P. Guardiola: De Bruyne is only worse than Messi

After another convincing victory in the Premier League, Manchester City coach Pep Guardiola praised the safety of his team Kevin De Bruyne.

According to the coach, the Belgian is one of the best players he has ever trained. In fact, he is only behind Lionel Messi, the world's best player, by five ranks.

It is worth noting that Guardiola has worked with a whole bunch of stars in his career - Arjen Robben, Andres Iniesta, and Xavi are just a few examples.

"He is one of the best players I have ever worked with," said the former coach of Barcelona and Bayern Munich. "In this list, Messi is exceptional, but Kevin is right behind him."

De Bruyne, 25, is having a great season. So far, in 5 English league matches, he has scored two goals and made three assists.
