I Now See Myself As A Leader At Man City – KDB

Manchester City midfielder, Kevin De Bruyne believes he is one of the leaders at the club.

This is coming after his brilliant performance vs Chelsea, where he netted Man City’s equalizer as Pep’s team came from behind to defeat the London club 2-1 at the Etihad Stadium.

The win took the defending champions up to 3rd position, 1 point behind impressive Leicester City but nine points behind Liverpool.

Speaking after the game, the Belgian said he now sees himself as a leader at the club after Vincent Kompany’s exit and David Silva’s upcoming move away from the club.

His words, “I push myself [to be] the best I can be. If you set goals to be the best, you always push yourself hard,”

“That’s what I did when I was a teenager and that’s what I’m doing now. It’s a little bit more important that the team wins now, but I just work hard.

“The main thing is that I’m helping the team, I’m helping these guys, leading them, especially the younger guys. I know I can make a difference to them.

“I just push myself. There’s nobody who puts more pressure on me than myself. It’s not difficult for me to work hard and to push myself to the limit. Sometimes you have good games, some other times you don’t, but even when you play average or bad, you still have to do your job and help the team.

“I’m a midfielder, so I’m there to help the team the best I can and make the team play good together. That’s my main focus.”

“We work really hard and the main thing, when you lose a game, is to come back with a good reaction,”

“That’s what we have always done over the last four or five years. I think it’s very rare to see us lose two games in a row. We have a lot of quality to make the difference.”
