Manchester City's slim win tonight against Newcastle is a another point to prove that they've greatly missed the presence of Kelvin De Bruyne as they've struggled to win their last two matches since the Belgian picked up injury.
Of course, de Bruyne's absence really had a big impact on Man City's performance. He is one of Man City's key players. So, of course, it cannot be denied that the injury he experienced in his first match certainly had a significant impact on Man City. And Man City will have to deal with this at least until he fully recovers.
De Bruyne is Man City's mainstay midfielder. This really had quite an effect on Man City. Moreover, based on information, De Bruyne's injury was quite severe, so he should probably be absent until the end of the year.
This is bad.
If he has to be absent for that long, Man City should seriously look for ways so that their performance is not much different when de Bruyne is around. Even though it certainly won't be the same, because after all, Man City will definitely lose one of its strengths, de Bruyne can be said to be quite difficult to replace.
