Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola says Kevin de Bruyne is behind only Lionel Messi as the best player in the world after another star performance.
Kimmich broke into Bayern’s first team through the guidance of the new City manager and believes that he will have a major influence on the game in England.
Belgium worldwide De Bruyne scored City’s first goal in Saturday’s rout of the Cherries, and his all-round display had his new coach purring with delight.
Guardiola added: “Messi is on a table on his own”.
Keown watched the Citizens taken Bournemouth apart and then Guardiola’s comments afterwards, and was left with the clear impression the former Barcelona coach still wants more from his squad. He sees absolutely everything.
“Every time he makes the right decision. I’m feeling good every time I play with my team-mates, playing to instruction to play good”. That is why he is a player on another level. My target is now to be happy today, drink a little bit of wine and prepare the [next] game – and of course I am going to try to win that League Cup game [at Swansea City], there is no doubt about that. We played like a small team without the ball and that is why I’m so proud.
De Bruyne, 25, was the man of the match in City’s 2-1 win at derby rivals Manchester United last weekend, scoring their opening goal and helping tee up Iheanacho for what proved to be the victor.
Never before has a Guardiola team scored so many or conceded so few in his first eight games.
However, City – who also recorded their first clean sheet of the campaign – remain top of the table, while Bournemouth are 16th.
Manchester City got its 5th win since the beginning of the league after defeating Bournemouth 4-0.
I know we will lose (at some point) and the important thing is when that happens we are stable, just like we’re stable now.
“Bournemouth are the best side we have faced this season”, Guardiola told BBC Radio Five Live.

“They were better than us but I’m disappointed with our performance”.
