When Kevin de Bruyne played against West Ham, he appeared like a man on a mission and against Tottenham, the Belgian kicked into another gear altogether, running the Spurs ragged with his attacking style of play.

de Bruyne was on song right from the first minute against Tottenham, playing sleek football with Bernardo Silva on the right, and using the movements of Sterling on the left. His first assist was a masterstroke, as he passed to Silva and hung back instead of offering support in the wings. On receiving the ball, de Bruyne curled a loopy ball towards the center as Raheem Sterling calmly headed the ball into the net.

The second goal was again created by the Belgian with a run down the right and a perfect delivery into the box, as Sergio Aguero timed his run perfectly and scored. From the game,de Bruyne earned two assists to his name, 39/46 completed passes, and a staggering nine key passes.
