Logs 16 crosses in loss De Bruyne created two chances from 16 crosses (four accurate) and took two shots (one on target) during Saturday's 2-1 loss to Brentford.
Impact De Bruyne put in another exceptional performance but a lack of finishing in the box sunk his team's chance of finishing top of the table during the World Cup Break. As De Bruyne even made a goal-saving block in stoppage time, his energy hasn't shown many limits over the first half of the season. If Belgium is to advance further in Qatar, De Bruyne will be important to any chances of success.

Draws key penalty De Bruyne took two shots (one on goal), created five chances on 13 crosses (five accurate) and drew a decisive penalty during Saturday's 2-1 win over Fulham.
Impact De Bruyne only logged one assist in his final six games before the World Cup but still scored twice in that time and looks to be in prime form, notably drawing the game-winning penalty for Erling Haaland to put away. A stunning three goals and 12 assists in 17 league and UCL appearances puts De Bruyne into an exceptional place heading into the World Cup.

Scores from free kick De Bruyne scored one goal from five shots (two on goal) and created four chances from 11 crosses (four accurate) during Saturday's 1-0 win over Leicester City.
Impact De Bruyne prevented his team from going scoreless for a fourth time in five matches thanks to a perfectly taken free kick in the second half. As there may have been no other way to score against an in-form Danny Ward in goal, De Bruyne showed off why this season could be one of his best heading into the World Cup. Though he hasn't recorded an assist in his last four starts, he's now scored in two consecutive appearances.

Scores goal against Brighton De Bruyne scored a goal and created three chances in Saturday's 3-1 victory against Brighton. He also won two of two tackles in the match.
Impact De Bruyne once again makes the extraordinary look ordinary as he sealed Saturday's result with an excellent strike from distance. It was his second goal of the season as he's mostly been focused on feeding Erling Haaland, but he can still come up with a moment of genius in front of goal at any point in time.

Creates three chances De Bruyne had one shot (zero on goal), seven crosses (one accurate), and three chances created in Sunday's 1-0 defeat against Liverpool.
Impact De Bruyne may have been held off the scoresheet but the volume didn't leave the playmaker, as he still created three chances in the loss. De Bruyne remains the gold standard for floor and creativity for fantasy managers, and will still be an elite option in all matches moving forward. De Bruyne has produced one goal and 11 assists in all competitions, while creating 40 chances.
