So you can see Manchester City, already the runes, they are never into feet, they're always into space.

They know where the ball is going to go.

I just feel Kevin De Bruyne, with the intensity that he brings in his play, he makes him a unique playmaker in world football at the moment.

Paulo, you're not going to find another player.

In the World Cup, he played as a sitting midfielder, as a number six.

Then he played in other games as a number eight, having a bit more flexibility in between the boxes.

He played as a number 10.

It's as comfortable to find space in between the lines.

And even against Brazil, he played as a false number nine.

Totally.

It doesn't work on systems.

Kevin works on space and how he can hurt the opposition.

And he's got the ability to turn.

He can turn in any space and then execute a pass with right and left.

Technically so gifted.

Normally you get gifted players, technically.

But it doesn't go along with that physicality, that intensity.

I've never seen a player that can execute passes in transition in any counter-attack.

His precision is immaculate.

So that's why the uniqueness is to have that physicality and the technical ability that he possesses.
