Kelvin De Bruyne's injury is one that'll last a while and may likely cause him to loose from upon recovery, he'd need some time off to get back himself and his agility to match Guardiola's football, he's a quick picking player and he's going to be able to bounce back, no doubt City misses him as he's got this special effect he gives to the team, a few things has changed since his absence and his absence is felt in a minut level.
Man City's strength decreased quite a lot when De Bruyne was hit by an injury which forced him to be absent for several months and even now he has not been able to strengthen the team again. The recovery must be truly total and maximal so that undesirable things don't happen again. Man City is currently even worse. There are several other big players who were injured while they were strengthening their country's national team. Even Haalan and I are currently suffering from injuries. This is really bad, because after all, Man City's strength will decline again.
Yes that's true because it was do to how creative he is in times of creating scoring opportunities because the way he handles the midfield there is nobody in Manchester City can play that role the way he does. So his injury was actually a great setback to Manchester City because they were seriously affected and that period Haaland was finding it difficult to score because there was nobody to assist him the way Kelvin de Bruyne does.
But I'm happy that Manchester City was able to improve on there performance, so with how impressive they are playing now is very difficult to notice the absence of de Bruyne because they were able to close all the position, and with the way they are currently playing I'm seeing them to become the premier League champion this season.
