Kevin De Bruyne is too stupid for words. How many times is he going to pop from outside the box when there's a perfectly good open player making a run on the flanks and players getting in the box?

Seems people have decided De Bruyne is shit simply because Chelsea/Mourinho got rid of him. Anyone that follows German football and their NT knows he's one of the better prospects in the World in his position.
Good guesswork. I imagine there would be something made out of it if Fellaini/Januzaj was posting a similar thing reg. England-USA.
Oh please, calm down man... Is the game frustrating you that much?
De Bruyne is basically a glorified Tony Cleverley isn't he?
I must be watching a different match to the commentators and pundits. All I see is a team with 10 men behind the ball who very occasionally break, not a team who is constantly going for it.
How the feck has he been shit? Jesus Christ.
His stats are underwhelming because he's a 19 year old kid that mostly played as a winger at Lille.
BBC got a bunch of odd looking fellows for this baby thing..
This world cup started with a flurry of goals now hardly any. I guess when it boils down to the best of the best that's what happens.
It's been a very open game, especially in comparison to other matches this round.
How the feck has he looked good? Are you serious? Ball control is horrible, touch is lacking, gives it away whenever he attempts to dribble at them, picks the wrong passes. Not impressive at all.
Germany-Algeria was very entertaining, Colombia gave us two great goals, even the games that have been mostly poor have delivered the drama in the end.
Sounds like Fellaini.
Media so obsessed about whether this is the turning point in Americans adopting soccer.
Rio thinks Fellaini is best off the striker, like most people.
I doubt they ever will, Baseball and Gridiron will always be the dominant sports.
BlueCelery having a meltdown every time somebody says something bad about the Belgians. 
Lalas and Ballack doing VW commercials together.
Pretty damning from Rio about Fellaini. Says his best position is up top, can do a job in midfield but is way better up top behind the striker. Knows getting a game up top isn't exactly easy with all the competition for that spot at United.
Ya certainly not 10 behind the ball. The US is just shit in possession so it looks more defensive.

I was just joking mate
i seriously think that there should be an "ironic" font or something

There is.
His close control is poor though, its nice to have all that speed but if you cant control the ball then you just end up being another aaron lennon
We are over staffed in that position.Someone as to go.
Brilliant again from T-Ho
Indeed.
What I dont get is, Belgium have a magnificent squad. Strong on all fronts. Class goalie, class defenders, strong midfield, fast and skillful wingers and a superb striker. However, they play like Greece did at '00.¨
Well not really, but, considering their offensive talent they look like they're lacking some endgame.

Tim Howard the idiot
Some have expectations of fellaini that are not compatible with the role he plays for belgium. he's a midfielder on defense only, as soon as his team gets possession he sprints forward and becomes a target man.
now if you're saying that he's not doing that well that's one thing... but being a statue near the box is what he's being asked to do in attack and he is working pretty hard.

Yeah ,can't see it either.
if tim howard is so fapped over, why has he never moved to a cl level side after leaving us in shame? do teams still hold his horrific performance against porto against him?
I thought so , but the idiot on BBC is saying he could of caught it and put him team under pressure.
fellaini is boring
J-Rod is a better nickname
Maybe he likes where he is?
He found a stable club and seems to be flourishing there.
add Basketball to that and football will never get a massive following.
Baseball is a dying sport
