Micah Richards

And that's just as it is.

They've been so good these last two seasons and it's hard to maintain those standards.

Yeah.

could could be beat i i thought that would the the standard he would set was so high but i think kevin de bruyne is taking it to the next level it's like he had a force field around him today where no one was allowed to tackle him to get close and it it's because he's just so good i mean he sees passes that are

unbelievable that you're thinking how many hours he's seen that it's the weight of pass he can another assist another assist but he can hit passes along the floor with such devastating pace and it's all they're always so inviting the passes they're always at the right weight and they're always cutting open defenses and i

And it wasn't just what he did with the ball today.

It was also without it.

There was a moment when he's too new up and he chased back 30 yards for his team to win it back.

And it's just his all-round game right now.

He's just on another level.

And we're talking about player of the year.

Now, he's not in the team of the year, but for me, he is the player of the year.

And I'm not just, I think by quite a long way, with the numbers that he's doing right now, that's what I'm talking about.

I mean, things like that.

Because I think if you look at the contenders, you've got Virgil van Dijk, amazing season.

You've got people talking about Jordan Henderson.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of Jordan Henderson, even Mane.

But look at these numbers that he's...

achieving right now.

16 assists.
