Manchester City 5-1 Leicester City: 5 Talking Points

#3 Weekly reminder: Kevin De Bruyne is a genius

Three assists in 90 minutes...just another day in the life of the magician

Kevin De Bruyne's matchday schedule must be something like this: Wake up, warm up, destroy opponents, repeat.

It really has become a tedious job to find complimentary words for this man. Kevin De Bruyne is producing performances of sheer quality week-in-week-out which makes his outing against Leicester just another day in the Belgian's life.

His first assist on the night for Sterling's opener was particularly eye-catching. The midfielder did not even look up before launching a pinpoint cross. Just too much for the defenders to put a foot in and not hit well enough for the keeper to make a dash for it. Genius!

De Bruyne delivered three assists on the night, the first time that he has achieved this in a match. He has taken his tally to 14 assists this season, eclipsing Neymar (11) as the highest assist maker in Europe.

77 - Since his Werder Bremen debut in August 2012, Kevin De Bruyne has provided 77 assists in Europe's big 5 leagues, more than any other player in that time (Lionel Messi, 76). Generous. pic.twitter.com/0Nxo3n6aa1
