Manchester City star man Kevin De Bruyne says that Pep Guardiola’s influence on the team has made the squad believe they are capable of beating anyone.

The Belgian midfielder has been outstanding so far this season, along with every other City player so far this season, and scored his fourth goal of the campaign so far as City beat Leicester 2-0.

City remain unbeaten so far this season, and sit 8 points at the top of the Premier League table.

De Bruyne has jumped at the chance to praise manager Guardiola, who he says has given the team the confidence to beat anyone.

“[Guardiola has given us] the confidence that we can beat everybody,” said De Bruyne.

“Last year, there were games where we could have been better but we weren’t clinical enough.

“This year, even today, we could be more clinical. But we were there in the box, we are scoring more goals and I think that’s the main difference from last year.

“It’s not about me. It’s about how the team plays and the way that the team is playing makes it easier for me.

“Obviously I think it is a type of football that is good for me as a player individually.

“But I think also the way that the team is playing, it just makes it easier for everybody.”
