There’s a reason when City fans watch episode 6 of the Together: Treble Winners documentary, the most viewed moment is Pep crying, hugging KDB and telling him “we did it, Kev, we did it, seven years of fighting… we did it.” Not Rodri’s goal.
But why Kevin? Because he sacrificed his own leg, played through pain in the hostility of the Bernabéu, and fired in a strike that Courtois will never forget.
Then took us to the Champions League final with a masterclass at the Etihad in the return leg, a night so electric that Vini Jr himself in his documentary admits the KDB chant carried an aura he’s never experienced anywhere else.
THAT IS OUR GINGER KING. KEVIN DE BRUYNE. LEGEND. GOAT. 🐐 🩵
Tus lágrimas son las nuestras, Capitán 👑🇦🇷
Nos diste las alegrías más grandes de nuestras vidas. Gracias por la entrega, por la magia y por dar la vida hasta el último segundo 🙌

Rodri is the best midfielder on the planet. I’m not talking best defensive midfielder, best holding midfielder, best attacking midfielder. Bring your 10s, your 8s, your 6s, whoever you want. Not a single one of them touches the intelligence, the sheer work this man puts in on that pitch. He’s killing off transitions and counter attacks like it’s nothing while simultaneously being the best metronome in the entire game. The gap between him and everyone else is enormous.
