Kevin De Bruyne's honest opinion on Mikel Arteta amid touchline scuffle during Arsenal vs City

Kevin De Bruyne was imperious during Manchester City's 3-1 victory over Arsenal on Wednesday evening.

The Belgian playmaker broke the deadlock in the first half at the Emirates Stadium following a costly error from Gunners right-back Takehiro Tomiyasu. Tomiyasu tried to roll the ball back to goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale but De Bruyne anticipated the pass before using his supposedly weaker left foot to chip the onrushing keeper with an exquisite first-time finish.

Bukayo Saka then equalised for the north London outfit, converting a penalty after referee Anthony Taylor adjudged City goalkeeper Ederson to have fouled Eddie Nketiah in the box. But the visitors went up a level after the break and it was De Bruyne who was at the centre of it all.
