You are an i.diot, 2014 world cup, they crashed out in quarter finals, Has he won anything of note for Belgium? The answer is no

Kdb was Belgium best player during the 2014 World cup. He was unplayable. . KDB was killing it with Bremen and Wolsburg single handedly.

This debate will never be solved. In my opinion it is Pele. Messi's failures with the national team not just in terms of trophies but game play means he can't be top dog for me. There was a noticeable drop off between Messi's individual performances for club and country even at his peak. It is sad but true.

P.S I noticed you listed Iniesta but didn't mention CR7. Wattagwan?
I have not forgiven Ronaldo for leaving us for Madrid...At that time, we were doing better than Madrid so I was painful to see him leave...

Also, I have a thing for players who are good in tight spaces...Ronaldo sacrificed his footballing skills for goals...Ronaldo at Sporting and Man Utd was awesome for me...It's the reason I love Messi and Lima Ronaldo, goals plus beautiful football...

But without been sentimental, kdb is better than Bruno, but seeing some people for here who ready to bring out talks to prove otherwise, and I never get time for back and forth, na why I let am slide

I am not just basing it on stats. Tell me any season where KDB pulled up a majestic performance in the UCL to at least lead City to final or win it. Even in the EPL he has not been the best player in any title winning team. In the national team, apart from in 2014 WC where they where knocked out in the quarters he has consistently gone missing every other tournament with WALEs knocking them out in 2016. This is despite playing in the best teams both at club and NT for tge best part of his career. Nobody is able to dispute these important facts and evidences, but you want to elevate him to a statue he is not up to

On what evidence nwanne. Bruno has been dropping these numbers right from his Sporting days. If Gundogan and Sterling can score why won't Bruno? Somebody that was garnering G/As in droves pkaying with Rashford, Martial , Mctominay and Fred and James will suddenly stop scoring when he plays with Mahrez, Aguero, Sterling, Silva, Gundogan and Foden? Lol. Bruno is not the person that asked KDB to register just 1 open play goal all season

By scoring important goals ans assists and causing more troubles for low block oppositions, Unlike Sanchovwho needs acres of soace to operate., same with Werner at Leipzig. Moreover Reyna is just 18 you don't expect him to carry Dortmund.

We have scored more than City because we have the best creator-in-chief in the league, who has scored 22 goals and 13 assists in all competitions, he is overall clearly the best midfielder in league but you guys are doing everything in your power to denigrate him.

The simple reason City are above United is.

City= Pep, Stones, Dias.
United = Ole, Magwaya, Lindelof.

For Bruno to lead this team to score more goals despite deficiencies in his ream is testament of who is better

How do we quantify "trouble causing for low blocks"? Is it from his 3 goals and 4 assists in the league all season that you concluded he is better?

Mata does not need space to operate, Rashford and Mbappe prefer to have space. Does not mean Mata is better than them. What you just described is a difference in styles not a difference in quality.
I have seen enough goals and assists from Sancho to know that he is not the Dan James you are making him out to be.

It is one thing to say he is not worth 120m (which i agree with by the way). It is another thing to try to buttress your argument by mentioning an untested teenager like Reyna who has been decent but not exactly set the world alight.

What higher standard? I though KDB is the Messi of Midfields and he is the best thing in midfield after sliced bread. If Bruno plays for city, he would win those EPL titles KDB won, Bruno has Won an international trophy with Portugal playing key roles, abd since he joined united he has produced better performances overall than anybody anywhere in the EPL. Bruno is 25, KDB is 29.

Now swap him with midfielders of his age. Kroos, Modric, Muller, even Pogba,.

Kroos has shown his quality on numerous occasions getting involved in key games eg vs Brazil in 2014 WC, winning league titles and UCL with crisp performances. I watched Madrid last league match and Kroos was running the show with Modric, Modric lead an unfancied Croatia to WC final, wining key huge games on his own. These are Midfielders who has time and time again has shown themselves to be dependable on numerous key occasions. Just mention 1 moment KDB has led his team deep into any competition of note. He has never been the best player in the league any title winning team, so why are you hyping him to high heavens?

I dont want to talk of Muller, or older heads like iniesta, Schweisteiger etc. If you want to hype KDB give me his credentials, he is 29 for Gods sake

Some people just love Messi too much.

The Argentines don't consider him their legend.


Time and time again, he has broken their heart when it matters most.

James is no where near the quality of Sancho, they are class apart, despite their game looking similar. However, i was looking at ut from the angle of a player that will benefit us.
In another note, Mbappe and Rashford likes space, but they can destroy low block teams in the tightest of spaces. The last goal Rashford scored is a typical example, Mbappe's first goal versus Barca and his goal versus Argentina were few goals i can remember from the top of my head where he utilised tight low block spaces to break teams. Sancho doesn't score those to be frank.

Kroos is a player I like very well, I followed him right from when he represented Germany in U 17 World Cup, but yes he was lucky to be among that all conquering team. I have not seen, may be their might be, I don't know, a match which Kroos dictated generally on his own and won it single handedly like the Zidanes, Roy Keanes, Xavis, Nedveds, Pirlos, Vieras and some others I may not remember. I am not downplaying his abilities mind you, but he can't measure up to the above mentioned midfielders in their prime. At least I have instances where they have on their own dragged their teams over the line at top level, but can't remember any for Kroos(although he might have, but I have not seen or remembered)
