De Bruyne scored twice at Crystal Palace to help keep up the pressure on Premier League title rivals Liverpool and Arsenal.
Pep Guardiola hailed Kevin De Bruyne as “one of the best players in the history of Manchester City” after the Belgian scored two goals in their 4-2 victory at Crystal Palace.
Odsonne Edouard clawed one back for Palace late on, but Guardiola praised the influence of Belgium playmaker De Bruyne as City kept up the pressure on Premier League title rivals Liverpool and Arsenal.City boss Guardiola said: “Today Kevin won the game. Without Kevin today maybe we would not be able to win, so when we talk about tactics, about managers, having players like Kevin in these kinds of games, it’s easy.
De Bruyne told his club’s website: “Yeah, it’s funny. I had a conversation with Erling and Phil and said the only goal I want is to score 100 before you guys.“It’s a proud moment. It means that I’ve had longevity here. It means a lot of good moments for this club.” “The mental energy that we waste more than physicality is tremendous and that’s why sometimes that happens.”Palace have still won just one match since Oliver Glasner replaced Roy Hodgson in February.
