Pellegrini started to ponder, De Bruyne was a player he had wanted to sign during the winter break. The Belgian had shown exquisite passing skills and an attacking desire at Wolfsburg that made Pellegrini drool.
51 matches, 16 goals, 27 assists—such a big double-double. If he came to Manchester City, he would certainly boost the midfield's attacking power and fuel the fire for Manchester City's attacking football!
After all, Lampard is just a temporary transition; he won't be here next season.
But then Pellegrini thought again, isn't Tang Long also his favorite?
His goal count may not match De Bruyne's, but his assist ability is no less impressive, even stronger!
31 appearances, 7 goals, 27 assists!
Same number of assists, but Tang Long played fewer games and was more efficient.
What makes Tang Long even harder for Pellegrini to let go is that during games, he often makes godlike anticipations!
