Kevin De Bruyne and Riyad Mahrez have formed a brilliant understanding of late with the pair both scoring during the 2-0 victory over Sheffield United on Sunday.
City are blessed with some incredible attacking talent but these two appear to share a special bond and it has not gone unnoticed with the fans, with many suggesting that they are two of the best in the world at the moment.

What do we think?
Kevin De Bruyne is arguably the most complete player in the Premier League. The Belgian will no doubt go down as one of the divisions all-time greats and he and Riyad Mahrez certainly bring the best out of each other.
Although the Algerian doesn’t always start, when he does, his combination play with the former Chelsea man, in particular, has caught the eyes of many. Between them, they’ve scored a combined 12 league goals and provided no fewer than 20 assists for their team-mates.
City take on a resurgent Everton on New Years Day and it remains to be seen whether Mahrez will start but one thing is for certain: if De Bruyne is deemed fit enough he should be one of the first names on Pep Guardiola’s team sheet.
