KEVIN DE BRUYNE put in a display of the highest quality as Manchester City returned to their old selves to see off Leicester on Saturday evening.

The Belgian’s performance was a feat of strength, skill and endurance, and his team had to show resilience, too, after they went behind to a Jamie Vardy strike midway through the first half.

The Leicester speedster sprinted beyond Fernandinho and lifted his finish over Ederson. Manchester City manager, Pep Guardiola, knew that such a chance might arise.
