‘Best player in the Premier League’ – some fans laud Man City midfielder after West Ham win

Manchester City enjoyed a 2-0 win over West Ham United on Wednesday evening and Kevin De Bruyne was one of many players lauded by supporters for his performance.

The 28-year-old delivered a man-of-the-match display at the Etihad Stadium, having a hand in both goals on the night, while creating numerous opportunities and being at the heart of nearly every attack.

City’s first goal came from Rodrigo in the 30th minute – the 23-year-old headed home De Bruyne’s corner. The creator turned goalscorer for City’s second goal, firing an effort past Lukasz Fabianski after fine work from Bernardo Silva in the build-up.
