De Bruyne says winning the FA Cup and qualifying for the Champions League would be the perfect ending to his time at Manchester City.

On whether he is looking forward to playing on: “It’s been a tough season, having a hernia wasn’t fun. But I’ve been playing pain free recently.

“I don’t know what’s going to happen but hopefully I can play on.”

Kevin De Bruyne says he didn’t think Man City should have been 2-0 down.

“I think overall it was a good performance.

“I’m going to enjoy every minute until the end of the season.

“The most important thing is that this club is playing Champions League football next season.”
