Manchester City’s star midfielder is the main creative and attacking force of Pep Guardiola’s team. City’s attacking shortcomings at time were clearly visible when the Belgian was out on the sidelines due to an injury.

However, he is now fit and without a doubt a main part of the team. His assist for Aguero’s goal against Middlesbrough was simply world class. The midfielder is also a constant threat from set pieces and is surely worth the premium price that he is available at.

His next fixture is against Crystal Palace who have been dismantled by top oppositions this year. The London club’s defensive vulnerability makes De Bruyne a solid choice for this coming gameweek.

Next 3 fixtures: Crystal Palace(A), Burnley(A),Chelsea(H)
