Good lord.
What sort of devil work is at play here.
And then not even David Silva.
It's a fix / conspiracy I tell thee.
Is the PFA award not the one which is voted 1-2 months ago, at which point he was in line with Kane for being the highest goalscorer.
I would have thought with footballers being footballers they may have seen past the final step of the player putting the ball in the net which of course is hugely important. De Bruyne has been magnificent all season, the orchestrator in chief of the best team in the league by a mile.
A very harsh call I would suggest.
"Plenty of strikers can score goals," he said, gesturing to the famous old stands casting shadows around us.
"But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."
