Pep Guardiola urged not to put pressure on Kevin De Bruyne

Manchester City certainly failed to create chances in their loss against Aston Villa. After the game, this led to the fans asking Pep to rush Kevin De Bruyne into the team. But, club legend Nedum Onuoha does not want him rushed back. He said, “I know the guy is pining for a through ball or a De Bruyne banger from 20 yards out, but this is health, this is medicine, this is what it’s going to be and when he’s ready I’m sure he’ll come back in and I’m sure he’ll be very rusty to start with as well.” 

There remains a ray of hope for City fans that Kevin De Bruyne will return to fitness soon. However, the latest update from manager Pep Guardiola will cause concern among the fans.
