A very surprising choice

Kevin de Bruyne picked Moussa Dembele in his dream five-a-side team - and went on to say his Belgian team-mate is the best player in the world at five-a-side.

The Manchester City midfielder was the latest player at the club to get in front of their YouTube cameras and pick his five-a-side team made up of players he's played with in his career.

He had a decent shortlist to pick from, having played for Chelsea, Werder Bremen, Wolfsburg and now City in his career, as well as the Belgium national team.

De Bruyne includes current team-mates Joe Hart, Vincent Kompany and Sergio Aguero in his team with former Wolfsburg pal Luiz Gustavo getting a spot too. But we were surprised to see Tottenham midfielder Dembele included - and the City midfielder go on to call his compatriot the best player in the world:

De Bruyne has himself been hugely impressive since moving to Manchester in the summer, but didn't find a space for himself in the team. Tottenham fans who have been loving Dembele over recent seasons will be delighted with his comments though. It seems their midfielder is starting to get the plaudits he deserves.
