De Bruyne warns: I don't care about the record at Anfield, we will beat Liverpool

Image
Kevin De Bruyne has bruised aside the popular notion that Manchester City will always lose at Anfield when they face Liverpool. 

 City are yet to win at Anfield since 2003 but De Bruyne thinks its all meaningless statistics that will be ended on Sunday. 

 A draw at Anfield will be ok but a win will be fantastic for Pep Guardiola and City who will close the gap to 3 points and pile pressure on Liverpool. But a defeat will hand the initiative to Liverpool who will move 9 points clear of the reigning champions.

 Asked about the record, De Bruyne said: "What can a player do with statistics like this?" the midfielder asked reporters. 

 "It's for you guys to keep track, i don't care. The big games are the ones you want to play and win. 

 "I prefer to play in that than when there is nobody there. Professionals want to play in front of 50,50, 70, 80 thousand people and it makes it worthwhile. You train all your life to get to the big stages". 

 De Bruyne will certainly start and he will hoping to be the man to pull the strings and score the goals.

    De Brunye is stubborn. Why??? Because he knew the Anfield atmosphere. Most players who talked like the way he talked had suffered there.

Should Manchester City pay £80m for Leicester City defender Caglar Soyuncu?

Leicester City has reportedly rejected Manchester City's £38m bid to sign their highly rated defender Caglar Soyuncu.  According to the Sun, the foxes want City to up their bid to £80-90m for the 23-year-old Turkish international who they feel possess similar quality to Harry Maguire {£80m} and Virgil van Dijk {£75m}.  Soyuncu is without doubt a top football who is growing in strength and stature under the tutelage of Brendan Rodgers. But with City struggling in their defensive unit due to injuries to their top defenders Aymeric Laporte and John Stones, the need to sign a defender is now a priority.  But signing Soyuncu for £80m looks too desperate and a to many a complete waste of money.  So should City sign him for £80m or less?

West Ham in advanced negotiation to sign Liverpool defender

West Ham are reportedly closing in on signing Liverpool fullback Nathaniel Clyne.  The 27-year-old England international have found it difficult holding down a regular playing berth under Jurgen Klopp due to injuries and fatigue problems.  In fact, his biggest problem now is Trent Alexander Arnold- that boy is simply world class.  He is Liverpool's most creative player and the one player who creates more goal-scoring chances that the entire midfield combined.  To further prove his worth, he has a Guinness  World Record for the Most by a defender {22}. This season he already has 9.  Clyne will cost any team interested in his service $12m to sign including West Ham.

CAF Awards: Is Sadio Mane really better than Man City star Riyad Mahrez

Its difficult to understand why Sadio Mane is the 2019 Africa Footballer of the Year whereas Riyad Mahrez lifted more trophies than him in Europe {4 to 1} and edge past in the final of the Africa Cup of Nation.  Mahrez helped Algeria win the Africa Cup for the Nation for the first time in 25-years which frankly should be enough to make him Africa's best player. He was simply unstoppable in Egypt and his three goals and 4 assists ensured Algeria where champions not Senegal or host nation Egypt.  CAF's decision to pick Sadio Mane ahead of Riyad Mahrez is simply because of Liverpool's winning streak and his immerse contribution to their course and nothing else. The organizing body failed to see the impact of Mahrez during league and cup matches with Manchester City as well as his world class impact during the just concluded Africa Cup of Nation.  With Algeria, he was simply unstoppable, he created more chances than Mane and Salah combined and scored the needed goals...

De Bruyne reveals Manchester City most underrated player

Kevin de Bruyne has lauded praises on Fernandinho who he says is the club's most underrated player.  Fernandinho impact at City have been huge, he is arguably the club's best defensive midfielder and the one of the top 3 defensive midfielders in world football.  But as he ages, Pep Guardiola decided it was time he switched from a more defensive role into a full blow centre-back which has impressed De Bruyne.  Asked about his vice-captain, De Bruyne said: "Dinho can play everywhere. Since i came here he's been really under-rated", he told Sky Sports.  "For me he was one of the best defensive midfielders in the world, and now he just comes in as central defender and does what he does.  "Props to him, because obviously he is 35 and it's not easy to play a new position, especially when you've never done it in the 14 years before that".  Fernandinho is on course to sign a one year contract with Manchester City.

The sad reason why Liverpool can't win the Caraboa Cup?

Liverpool are competing in five fronts this season {the World Club Cup, the Champions League, the Premier League, the FA Cup and the Caraboa Cup} and every fan will be dreaming of seeing them win it all. But achieving that fate will be hard knowing that Jurgen Klopp's team is thin at the moment and lacks the fire power to push in all front. Apart from Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane there's nobody else in the team that can guarantee Liverpool 20 goals in all competition this season.  Divorck Origi though is an exception but the 25-year-old Belgium international is more of an impact substitute rather than a game change.  With that in mine would it be smart to risk Salah, Firmino and Mane- who is already suffering from a dead leg and knock- in the Caraboa?  Is the Caraboa Cup so important that Jurgen Klopp will be willing to risk the world best trio in a $2m worth cup.  If no, then there's no point prioritize the match knowing that Liv...
