Manchester City's 3-0 win over Arsenal on December 15 was a resounding victory for the Citizens, and Kevin De Bruyne's post-match analysis has shed light on the reasons behind their success.
According to De Bruyne, Arsenal's defense was struggling enough, and their attacking players did little to help at the back. He pointed out that Arsenal's quartet of Aubameyang, Mesut Ozil, Nicholas Pepe, and Gabriel Martinelli looked potent on paper but failed to deliver.
De Bruyne explained that an attacking side usually finds it difficult to break down a defense if the opponents are defending as a unit, including the players up front. He noted that Arsenal's defense was not cohesive, allowing Manchester City to exploit the gaps.
De Bruyne's analysis has sparked debate among football fans, with some criticizing Arsenal's players for their lack of work ethic and others praising De Bruyne's tactical insight.
As reported by TUKO.co.ke, De Bruyne's heroics on the pitch were matched by his brilliant post-match interview, which has gone viral on social media.
