De Bruyne won the Premier League Player of the Season and Professional Footballers’ Association Players’ Player of the Year in the 19/20 season, even though Manchester City didn’t win the league.
Liverpool won the title that year. Mo Salah had 19 goals and 10 assists, while Virgil van Dijk led a defence that conceded just 33 goals, the fewest in the league, and he was considered their standout player.
Meanwhile, De Bruyne finished with 13 goals and 20 assists, equalling the Premier League assist record.
Right now, Bruno Fernandes has 7 goals and 16 assists with 8 games left, and you can’t tell me he shouldn’t be ahead of Declan Rice or Gabriel in that conversation.
Arsenal fans can keep living in their delusional world we’ll show them why Manchester United is called the biggest club in the world.
