For several days there was much talk about some words that could come from the mouth of Kevin de Bruyne during the France-Belgium (2-0) where, obviously angry, he read his lips telling Frank Vercauteren, assistant coach Domenico Tedesco, “I’ll leave it, I’ll leave it”, possibly referring to his international farewell.
Almost a week later, and in the midst of a crisis that is destroying the Belgian team, it is still not clear whether he meant these words or if they were said in the heat of battle. In any case, in England, his coach, Pep Guardiola, claimed to have noticed nothing unusual in his player. On the contrary, he said he found her “very happy.” “All I know is that he was very happy these past two days. But no, I didn’t tell him what happened.”
In the first three games (against Chelsea, Ipswich and West Ham) De Bruyne wore the captain’s armband, but the new official captain is not yet known. Will it be Belgian? “The players still have to vote and they haven’t decided when they will do that,” Guardiola said.
