The bad part about what City going through right now is that KDB is back, and we all know how kevin plays, that dude has been awesome ever since his return, just a couple games and he is already doing things that saves them, dude is amazing and I agree that he is going to end up being even better. But that doesn't change the fact that we are talking about a missing player yet again.
They got Kevin De Bruyne back, but they are missing Haaland right now at the same time, those two were the best duo in all of football world last season, and they haven't played any games together this season so far I think, or if any, that must be before KDB got injured. So City is not even at 100% right now and will take a while, need to get Haaland back, and both those players in 100% shape.
The return of Haaland to have the both players on pitch will be a great boost for Manchester City. When Kevin De Bruyne was out due to injury, the team was still playing good even though they were not playing on their best form that time, they were missing him in the midfield. Despite that, the performance of this team was tremendous and they were still able to maintain the first four positions in the standings.
Kevin De Bruyne return is a great addition back to the team, he has been contributing to most of their winnings since his return and that has boos the morale of the team again. Haaland return to have them both on the pitch will make this team perform better and a premier league potential title contender awaits them again this season.
Even without the presence of 2 key players, Manchester City is still playing optimally and is not experiencing a very significant decline, even though it is not as good as last season, Manchester City is still a strong candidate to win the title because Manchester City is still fighting for the top position in the standings and currently they are in 2nd place. , the return of 2 key players certainly makes Manchester City look extraordinary again and like last season because the club's strength comes from these 2 key players Erling Haaland and Kevin De Bruyne, many people miss these two players contributing again on the field and providing frightening attacks opposing club.
Yes, since Kevin De Bruyne returned he immediately helped Manchester City win, it's proven that even though he was absent for a long time, it seems like his potential is still quite good. So Pep Guardiola is not worried about player does not lose its best performance.
