Manchester City hosted Chelsea on Saturday in a potentially pivotal clash in the race for the Premier League title.

And with the two sides deadlocked for 70 minutes, it needed a moment of magic to open the game up.

That’s exactly what De Bruyne provided when he wriggled away from an N’Golo Kanté challenge before beautifully bending in the game’s opening goal.

Make that five goal involvements in his last five games against his former club.

5 - Kevin De Bruyne has now scored five goals against former club Chelsea in the Premier League; the most by a player against the Blues after having previously played for them in the competition. Tormentor.

21 - Kevin De Bruyne has scored 21 Premier League goals from outside the box; the most of any player since his first season with Manchester City (2015-16), and the joint-most of any Man City player in the competition’s history (level with Sergio Agüero). Artist.

José Mourinho has a lot to answer for.
