Such an impact player.. makes a mark on almost every game.
please never get injured
please never get injured
that was so good. Good players just have that picture in their heads, every player is mapped out and he knows what he wants to do as soon as it falls to him.That volley when he smashed it first time from the throw in and switched the play to another side was a thing of beauty in itself. Just showed his level of confidence.
What's the meaning behind his cupped ears celebration?
Wait until you compare their defensive stats. People keep saying he’s playing as a support striker but what support striker ever did as much defensive works as Bruno?!
I think somebody said it already.
Forget the goals for a moment.
That moment where he cross-field volleys it almost behind himself straight at the feet of Wan-Bissaka...
My word. This man is brilliant.
Yeah, that's the one. Just smashed it straight into AWB feet. Jaw-dropping moment.

The technique to smash a volley with that power over your shoulder ridiculous
Not only world class but also never injured, what will impact this stat in his favor.
By the way, Kane stats are pretty sick for a guy playing for Tottenham and with some injury problems.
You'd get slaughtered fairly for illogical statements. Not world class, but capable of world class moments, that's the definition of an oxymoron.May get slaughtered but for me he isnt world class. What he does have is the ability to produce world class game changing moments. He also works and works and works....which is brilliant for the team, I just hope we can give him rests this season though as he ran himself into the ground last season and it showed after Christmas, he was giving the ball away often and looke dmentally and physically tired which culminated in his showign at the Euros, we need to try and keep him as fresh as possible for the business end of the season I feel
It reminds me of what some people used to say about prime Rooney.You'd get slaughtered fairly for illogical statements. Not world class, but capable of world class moments, that's the definition of an oxymoron.

Not at all, for me world class players are showing consistent quality with what they do throughout the game week in week out for the majority of the season. Fernandes doesnt, I would actually say he was very poor the last third of last season, consistently losing the ball again and again,but as he was still producing certain moments of quality with a great work ethic, he wasnt getting criticised like many others.

That's because most people watch highlights and don't dissect every move/min of the game like we do for ManUtd players.
I just think the world class label is bandied about too easily. I obviously think he has been a great signing and made a big difference for us and his stats stand up against anybodies, but if you were to compare what he does on the ball throughout 90mins with an obvious example of DeBruyne there simply isnt the same consistecy of quality throughout a game.
I read today apparently our scouts were not convinced of us signing him as they thought he gave the ball away too much. Seems ludicrous to a degree now, but can see those concerns at the same time. I think he is an excellent player with an excellent attitude that has rubbed of on others, and obviously delighted he is playing for us....but in all honesty if I was thinking up a world eleven, I wouldnt even consider him as good as he has been, because I dont think he is world class
Being the 2nd best attacking midfielder in the world for me counts as being world class, especially when he's been the most productive player in the biggest league since he came here without being a striker. And statistically there is very, very little to separate De Bruyne and him in influence, creativity, progression, touches per game, carelessness, whatever the case. I do think De Bruyne is a bit better with him being a bit more dynamic with his carrying and being more 2 footed, but other than that it's very close (and Bruno is much more of a goalscorer anyway, which counts for a lot).I just think the world class label is bandied about too easily.

Yeah. I said it a while ago but Rooney is who Bruno reminds me of in a lot of ways despite being different stylistically, Bruno being more midfielder than Rooney as a forward, but their overall influence in games is similar IMO.It reminds me of what some people used to say about prime Rooney.
Even one who is considered the GOAT, Messi, tends to be invisible for large parts of gamesYeah, this doesn't happen. Week in, week out sure. In game throughout 90, doesn't happen a lot. You're basing things off of highlights/nostalgia.
Or Ronaldo.Even one who is considered the GOAT, Messi, tends to be invisible for large parts of games

Exactly. It's fecking mad to expect them to be involved every single minutesOr Ronaldo.
Haha... I keep reading this and it's driving me nuts cuz I missed it. Any gifs of it? Or what time it was? Maybe @GifLord can help me here? Thanks
Finally found it

Tbh, it is mainly because he has not won big prizes yet. Big moments are the ones when players win them.I think people are just looking for iconic moments from Bruno in the biggest games. That's fine.
He's definitely our best player and world class. Would be heavily desired by some of the biggest sides in the world. But not a lot of memorable moments against massive oppo under his belt.
He didnt even look at AWB. This takes the no look pass to a whole new level.My Mrs, who doesn't follow or watch football was watching with me and literally gasped when he played that ball. She couldn't wrap her head around how you just do that.
