Pretty much disagree with everything you say here. He didn’t look to be a central figure at all to me, looked fatigued and happy to keep possession of the ball rather than go for the more risky KDB passes. Also far from convinced he would have taken the pen. I own him, but won’t after the international break.Jason Bourne wrote:It's time to talk about Kevin. He looked to be a more central figure in the Manchester derby, and seems to be allowed the latitude from Pep to play himself in to form.

Son and his city teammate Foden seem to be the much more popular picks, but is KDB being overlooked?

Foden's shot off the post was from a KDB pass, and there was a cross that fell to him at the back post that he shanked horribly wide in the second half. And he was heavily involved in possession, and is the number one penalty taker unless something has changed? Not the usual KDB sharpness we're used to but the question is will he get there or continue at this current level. Because even on current form he wasn't far off from a goal and assist.Joccki_10 wrote: ↑06 Nov 2021, 19:04Pretty much disagree with everything you say here.

Yes he’s being overlooked but appropriately so. He’s nowhere near justifying his price tag, and there’s no reason to prefer him over Foden among many.
Is there actual evidence he’s on pens?

Just one of the many, many, stunningly wide-of-the-mark takes gooberman has graced us with over the years.
I know hindsight is 20/20 but still. Just wow.
