Because of a lackluster 3 league appearances during his time at Chelsea – spending most of his time away on loan – few people are aware of de Bruyne’s capability in midfield. In fact, his stats suggest he is one of the most prolific assisters and scorers of goals

Newspapers have touted him the new Eden Hazard, but that is because most newspaper journalists are bloody lazy and can only manage comparison with somebody else from Belgium who is already playing football in England.

But even if he is remotely like Hazard, football in England would be incredibly amenable to him. But considering he made 44 appearances at Wolfsburg last season, scoring 18 goals and assisting a further 26 that makes for some pretty tantalizing stattage.
