne's pass completion just cannot be top notch. He is just like Fernandes - rarely content to recycle the ball, overly fond of wonder passes and hollywood balls - and how successful his passes are is therefore similarly erratic.

It should come as no surprise that De Bruyne rates Fernandes, really. You'd imagine Bruno is exactly his kind of player.

Some people have the following logic “he plays for United, then he must be shit”, and will claim to know more about football than KDB. I still don’t get why they support United.

On topic, class recognizes class, Bruno is our best player, and isone of the bests at his position in the world. Those who can’t see that, are either blind or delusional by negativity.
