Your support makes all the difference.Kevin De Bruyne has certainly made an impact since joining Manchester City for a club record £55million in the summer.
The Belgian now has five goals and five assists in just eight matches in sky blue, the latest of which dug City out of a deep hole in the Champions League group.
His injury-time goal in the 2-1 victory against Sevilla puts City in a decent position going into the second half of their group.
Despite his individual heroics, De Bruyne paid tribute to a team effort which had earned a valuable victory.
The Belgian told BT Sport: "We tried everything to look for the victory. Thankfully, in the end, we could sccore.
"We have a team to attack. I think even Sevilla are very good and very good in possession so we have to try to get the three points."
City goalkeeper Joe Hart was not too concerned that the home side were not always assured in defence.
He said: "We're working hard a s a team. We appreciate that we're quite an attacking team. We're going to leave ourselves a little short at the back sometimes.
"It's certainly somewhere we want to improve but we want to improve all over the pitch to be the team that we want to be.
"Sevilla have definitely earned (the right) to be in this competition. They've won a lot of trophies over recent years and they made it really difficult for us tonight. I think they would have been more happy with a draw than we would."
